Reflecting on his own journey as a former student-athlete, Dr. Meis attributes much of his success to the discipline and relationships built at Morningside.
“I cannot even begin to say enough good things about my experience."
Burford, who joined Morningside as head Athletic Trainer in 2015, has been instrumental in growing the department and ensuring athletes receive top-notch care.
“I am more involved in decision-making and healthcare for our athletes as a whole."
Burford also emphasizes the importance of personal connections, considering the athletes and coaches like family.
Both Dr. Meis and Burford highlight the holistic approach to athlete care at Morningside, supporting student-athletes both on and off the field.
