I’m Dr. Carlos Martinez, and I’ve spent 10 years in Emergency Medicine before moving into Family Medicine and Urgent Care. My focus areas include caring for people of all ages, guiding weight loss, promoting healthy living, and managing occupational health. I hold board certification in Family Medicine. My medical approach is broad yet targeted, aiming for impactful outcomes in every aspect of care.

Background & Experience Military Service: Served six years in the ARMY, building a strong foundation of discipline and resilience before medical school. Medical Degree & Residency: Earned at Central Maine Medical Center, focusing on Family Medicine and Emergency Medicine to develop comprehensive medical skills. Fellowship: Completed a 2-year Emergency Medicine and Critical Care Fellowship at WVU. Associate Professor of Medicine at UVA and VCU.

Awarded teacher of the year by VCU & UVA Patient-Centric Approach. In my approach to patient care, I believe in looking at the big picture while focusing on the details that matter most. It’s easy to get discouraged when we only look at how far we have to go instead of seeing how far we’ve come. That’s why I focus on celebrating every small win with my patients, because those small wins add up to big successes.

Top Health Ti: Echoing Aristotle’s wisdom of “Know thyself,” I believe self-awareness is fundamental to leading a fulfilling life. Truly understanding who you are can shape your dreams, goals, standards, and beliefs, steering you toward a life filled with purpose and meaning. This philosophy doesn’t just apply to personal development; it also informs my approach to patient care.
