From the Doctor:

Since our move to Jacksonville in 2009 from Tampa, my wife, son and I have fallen in love with the city. We are committed to the area and making Jacksonville our lifelong home.

I enjoy taking care of patients of all ages. As a former professional and collegiate athlete, my goal is to treat “the athlete” in all of us. My goal is to allow my patients to maintain or exceed their current level of function and fitness. I believe in educating my patients about their injuries so that they have the ability to make good, strong choices about their care.
