This prestigious award is presented to a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) who has made significant contributions to both the osteopathic profession and the local community. Dr. Boland is one of only a handful of Movement Disorder specialists in the Tampa Bay area and is a pioneer in the mobile delivery of neurological services.

Dr. Boland said, "I am so honored and humbled to be recognized by my colleagues and friends with this award.

Through my practice, Be Mobile Neurology, I am working to offer a more personalized and affordable approach to healthcare, improving outcomes for my patients."

Be Mobile Neurology is the only mobile neurology practice in Tampa Bay and is leading trends nationally.
