Dr. DeGorter's Background
Dr. DeGorter has treated many professional and amateur athletes of almost every sport.

A Long Island native, Dr. DeGorter graduated from Life University with honors in 2012. He grew up playing almost every sport.
And, he knows many of the mechanics that go into each sport which gives him the knowledge to treat a wide range of injuries.
