MEET DR GEORGE PETRYK OF ADIO WELLNESS CENTER
 


Dr George Petryk of ADIO Wellness Center

 

George started life as an adrenalin junkie. At 15, he went to work on ambulances as an attendant. He turned that experience into becoming an EMT and Paramedic. He loved the rush getting there and making a difference.

At 18, he went into the Army. With his previous experience, they put him in the Academy of Health Sciences at Brooke Army Hospital where he became a Physician's Assistant.

Then, because of his being able to speak Ukrainian, Polish, Russian & German, the Army sent him off to Germany to work in the Army Hospital.


Out of the service in 1988, George went to work for an eye surgeon and at a hospital in Sarasota/Bradenton. He also went to Venice for the Fire Academy. He actually likes the idea of rushing into a burning building when everyone else is rushing to get out!

He was able to consolidate 2 jobs into one when he took a position at Metpath Laboratories. When he finally decided he wanted to be a Chiropractor and was accepted at Life University School of Chiropractic in Georgia, Metpath Laboratories transferred him to their facility near the school. That was how he paid for school until, as a student, he was offered a faculty position teaching laboratory diagnosis.

Upon his graduation, he opened a private practice in Cumming, Georgia and at the same time became a Code Enforcement Officer for Fulton County so he wouldn't have to take out any more loans for the money to run the practice. He worked both at the same time and just scheduled one around the other. Are you noticing a pattern of someone not being afraid to do the work to reach the goals?

George married the love of his life in 2000. Soon after they moved to Ft Myers to take over an existing practice from a retiring Chiropractor, which is now the ADIO Wellness Center. During the last 4 years, Dr Petryk has been taking his post graduate at Carrick Institute in functional neurology. He is now a Board Eligible Chiropractic Neurologist and will be taking his test to become Board Certified in 2009.

Dr Petryk is certified in Chiropractic Sport Management and Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA). He currently holds a Post Graduate Faculty Appointment at the American Academy of Manual and Physical Medicine and is an Adjunct Professor at the University of Bridgeport teaching Manipulation Under Anesthesia to physicians from throughout the country. He is a member of the Florida Chiropractic Association (FCA), Florida Chiropractic Association Sports Injury Council, has been a contributing editor the Florida Health Care News, is a U.S. Army Veteran, a member of the Ukrainian American Veterans, and was chosen to be a liaison to the Ukrainian Para-Olympic Team in the Atlanta Olympics.

ADIO Wellness Center offers a diversity of treatments from Chiropractic, Neurology, Non-Surgical Disc Decompression, Manipulation Under Anesthesia, Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation, Homeopathy, Weight Loss and Kinesiology. His practice blends an extremely diverse medical background and knowledge of Western and Eastern Medicines.

When Dr Petryk is not working or in school either learning or teaching, he spends his time with his wife and 4 children at their home in Ft Myers.
