About
Christian Turner
Ever since I was young, I've been interested in helping people. My mother was an early elementary school teacher for 40 years, and I share her joy in taking care of children. I played a number of sports growing up and played Division III basketball in college. In medical school, I realized that pediatric sports medicine was the perfect combination of things I'm passionate about.
My approach to healthcare recognizes the difficulties posed by injury and pain, and the impact both can have on kids' lives. I work to help kids and their parents understand their diagnosis and help them be active participants in recovery. I'm a firm believer in exercise as medicine and hope to help kids stay physically active. That helps lay the foundation for a physically healthy life.
After pediatric residency, I completed a fellowship in primary care sports medicine and remain an active member of the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Medical Society for Sports Medicine.
In service to my local community, I volunteer as a board member of Pineville Neighbors Place, a local nonprofit that helps support our community with food, furniture and financial assistance for those in need.
I'm proud to be the father of three amazing children, and I'm lucky to be married to my best friend. My wife trained as a mental health counselor and now works as a certified personal trainer and running coach. We love spending time together, and that includes playing games as a family, exercising and watching sports.
