I highly recommend Dr. Felber for anyone wanting to get healthier and stronger! Not only is she a wonderful person, she truly wants to help others achieve their goals.
Rachel makes fitness and nutrition simple and achievable, and has a great way of explaining things. Because of her medical background, Dr. Felber has a way of breaking down health and fitness in a way that’s not only fun, but actually makes sense!
Rachel understands life’s challenges, so she is great at keeping you motivated. She is tough, but also very caring and helpful which are great qualities in a coach! I can’t say enough good things about her!!

Rachel is a wonderful coach and I’m forever grateful to have found her! Her passion about health and fitness is evident through the time she spends carefully tailoring her research based programs for each client as well as the frequent communication and monitoring she provides. As a healthcare practitioner myself, I felt like she understood my lifestyle and needs and was always flexible when I needed to make any changes. I’ve had a few trainers and nutritionists throughout the years and I can whole heartedly say she has been the best!! Thank you Rachel, you’re wonderful!!

Great experience! At the time i was beginning with Dr rachel felber, i was 3 months postpartum and needing help getting back into a routine. During the 3 months, i lost 20lbs and many inches! I got the confidence to go into the gym and get outside my comfort zone. She helped structure a routine in the gym as well as helped me get into a good eating pattern. I’m very happy with my results and will take the knowledge she shared to my future health journey!

Dr. Rachel is the best! After 2 kids and an extra 10lbs of body weight, I was excited to work with Rachel to get lean! Through nutrition and fitness coaching, she helped me to drop 18lbs of body fat while building muscle. As a fellow MD, I appreciate her scientific explanations to her recommendations as well as her willingness to thoroughly research answers to questions I had before getting back to me. Her approach is efficient, allowing for this busy working Mom to keep up. I feel strong and energetic –> I can now do pushups and pullups! Totally worth it – highly recommend working with her!

I’ve worked with personal trainers before, but Rachel is the only one who has gotten me to find and feel the joy in my workouts! She listens to what my needs are, understands where I’m coming from (from a medical and human point of view), and fully celebrates every ounce of success! She motivates with completely positive energy and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Don’t think about it anymore, just DO IT!!!

From a different standpoint of fitness where fitness meets medicine. Rachel bridges her extensive medical training over to the fitness world and it shows with how she manages and forms her training programs. It’s from a holistic point of view and she values everyone who she works with. Very knowledgeable and supportive coach.

I have been working with Rachel for a little over 2 months. I’ve lost 10 pounds, at least 2″ of waste line, and gained strength. Although it’s hard work, she has been with me every step of the way and willing to help work through the journey. I highly recommend her services as results are incredible.

Im am ER Nurse and I’ve had the pleasure of working with Dr. Rachel Felber for the last 3 years and she was the one who motivated me to eat better and lose 20 pounds! I now learned what “good foods” are and stay away from the “bad ones”. She always treats her Clients with kindness and respect and I appreciate all she did for me!
Thanks Dr. Felber!!

Dr. Felber is thorough and individualizes her program to fit my needs! I have constant communication with her and she answers all my questions or concerns. The workouts are reasonable and this comes from a girl who can’t even do one push-up lol! Her nutrition program is great thanks to my adapted diet I not only lost weight but my skin hair and nails also have improved people have mentioned that not only is the weight loss noticeable but they state I even looks younger no joke! If I wasn’t so self conscious I’d add pictures. I have lost 2 dress sizes and I’m looking forward to more improvements. I am a single mom I work Monday through Friday and I am in school for my masters if I can do it so can you!!

I went in with zero exercise routine, and zero expectations. In just 6 months I’ve lost 15 lbs, inches (plural) off the waistline and crave workouts because it has me feeling so good. Working from home or behind a computer takes a toll on the body. Rachel has taught me nutritional science and backs it up with minimal cardio workouts. Really I can do more, but minimal high intensity workouts works for me now. She’ll give you the tools and will be there for you every step of the way. It’s the best investment I’ve gifted myself in ever.

“I am beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Rachel! While I was committed to working hard for my health goals, I wasn’t making progress (which has only become more challenging getting further into my 30s). Dr. Felber worked with me to track data and put the information to efficient use. I am blown away by my results and armed with the tools to continue to succeed. She held me accountable and helped me achieve results through a very busy schedule. She really does get it! I learned so much through this process as she answered all of my questions and “whys”. My balance, sleep, mindset, and gym confidence greatly improved. I was able to achieve my goal weight and am looking forward to building more strength with everything I learned. This is truly a lifestyle change with infinite rewards”

Elizabeth
I am a 59 year old woman and have been working with Rachel for a few months now, and I feel stronger and more fit than I have in years. I am in this for the long haul—been learning how to make better choices, and getting personalized guidance and caring encouragement every step of the way. Exercises and nutritional goals are chosen and constantly adjusted by Rachel to fit my exact needs, taking into account my personal challenges and physical history and abilities. I was overweight and depressed, and hating my body and how it looked in anything I wore. I was tired all the time and lacked energy, was not eating right, not exercising and didn’t want to go back to the gym. Now, in the comfort of my own home, I can get in shape and see results. I can go a whole day with energy and drive, and I’m getting muscle tone back and gradually losing weight. In fact, I may have to go down a pant size because everything is falling off! I am grateful to have someone with whom I can check in who is making sure I do the work, but also wanting it to be enjoyable and sustainable. We have weekly check-ins and I feel listened to and guided every step of the way. And because Rachel is a trained physician, I know the medical issues I have are being taken seriously, with knowledge and empathy. This is not a fad diet, it’s a regimen of high protein, low fat foods that you choose/make yourself, (nothing to buy), weight training, cardio and time, and your goals determine the time frame. What do you have to lose except some ill-fitting clothes and a poor self-image? Life is too short—take charge of your health now—you only have one body and one life—it’s time to take care of YOU! You won’t regret it. 🙂

I’ve been working with Dr. Felber for the past three months, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. In that time, I’ve lost 15 pounds, but the experience has been about so much more than just the scale. Dr. Felber’s approach is comprehensive and tailored, focusing not only on exercise but also on nutrition, which has made all the difference.
From day one, Dr. Felber took the time to understand my goals, lifestyle, and preferences. Her coaching style is both motivating and educational—she taught me how to properly fuel my body with healthy foods and how to incorporate better habits into my daily routine. The nutrition guidance has been especially valuable; it wasn’t about restrictive dieting but about making sustainable changes that actually fit my life.
The results speak for themselves. In just three months, I’ve lost 15 pounds, gained muscle tone, and feel more energized than ever.
If you’re considering a trainer who will help you achieve lasting results with a balanced, sustainable approach, I highly recommend Dr. Felber. Whether you’re looking to lose weight, improve your fitness, or simply get healthier, her service is definitely worth trying.

Working with Dr. Felber is exactly what I needed to jump start not only my fitness journey, but begin a new lifestyle journey. Her program is a great starter program for people who feel embarrassed, intimidated, or scared by the idea of going to the gym or with the concept of working out. It is also great for people like me who struggle to lose weight or even inches. I didn’t lose much weight but I did lose inches, enough to fit into all my old jeans. This program also taught me how to eat better by making better choices in food options, and taught me that with time and patience, I can feel stronger and better about myself. Working out was always hard, but the program allowed me to see change even if I wasn’t working out every single day. In 2 months, I was able to fit in my clothes again and now wearing a size small dress. The tracking of food and workouts were also very helpful. Overall, the program increased my confidence and self-esteem. I have never felt better than I do now. Dr. Felber gave me the strength and confidence I needed to keep going in my health journey and to learn to trust the process. I am forever grateful! ☺️

Investing in your health is always priceless and there’s literally no better way to do it than with a professional like Dr. Rachel.

Gabe
I’ve known Dr. Felber since we attended medical school together. She went on to become a skilled emergency physician beloved by her trainees. I know this because her trainees rotate with me and sing her praises. I couldn’t imagine a better person to work with as a weight loss and strength coach, she’s truly passionate about fitness and preventive health. What I admire most about her is how she zeroes in on strength training and metabolic health as key pillars of well-being. Not many doctors get it the way she does; she’s all about building resilience and keeping people out of the doctor’s office in the first place. Her approach is practical, no-nonsense, and rooted in real science. If you’re working with Dr. Felber, you’re getting someone who knows the body inside out. She can actually help you get stronger and healthier for the long haul. If I lived a little closer I would be working out with Rachel on the regular!

Rachel is incredibly knowledgeable about fitness and nutrition, but what makes her stand out is how relatable she is. She truly understands the challenges of balancing health goals with the demands of a busy life—whether it’s work, family, or just the unpredictability of everyday stress. Her guidance is not just expert-driven but also realistic and achievable for real people with real lives.

I have known Rachel for 20 years, and although I haven’t been a client of hers, I can say with certainty that you will not meet a more genuine and personally-invested coach than Rachel. She will make you laugh while cheerfully guiding you toward achieving optimal health and your dream body. If you don’t believe me, get set up with her free info call. Just 5 minutes of conversation will give you a taste of the enthusiasm she can provide in your fitness goals. As I have learned, healthy living is a life-long journey, and Rachel is excited to support you with that adventure. So, you are not just getting a coach – you are investing in yourself and a lifetime of healthy, sustainable habits. Best of Luck to You! Warmest Regards, Celina Caban-Gandhi, Esq.

It will be hard to write this without getting emotional! As an obese 38 year old woman who has had countless medical complications, “hopeless” was an understatement about how I felt when it came to getting healthy and losing weight. Though no one ever believed me because I never successfully lost any weight – I was ALWAYS trying. It was so defeating to feel like everyone thought I was just lazy.
Rachel has all of the qualities that would attract you to any weight loss “scheme” – she’s energetic, incredibly fit, and shows how she herself has lost her own baby weight… The difference here is that this isn’t a scheme. Having someone who was an ER DOCTOR (!!!) instead of someone who just did a $500 certification program out of high school is the difference!! You can really trust her knowledge and know that she has you HEALTH in mind.
She’s been holding my hand through this entire experience and I already lost 11lbs in a short time. I was diagnosed with binge disorder and instead of making me feel like I was gross and weak, she gave me tools to help myself reframe my mindset around food. She was never judgemental and never berates you to be 100% perfect all the time. She is very realistic about the goals she sets for you and devotes SO MUCH TIME to constantly adjusting your needs based on your personal experience.
I feel like this review doesn’t even do justice for how much she has changed my life not only for me, but for my child who now gets a mom who is happier and has more energy than ever before. I will be a lifelong client in whatever capacity that means!
Thank you, Dr. Felber!!!!

Jaclyn
Rachel is an amazing coach! I had worked with a personal trainer before, as well as a nutritionist, so I was coming in with some baseline knowledge, but her way of explaining, planning, approaching challenges, and keeping me on track was amazing! Her deep level of understanding of the science and medical aspects of the process sets her apart, and her style and personality translate to just the right amount of pushing you to meet your goals but also supporting you so you don’t hate the process or get burnt out. I love working with Rachel and would absolutely recommend her to anyone ready to try something new, interesting, science-based, and sustainable for their health and wellness goals!!!
