About Us
Doctor Matthew Page DPT
I am from Concord, NC where I grew up playing soccer on traveling club teams and for my local highschool at JM Robinson. My interest in physical therapy began after I suffered serious knee injury that put me on the patient side of the profession where I saw professionals making an impact on my recovery process. I have a passion for personalizing the therapy experience and listening to each patient's individual needs.
I received my undergraduate degree in Exercise Science at Brigham Young University in Provo, UT in 2015. I then completed my Physical Therapy Doctoral Degree at Wingate University, graduating in 2019.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Kimber, and our 5 kids, Jack, Logan, Packer, and twins Reese and Ivy.

Doctor Jaime Elwell PT, DPT
I was born in Meadville, PA and grew up as a Pittsburgh Steeler fan. My family moved often and I’ve lived in PA, CA, GA, and ultimately landed in NC. I completed my undergraduate degree at UNCC with a major in Exercise Science in 2017 and graduated from Wingate University with my Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2020. Sports have always been a passion of mine and I played basketball competitively for 14 years. My interest in PT began with my own experience and blossomed into a love of the field when my uncle was in a terrible accident and fought for his life. Witnessing his success and his physical therapy team aide his recovery was nothing short of spectacular. I want to know my patients and their families all while being a part of their journey to a happy and healthy life.
