What Dr. Konzer’s Patients are Saying

Working with Dr. Konzer has allowed me to approach racing with the clear mindset and focus that it requires. I would find myself entering a race weekend carrying a lot of baggage with me that could easily stray my focus from the job at hand. It’s not always easy to talk and share what is on my plate, week in and week out, but having the comfortability to share those things with her even when it is tough to share with others, allows me to breathe easier almost. I’m not carrying any extra weight on my shoulders. – NASCAR Driver
