Myself and both sons (Scott & Matt) have been with Dr. Phillips 30+ years. Excellent knowledge of sports injuries and with the 3 of us he had ample opportunities to get us on track quickly! We wish the very best for “Doc” and his wife during his retirement/ job well done! Vaya con Dios - - Tres Leches
