Biography

Prior to becoming a Physical Therapist, Dr. Goris became a certified personal trainer through the American Aerobic Association International and International Sports Medicine Association. Having experienced injuries that required surgeries, he was able to work closely with physical therapists to rehabilitate back to performing high-level activities such as aerobic exercise and recreational sports. During this time, Dr. Goris realized the value of the physical therapy field and developed a passion for helping others rehabilitate through injuries of their own. He was determined to pursue the educational degrees and clinical experiences that qualify him to help patients return to the activities they enjoy and reach their personal goals in a timely manner.

During his Doctoral studies, Dr. Goris accumulated hours treating patients in various settings such as inpatient hospital acute rehabilitation, outpatient orthopedic settings, and an outpatient cancer specialty setting. His primary physical therapy and rehabilitation interests include sports injuries, orthopedics, and post-operative programs as well as geriatric rehabilitation.
