Eric Winder DC

Dr. Winder finds himself today in his dream job – helping people, working with his hands, and solving challenging problems. He also teaches and performs research as a natural outgrowth of his clinical work. He began his career path in biological research, but he developed debilitating headaches in his early twenties that derailed his career direction. Many expert health practitioners tried to help relieve the headaches, to no avail.

Dr. Winder finally found help in the form of more progressive manual therapies that restored his health. Inspired to start a new career, he now applies his scientifically inquisitive nature to understanding and helping solve a wide range of health problems for thousands of patients. Dr. Winder and his wife Mira have five children, 3 girls and 2 boys. They moved to Sarasota from western Pennsylvania in 2013.
