About us

Dr. Matey is a graduate of Youngstown State University in Youngstown, Ohio, and earned his medical degree from the Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine in Cleveland. After leaving school, Dr. Matey spent the next three years training at a nationally respected surgical residency, Miami Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Miami.

During his time serving veterans, Dr. Matey underwent considerable training in wound care, which he put to good use when he was approached by Baptist Medical Center in Jacksonville to help open its new Wound Institute, the first to offer hyperbaric treatment in Northeast Florida. Dr. Matey was also one of the first physicians to perform endovenous radiofrequency ablations in the office setting for treating venous and lymphatic disease. This procedure has helped patient throughout the southeastern states resume a normal healthy lifestyle without fear of developing wounds, worsening swelling…even without the need for compression hose for many patients.
