Biography

Dr. Zayas grew up in Puerto Rico. After completing his bachelor's degree in physical therapy, Dr. Zayas got his medical degree so he could have even more mental tools to positively impact people's quality of life. Dr. Zayas pursued movement disorders as a subspecialty because he was drawn to a type of medicine that relied so heavily on visual observation to reach potential diagnoses. Dealing with Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders allows him to combine his medical training with his physical therapy background to provide holistic care. Dr. Zayas completed two residences (internal medicine and neurology). He also completed a one-year fellowship in Neuro-Critical Care and a one-year fellowship in Movement Disorders.
