 Dr. David Scott specializes in the non-operative care of bone, joint and spine conditions, with special interest in golf and running medicine. As a lifelong athlete, Dr. Scott has always found it rewarding to help his patients regain physical function.

He completed his residency in physical medicine and rehabilitation at Carolinas Rehabilitation Hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina, followed by a sports medicine fellowship at Steadman Hawkins Orthopedic Clinic of the Carolinas in Greenville, South Carolina.

Dr. Scott explained things so I understood what was going on. Even though he recommended surgery, I told him I'd like to take another route if one was available. He understood and explained thoroughly what the other route entailed.

Dr Scott really listened to how I thought my problem started - his exam was through and his thought and recommendations were explained to me in a manner that was not condescending but more of educating me on possible issues

My sense was that the dr. Was over-booked. Very cursory exam, brief explanation of condition, wrote prescription for back pain...."moving right along...."

He was very upfront with me about my condition. He provided relief for my pain, but warned me I might need further intervention down the line. A great experience. He also, studied my MRI and XRAYs very thoroughly and answered my questions.

Dr. David Scott asked me questions about the problem I was having, and did a thorough exam and discussed possible solutions. He ended up giving me a trigger shot and administered it with little to know discomfort. I was sore that night, but by morning feeling so much better. I had been in pain for almost five weeks. Today has been the best day I have had since my injury. Thank you Dr. Scott!

Dr. Scott listened and was very good about explaining what my options are. He even brought to my attention about something that I was not aware of on my X-ray. He showed me my X-ray showing a calcified tumor. He appeared to be concerned about my well-being.
