Adrian Palos, PA-C

Physician Assistant

“I was born and raised in Fort Worth and did my undergraduate work in athletic training and sports medicine at Hardin-Simmons University. It was during my time at HSU that I discovered my passion for patient care and musculoskeletal science. After my time at HSU, I served as the head athletic trainer for Abilene’s independent baseball team during their 2012 season. During that time, I also had the privilege of working at Texas Sport and Spine under the direction of Dr. Dan Munton and his medical team for 3 years. I then left to do my master’s work at Mississippi College, where I was able to help and learn from patients in one of the most medically underserved states in the nation. I look forward to serving and helping patients from all over the Big Country with their various orthopedic needs.”
