About Matthew Remz

I received my bachelor’s degree in food science and human nutrition from the University of Florida in 2014. I then attended the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, where I earned my medical doctorate in 2018, followed by a four-year residency in neurology. I returned to UF in 2022 to begin a fellowship in movement disorders and gain additional expertise in the advanced treatment of these conditions.

I was driven to practice medicine by a desire to help others. Physicians have the unique privilege of comforting and counseling people at their most vulnerable moments. I chose neurology because the human mind is one of the last great frontiers, shaping who we are.

My primary goal is to have a positive, personal impact on the lives of patients facing neurologic diseases, with a specific interest in dystonia, tremors, and Parkinson’s disease. I also aim to join my colleagues at UF in advancing the field of neurology. Patients who meet me in the clinic should expect me to approach their care with curiosity and a commitment to understanding their needs.

When I’m not working, I spend as much time as possible with my wife and two young children. I also enjoy playing guitar, spending time outdoors with my family, exercising, and reading.
