The athletes and active people I work with.
On the sideline, in the training room, and in clinic. The goal that matters is getting you back to what you love.
Recreational & masters athletes
Runners, cyclists, lifters, golfers, tennis players: staying strong in your sport, and keeping at it as the years add up.
Combat & strength athletes
BJJ, boxing, MMA, Muay Thai, and the barbell crowd. Care from a physician who trains, and a member of USA Boxing and the Association of Ringside Physicians.
High school & collegiate
From varsity to Division I. Precise diagnosis, return-to-play, and prevention that protects performance and eligibility.
Professional & elite athletes
Careers measured in availability. Evidence-based management focused on getting and keeping you competition-ready.
Active adults & working people
Parents, laborers, and anyone who moves for a living: function-first care so daily life and work stay strong.
Non-operative sports medicine, from diagnosis to procedure.
Diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound
Real-time, dynamic evaluation of tendons, muscles, ligaments, and nerves in the room, with X-ray or MRI added when deeper structures, joints, or bone need a closer look.
Ultrasound-guided injections
Image-guided injections and aspirations for joints, tendons, and bursae, placed precisely under direct visualization.
Orthobiologics & PRP
A growing interest area, approached honestly through the evidence: what it supports, for whom, and what it doesn't.
Sports & MSK injury care
Non-operative diagnosis and management across every joint: sprains, strains, tendon and overuse injuries.
Concussion & sideline care
Assessment and return-to-play, informed by marathon, collegiate, and high-school event coverage.
Prevention & performance
Load management and movement strategy for durable results, so you keep doing what you love for longer.
Home teams.
Two schools shaped this path. Today, as a fellow, Dr. Gonzalez is back on their sidelines as a team physician. Care with roots in the same hallways.
J. Sterling Morton
The two-campus district where it started, now on its sidelines, keeping its athletes in the game.
Loyola University Chicago
From chemistry undergrad to the sideline of the university that set the course.
Beyond the exam room.
Open to speaking, consulting, academic collaboration, and event coverage, work that connects clinical care, teaching, and research.
Speaking & media
MSK medicine, POCUS, and technology in care: from national workshops to Univision segments.

Ultrasound education, sports medicine pathways, and thoughtful integration of new technology.

Clinically translational research in MSK, screening, and primary care.
