The Mat Doc is a seasoned and licensed M.D. who spent many years competing in wrestling at the High School and College levels. Because of his unwavering love of the sport, he has devoted much of his practice to dealing with and addressing various health related issues that affect wrestlers and other athletes who have specific medical ailments not fully addressed by the main-stream medical community.

As a high school wrestler, he suffered many of these maladies himself, and becoming frustrated by his physicians inability to help, prompted him to pursue his medical degree and focus primarily on clinical research in regard to skin infections and other health issues in this sport.
