Lawrence H Collins, PA Orthopedic Surgery in Tampa, FL
New patient visits
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.

Dr Collins was very professional and respectful of my time there. We discussed and agreed on an option for treatment and suggestions were given on my at home care. It was good to have a fresh look at a problem that is long term.
