About Austin

Austin graduated from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine with his Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2021. He is certified in dry needling and enjoys working in the outpatient setting and treating orthopedic injuries as well as treating chronic pain.


He got into physical therapy because of a past shoulder surgery which he had to rehabilitate in physical therapy in order to return to playing basketball. He also enjoys anatomy and physiology, which makes orthopedics even more interesting to him. Austin is from Clarkesville, Georgia, but has spent most of his life in Gainesville. He enjoys spending time with his family and his wife McKenna, as well as playing basketball and watching Georgia football games.


Austin spends most of his free time doing projects around his and McKenna’s house, watching football/basketball games, and hanging out with friends and family.
