As a former collegiate athlete, Adam truly understands both sides of an injury. He thoroughly enjoys working with an active population! Relocating from Ohio to Southwest Florida has not only allowed him the great opportunity to enjoy the outdoor Florida lifestyle but to also share his knowledge and great personality with all who come into his care. Adam brings an incredible critical thinking style to the clinic and a wonderful warmth and compassion.
