Continuously advancing his efforts, he is an active member of the American Medical Society for Sports Medicine, the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, the American Academy of Orthopedics, the Spine Intervention Society, the Interventional Orthopedic Foundation, and the American Osteopathic College of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.

Physiatrists treat a wide variety of medical conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons.

Happily married, Dr. Papas enjoys spending time with his wife and young children, playing soccer, practicing guitar or piano, and listening to historical podcasts.
