Alex Camacho
What drives my work at the clinic is being able to make other peoples’ day lighter, brighter and more vibrant! Providing attentive, solution-based care has been at the heart of learning how to be a better resource to my patients. I like to employ a down-to-earth, strengths-focused approach in helping all patients upfront, and handling all aspects of clinic maintenance behind-the-scenes so they can focus on their healing and potential! In my downtime, I enjoy reading, practicing piano, seeing friends and cuddling my black cat Sunday.

Spencer was born and raised in the small town of Sonoma, CA about 45 minutes north of San Francisco. He attended Oregon State University graduating in 2020 with a bachelors of science in kinesiology before attending the University of the Pacific where he earned his doctorate degree in physical therapy. Spencer believes that physical therapy care should revolve around a patient centered approach with an emphasis on long term improvement in general quality of life through empowering individuals to further their health and well being. A foundation that lies in providing individualized care specific to each patient’s needs with empathy, respect, and kindness. Spencer believes in providing treatment through emphasizing therapeutic exercise and manual therapy with a combination of functional movements and various modalities to target each patient’s specific needs and create a high quality individualized plan. Spencer also appreciates how patient centered therapydia is while also prioritizing the health and well being of their employees. When not in the clinic he enjoys being outdoors hiking, playing basketball or golf, as well as hunting for waterfowl and fishing for trout or bass. Spencer is also a huge fan of baseball and enjoys going to games with friends and family throughout the summer and spending time at the beach.

Tony Torrez, PT, DPT
