I have been a PA practicing in Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine in Tampa since 1990. I take great joy in working with patients to get them back to the level of activity they desire. I have worked with patients who are non-athletes, weekend warriors and professional athletes. All patients with injuries or musculoskeletal problems deserve the same care and treatment. My years spent working with student-athletes at USF as well as athletes within the United States Olympic Training Program, the National Football League and Tampa Bay Lightning have given me experience to help care for all types of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions.

Larry Collins was excellent
5/10/2025
The experience with the doctor was also very rewarding, he listened to me, he was compassionate, at no time did I feel that I was rushing in my explanation, he was also empathetic, you could tell that he cared and that he understood how this problem affects my life, in addition to that he explained in detail what his opinion was and why another specialist should see me for the final decision also making me feel that he was leaving me in good hands, He explained to me step by step how we were going to proceed and what my possibilities were and most important of all we were not finished until he made sure that I had fully understood what he was telling me. What a great experience! A doctor who transmits love for his profession! :)
