Dr. Garcia specializes in nonoperative orthopedic care. He treats knees, shoulders, elbows, and hips. He has worked with various athletes, including weekend warriors, Olympic athletes, seniors, and professional athletes.

As he witnessed the aging of his athletic patients, he realized the need to support their continued activity and sports participation. With regenerative medicine, many of his patients continue to enjoy their sports well into their 80s, even after experiencing injuries or arthritic conditions.

Dr. Garcia has been practicing regenerative medicine for more than 10 years, while giving his patients an alternative to corticosteroids and surgery. He started with prolotherapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Over the past 5 years, he has been adding bone marrow concentrate (BMC) when necessary. Bone marrow concentrate is known to contain mesenchymal signaling cells (MSC’s), which are commonly referred to as stem cells.

He is the Medical Director of the Indian River County Sheriff’s Office SWAT Team. He also lectures throughout the country on military/police medicine, shoulder rehabilitation, and various treatment options for knee arthritis.

Areas treated: Knee, Shoulder, Hip, Elbow, Hand & Wrist, Foot & Ankle
