About
At Finish Performance Health in Athens, Georgia, three physicians combine diagnostic precision with proactive health planning. Dr. Matthew Farmer, Dr. Christopher Gaunder, and Dr. Cynthia Mercer each bring deep clinical expertise to a practice built around one principle: start with data, finish with results. The practice organizes its work around four core pillars: Exercise, Nutrition, Sleep and Recovery, and Emotional Well-Being. Gold-standard diagnostics drive every plan, including DEXA scans, VO2 max testing, lactate threshold testing, resting metabolic rate testing, and advanced biomarkers. Membership tiers range from Bronze to Silver to Gold, each offering increasing frequency of assessments, remote monitoring, and functional movement sessions. A dedicated Women's Healthspan program addresses perimenopausal health, bone density, and hormonal change. The FINISH Referral Network connects members with vetted specialists for complex metabolic, cardiac, and women's health concerns. Finish Performance Health does not replace a primary care physician but works alongside one.
