Dr Boyd is so knowledgeable and takes time to listen to his patient!!! His extensive knowledge of wrestling makes explaining injuries to him so easy. He knows exactly what could be wrong based on the moves & is able to examine and pin point the problem because of his knowledge of the sport!! Wilmington and the wrestling community are blessed to have him on our side!!
