Greeting
Hello all! My name is Will Greenman and I am the founder and chief orthopedic surgeon at Mindful Motion. Opening this practice has always been a dream of mine, and I cannot wait to be able to meet, great, and help you to heal. As this is the first blog post, I wanted to begin with my (and Mindful Motion’s) journey. In many ways, this is our story.
Founder Story
While I have lived in many areas of the country, in reality I am a Texan through and through. I grew up just south of here in Austin, but I spent many holidays visiting my grandmother in the University Park area. I love this area and the people in it, and I have always wanted to improve the health of my fellow Texans.
In terms of education, I attended the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, where I received a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. It was here at the University of Tennessee that I found my love for entrepreneurship and realized that my medical career would also require business knowledge. In fact, at Tennessee I was able to develop preliminary business plans for this very practice. Our story began here.
At this same time, I was spending a lot of time focusing on my medical training. I received my MD from the Long School of Medicine in San Antonio, returning to Texas to serve Texans. I developed my foundations in medical care here before I went on to California to receive five years of training.
Mindful Motion
During these experiences in diverse, unique towns, I quickly learned the importance of holistic care that was personalized to each patient. I have always been an incredibly outgoing, happy person, and I wanted to provide care that mirrored my disposition. However, many public and private hospitals are cold and unfriendly places. I often saw the patients under my care only once or twice because hospital admins wanted to keep the gears turning and earn more revenue. In addition, I saw non-ambulatory patients being directed across town and I saw the worry on their faces. I saw immigrant patients and their doctors unable to communicate.

Holistic assessment and care: presence in the process
The pain and depression in the hospitals I worked at were enough for me to decide that the practice I developed in my undergraduate days was needed now more than ever. I looked back at my work, tinkering on it and bringing in new minds to optimize the patient experience, and finally Mindful Motion was born.
New Beginnings
Now that we are only a few months out from opening, we are so excited to share with you just how much we have available in our practice. We looked at the best science and the most eye-opening holistic care and combined these experiences into one place, integrating all of the needs of our patients. Now, you will experience care that actually brings you joy. You will actually know your doctors and know them well. Your care will be seamless and all at one location. You will be provided with multilingual care if needed. You will have everything you need at one location that doesn’t feel cold, expensive and overwhelming.
We at Mindful Motion are here to change the landscape of healthcare. More importantly though, we exist to give our patients the best and most satisfying healthcare outcomes available in medicine today. Thank you for your curiosity about our story.
Welcome to Mindful Motion! We cannot wait to meet Y’ALL!
