His dedication to his patients and his field has been recognized by his inclusion in the Top Doctors List by both U.S. News and Atlanta Magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Witnessing the resilience and strength of his patients continually inspires Dr. Bowman. Their ability to overcome catastrophic injuries and achieve significant milestones reaffirms his dedication to his profession. He believes in the power of hope, divine intervention, and the potential for future advancements in medical research to improve patient outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>Originally from Los Gatos, California, Dr. Bowman is a member of the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and the American Spinal Injury Association. His contributions to the field have been recognized with the Robert L. Bennett, M.D., Award for Teaching Excellence in Physiatry from Emory University, which he has received twice.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <div class=\"paragraph-widget paragraph-widget--video-embed\">\n          <figure class=\"video-embed aligncenter idf-block\">\n              <div class=\"video-embed__media-wrap\">\n                                    <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Video Poster\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/3kaWhFmpnq0\/maxresdefault.jpg\">\n                        <div class=\"video-embed__video\" title=\"YouTube Video: \" data-vid=\"3kaWhFmpnq0\"><\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n                  <figcaption class=\"full-media__caption wp-caption-text\">\n            <div>Dr. Bowman shares what inspired him to get involved in physical medicine and rehabilitation, his role at Shepherd Center, and the care team&#8217;s collaborative approach to treating and managing complex injuries and illnesses.<\/div>\n          <\/figcaption>\n                        <\/figure>\n      <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Brock Bowman is the Associate Medical Director at Shepherd Center.
