About
Dr. Gerson Rodriguez grew up in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, where he knew early on that medicine was his path. His commitment deepened when his mother was placed on a liver transplant list. That personal experience with serious illness shaped how he thinks about the doctor-patient relationship.
Dr. Rodriguez completed his internal medicine residency at St. Vincent's in New York before relocating to Florida to be near family. He has practiced internal medicine for over thirteen years. He chose the direct primary care model to focus on medicine at a personal level, the way he believes the physician-patient relationship should work. He treats both acute and chronic conditions, including hypertension, diabetes, asthma, and depression. Beyond primary care, he performs laceration repairs, joint injections, and IV therapies, and he offers aesthetic services including Botox and dermal fillers. He is passionate about preventive health and speaks Spanish fluently, serving Spanish-speaking patients with full-language care.
