About
Travis

Travis Williams, PA-C, is a physician assistant specializing in orthopedic spine care. Originally from Sioux City, Iowa, Travis’s passion for medicine was sparked by his love of sports and the firsthand experiences he had with athletic injuries growing up. Inspired by the care and expertise of his own athletic trainer, he set out on a path to help others recover from injury and regain their quality of life.

Travis began his academic journey at the University of Iowa, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree. He went on to complete a Master’s in Athletic Training at A.T. Still University and later earned his Physician Assistant degree from Bethel University. Before becoming a PA, Travis spent eight years working as an athletic trainer across a variety of settings, including high schools, junior colleges, and Division I athletics.

In his current role, Travis focuses on treating orthopedic spine conditions such as radiculopathy, spinal stenosis, myelopathy, and chronic neck and lower back pain. He values a conservative approach when possible, offering patients a variety of treatment options including physical therapy, injections, and surgical consultation when needed.

Outside of medicine, Travis is an avid golfer, enjoys playing pickup basketball, watching movies and TV shows, and cheering on his favorite sports teams.
