Dr. Elier Rodriguez earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology from Florida International University and completed his medical degree at Florida State University. He pursued his residency in Internal Medicine at FSU and Sarasota Memorial Hospital.
Driven by a deep interest in science and a desire to give back to the underserved community he grew up in, Dr. Rodriguez has dedicated his career to healthcare. “I made it my mission to study medicine and give back by serving the same underserved community I grew up in,” he says.
As an advocate for preventive care, Dr. Rodriguez focuses on educating patients about healthy lifestyle choices and addressing the root causes of health issues rather than merely treating symptoms. He finds great fulfillment in building relationships with his patients and their families. “We are partnering to tackle the difficulties of disease and work together to improve their quality of life, so they can spend more quality time with their loved ones,” he explains.
In his free time, Dr. Rodriguez enjoys staying active, spending time with family and friends, and connecting with nature.
