The Club · Named · Accountable

The practitioners.

Not just a gym. A daily retreat.

A wellness center is the people who run it. The cellular health specialist who builds the protocol. The counselor who holds the cognitive layer. The director who scopes the corporate program. The founder on the floor most weekdays. And an independent physician on-site when clinical review is indicated.

The Wellness Elite Fitness practice in Friendswood, TX

A practice is the people who run it.

Why this page exists

You buy the person, not the facility.

Premium wellness compounds when the same hands read your panel, write your block, and adjust your protocol. Below are the named hands — with credentials, accountability, and a dedicated page each.

Dr. Swet Chaudhari, MD - Medical Director of Elite Aesthetic MD
Elite Aesthetic MD

Dr. Swet Chaudhari, MD

Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon · American Board of Plastic Surgery · American Board of Surgery

Dr. Chaudhari is the Medical Director of Elite Aesthetic MD — his own independent licensed medical practice located inside the WEF building. Elite Aesthetic MD is a separate practice; it is not a WEF service or WEF department. Prescription-based clinical services (medical GLP-1 management, hormone optimization, clinical IV protocols) are delivered independently through Elite Aesthetic MD — these are not WEF services.

Clinical services are available through Dr. Chaudhari at Elite Aesthetic MD when clinical review is indicated. Members interested in those services are referred to Elite Aesthetic MD directly.

Dana Kantara - Cellular Health
Cellular Health

Dana Kantara

Former Clinical Prevention Director, Baylor College of Medicine · Former Assistant Professor · Internal Medicine PA, retired from clinical practice

Dana served as Clinical Prevention Director and Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine and as an Internal Medicine Physician Assistant before retiring from clinical practice to focus full-time on prevention and cellular health work. She runs the cellular health arm of Wellness Elite Fitness as her primary practice. Custom test panels (autoimmune, fatigue, inflammation, food sensitivity, heavy metals, ultimate fitness, weight loss), peptide protocols, and the methylation panel come from her chair.

Diamond Plus members see Dana monthly. Diamond members see her quarterly. Other members access her on a paid-consult basis.

Najla Crawford, LPC — Director of Behavioral Wellness at Wellness Elite Fitness
Director of Behavioral Wellness

Najla Crawford, LPC

Active Texas Licensed Professional Counselor · Cognitive, Person-Centered, Trauma-Informed

Najla is a licensed clinical counselor who leads the behavioral wellness arm of WEF. Her practice is secular and modality-agnostic — cognitive, person-centered, and trauma-informed approaches selected against the member's actual presentation rather than a one-size protocol. The behavioral layer is the third leg under the strength + recovery + cellular health stack; for members under cognitive load, performing executives, or anyone navigating a transition, it is often the layer that makes the rest stick.

Behavioral wellness is bundled into the Diamond Plus membership and available by consult to other members.

JU
Director of Corporate Wellness

John Uresti

Director, WEF Corporate Wellness · Houston-South Employer Programs

John owns the WEF corporate pipeline — executive health bundles, group memberships at preferred rates, on-site activations, and cellular health cohorts for Houston-south employers. He scopes the program, drafts the proposal, and remains the named point of contact through the engagement. A corporate program at WEF starts with a conversation with John, not a brochure download.

Inquiries reach him directly. The front desk — (832) 481-2922 — can also route a corporate inquiry.

Camden Balberg - Chief Technologist
Chief Technologist

Camden Balberg

Computer Science · Texas A&M University · Quiet operator of the technology layer

Camden is the named owner of the technology layer beneath the club. A computer scientist by training, his work at Wellness Elite Fitness is the architecture that lets a panel reach the trainer, a protocol reach the member, a recovery note reach the next session — without a member ever needing to think about how it got there.

Members rarely meet Camden. The club nevertheless feels seamless because it is engineered to. That is the deliverable.

Tristan Bartlett

Technologist · Second on the technology bench · Reports to the Chief Technologist

Tristan works alongside Camden on the technology layer that runs beneath the club. The integrations, the data pipes, the small invisible mechanics that turn a member panel into a programmed week and a recovery note into the next session’s plan — that is his half of the work.

Like Camden, Tristan is built into the club to disappear into it. The deliverable is a member experience that feels seamless without ever needing to know who engineered it.

Imani Lowery - Founder and Head Trainer
Founder · Owner · Head Trainer

Imani Lowery

Founder, Wellness Elite Fitness · Two decades of training · Voice of the club

Imani founded Wellness Elite Fitness in 2019 to build a wellness facility that programmed strength, recovery, longevity, and nutrition as one club — not as separate hobbies sold by separate vendors. Two decades of training experience. On the floor most weekdays, writing the protocols, and meeting every new member at their first consult.

Imani also runs the WEF coaching bench — Amber Anderson, Cris Castellanos, and the rotating massage and modality staff — and is the operational owner of the entire facility.
