Michael Garcia , MD
"I was born in Cuba, one of nine children, and grew up in Montgomery, Alabama. I moved to Birmingham and attended college, became an avid basketball fan during the early years of Gene Bartow's tenure in Birmingham. I married and started my practice originally with Seale Harris Clinic at Baptist Montclair Hospital (later Trinity Hospital).
Fast-forward 20 years and I now have a wonderful practice at SWC, as well as a thriving practice in Jasper, Al.
I am the proud father of 6 children, ages 17-29. Two of my daughters have chosen to pursue careers in nursing and health care. I feel blessed to provide treatment to cancer patients, as well as spiritual and emotional support to their families."
