LegitScript CertifiedMen across Hinsdale and the western suburbs book this visit for the same handful of reasons.
01
Energy that used to last until six now runs out at three. Recovery takes days it never used to take. Focus comes and goes.
Most have been putting it down to the quarter, or the travel, or their age. Usually for a year or two before they do anything about it.
02
Most have mentioned it once, to a doctor or to someone at home.
They were told it is normal for a man their age, so they stopped mentioning it.
If you are reading this at your desk with the tab half-hidden, that is the usual way men arrive here.
Nobody at this practice will make anything of it.
03
That's the sensible next step.
Here is what a testosterone test on its own cannot do: it gives you a value and a reference range. Both of those answers can close the conversation.
A low number tells you what, not why.
A number inside the range may tell you very little at all.
You may be told your labs are normal while nothing about your week has changed.
A low number tells you what, not why.
A number inside the range may tell you very little at all.
One marker has nothing to be read against.
The Full Picture
The Alpha Performance Assessment measures 61 blood biomarkers across hormonal, thyroid, metabolic and cardiovascular panels. Testosterone is one of them. Add body composition and other objective measures, and the assessment brings together 150+ clinical markers in one comprehensive evaluation.
61 blood biomarkers across hormonal, thyroid, metabolic and cardiovascular panels. Your testosterone sits inside that panel instead of standing on its own.
Alongside a full InBody 970 body composition, grip strength in both hands, blood pressure and stadiometer, all taken on site the same morning, 150+ clinical markers in total.
Your blood is drawn here. The comprehensive hormone panel is run in our own CLIA-certified, moderate-complexity laboratory during your visit. It is not outsourced. It is not read next week.
Having our laboratory on-site means key available findings are reviewed with you during your visit; remaining results are reviewed as they become available.
Better information leads to better decisions.

As Seen On
“I'm 56 and I've been to other men's health clinics that either feel way too clinical or lean too heavy into the ‘bro’ vibe. Alpha Refinery is completely different. The team actually wanted to talk with me — not just run me through a checklist. My GP usually just tells me to ‘eat healthy and exercise,’ but here I was given real solutions, clear guidance, and a plan that makes sense for me.”
Individual results vary.
Here is what to expect
Your appointment is private, unhurried and designed around you. Your clinical team has reviewed your intake and goals before you arrive.
Your assessment brings together comprehensive bloodwork, advanced body composition and objective performance measures, all in one visit.
Available findings are reviewed with you in the context of how you feel, how you perform and what you're trying to improve. Remaining results are incorporated as they become available.
90 minutes. One private assessment.
No payment required to book.
It is a 90-minute clinical evaluation, in person, in Hinsdale. It is not a lab draw, and it is not a subscription.
If you are looking only for a testosterone number, a single lab test will give you that. This assessment is built to read that number in context.
We would rather set that expectation now.
It is paid directly and not billed to insurance. Nothing is prescribed without an evaluation, and eligibility for any treatment is determined by the clinical team after that evaluation.
This is built for the man who wants the whole picture measured properly, explained clearly, and put into context.
Private Pay. Not Billed To Insurance.
What Patients Say
Real experiences from men who have been here.
“From the moment you walk into Alpha Refinery, the vibe is totally different — it feels more like a cigar lounge than a doctor's office or clinic. It's welcoming, private, and one-on-one. You don't feel like just another number. They really took the time to break everything down in a way that made sense. I love what Alpha Refinery is doing and highly recommend them.”
“I visited Alpha Refinery today in Hinsdale. I cannot say how pleased I was with the friendly and professional staff, beautiful decor, and modern clinical equipment. I was given results of my blood test within 30 minutes. I did not feel pressured to sign up immediately. I was told prices upfront and given the opportunity to consider my options. I would highly recommend Alpha Refinery.”
“Outstanding knowledge and service compared to two other similar programs I have tried in the past 3 years. Strongly recommended to friends.”

Common Questions
It might be part of it. Age is one input among many, and on its own it does not explain much. What we can tell you is what your numbers are doing across hormonal, thyroid, metabolic and cardiovascular markers, read together, on the same morning. That is a different question from “is this normal for your age,” and it is the one we are set up to answer.
Most of those models lead with testosterone and fit you to a standard plan. We work the other way round. We measure 61 blood biomarkers and 150+ clinical markers in total. Hormones are one part of the picture. The assessment also considers other objective markers that may contribute to how you feel and perform. The hormone panel runs in our own laboratory in this building, and key available findings are reviewed with you during your visit; remaining results are reviewed as they become available. There is no algorithm writing your protocol and no subscription you are locked into.
Not unless your testing points that way. Testosterone is one marker among many, and reading it on its own can hide what is actually driving how you feel. Eligibility for any treatment is determined by the clinical team after evaluation, and that evaluation is the whole point of the visit.
A clean panel is an answer too. Your full results and a written protocol are yours either way. Key available findings are reviewed with you during your visit; remaining results are reviewed as they become available. You also leave with a baseline you can measure the next few years against. Knowing where you actually are is worth the morning, whichever way the numbers fall.
Very. There is no waiting room, appointments are spaced so you do not meet anybody else, and the consultation is one to one. Your appointment, your results and your protocol stay between you and your clinician.
$497 in total. No payment is required to book, nothing is charged to reserve your time, and no card is taken to hold an appointment. Your clinical team goes through payment with you at your visit. We are cash-pay and do not bill insurance, and we provide HSA and FSA receipts.
It is more focused. A traditional executive physical is a broad annual screen that often takes most of a day and may include imaging. The Alpha Performance Assessment is built for the same kind of man, but aimed at performance: energy, recovery, focus and drive. It measures hormonal, thyroid, metabolic and cardiovascular markers, plus body composition and strength, in one private 90-minute visit, for men who do not have a day to give up.
Most men start with their primary care doctor, and that is reasonable. An annual physical is built to screen for disease. It usually is not built to explain why your energy, recovery or drive has changed. That is the question this visit is designed around. Alpha Refinery is an expert-led men’s performance medicine clinic with physician medical oversight. Your assessment is conducted by our clinical team, measures 61 blood biomarkers and 150+ clinical markers in total, and key available findings are reviewed with you during your visit. It does not replace your primary care doctor. It answers a different question.
You get a confirmation by text and email, and a short intake to complete before your visit. Your clinical team reviews it before you arrive. No payment is required to book, and nothing is charged to hold your time.
The hormone panel runs in our own CLIA-certified laboratory in this building during your visit, and key available findings are reviewed with you before you leave. The remaining markers go to a reference laboratory the same morning and are reviewed with you as they become available.
That depends on what your results show and on the clinical evaluation. Nothing is prescribed without an evaluation, and eligibility for any treatment is determined by the clinical team after that evaluation. If treatment is appropriate, your clinical team explains what it involves and what it costs before you decide. Nothing is added without your agreement, and where you are eligible, treatment can begin at the same visit.
Tell us when you book, and again when you arrive. Many men feel the same way. Your blood is drawn by our own laboratory team, seated in a private room, and it is over in a few minutes. If treatment turns out to be appropriate, the clinical team walks you through every option, including how it is given, before anything is decided.
