ABOUT ALIGN WELLNESS
We built the program we wished existed.
ALIGN exists because too many people lose weight on medication, then regain it the moment they stop. We built something designed to make results last.
Reset your metabolism. Transform your life.
A clinically guided system for lasting weight loss—
powered by proven medication, expert coaching, and real human support.
Accountability. Intention. Real Change.
Our Mission and Vision
Our Mission
To help people lose weight and keep it off for good by combining the best of modern medicine with expert coaching, real nutrition, and lasting behavioral change.
Our Vision
To redefine weight loss care by treating it as a complete transformation, clinical, physical, and behavioral, not just a prescription that ends when the medication does.
What We Believe
- Medication should be a bridge, not a crutch
- Muscle is strength, confidence, and longevity
- Coaching creates clarity, structure, and momentum
- Real change is built over 12 months, not hacked in 12 weeks
- No one should have to do this alone
Who We Are
We Saw the Gap. So We Built the Solution.
ALIGN was founded by Doug Dorsey, The Fitness Professor, a Professor of Business at CT State.
After years of watching clients lose weight and regain it.
In ALIGN, Doug is not a figurehead. He personally designs your nutrition plan, hosts weekly live office hours, reviews monthly nutrition audits, and created the 16-week Perfect Scale maintenance program that carries every ALIGN graduate from goal weight to medication-free independence.
ALIGN is available nationwide through a fully virtual model.
Because the medication is just one part. The system is what makes it last.
Midlife Unleashed Podcast. Doug hosts weekly conversations built for women in their 40s and 50s.
Why ALIGN Is Different
We’re not just handing out prescriptions. We’re giving you the support, structure, and expert care to succeed, with or without medication.
Who It's For
Who ALIGN Is Built For
If any of these sound like you, ALIGN was designed with you in mind.
Adults in their 40s and 50s who are done with crash diets and ready for something that lasts
Busy people who need to lose weight without losing muscle or spending hours in the gym
People navigating menopause, low testosterone, or hormonal changes that have made weight loss feel impossible
Anyone who has tried every diet, every program, and every app, and still can’t understand why nothing sticks
People who started a medication-only GLP-1 program, lost the weight, came off the medication, and regained everything, because the program never gave them the habits, nutrition plan, or behavioral foundation to hold onto the results.
If you’ve tried everything and nothing has worked, you are not broken. ALIGN is the support, structure, and expertise you’ve been missing.
