About

Charles Kent, DO is a board certified, fellowship-trained physiatrist specializing in the non-operative treatment of musculoskeletal conditions with particular expertise in the spine and peripheral joint conditions.

Dr. Kent treats a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions including neck and back pain, spine-related disorders, and joint conditions of the shoulders, hips, and knees. He emphasizes non-surgical solutions designed to reduce pain, improve function, and help patients return to their daily activities.

Dr. Kent takes a patient-centered approach to care, believing that successful treatment begins with strong communication between physician and patient. He prioritizes education and shared decision-making, ensuring that each patient understands their condition and the full range of available treatment options. His goal is to guide patients toward informed decisions that align with their individual needs and lifestyle.

A native of South Florida, Dr. Kent completed his residency in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, where he served as Chief Resident.
