OUr Mission

Prevention over quick fixes

Sporty Doctor’s mission is simple: help people stay strong, mobile, and injury-free. Through a physician-designed app, trusted product recommendations, and evidence-based routines, it focuses on prevention, natural healing, and performance. The goal is to treat the root cause instead of masking it, so you can keep moving and feel your best, with purpose and care. Because we believe five minutes of mobility is infinitely better than nothing.

Treat the root cause

Address the underlying mobility, strength, and stability issues instead of masking the symptoms.

Natural healing

Work with the body’s own ability to heal, without surgery, painkillers, or gimmicks.

Evidence-based movement

Physician-designed routines, grounded in real sports medicine, to keep you moving for life.

Our Story

From one doctor’s advice to an app

Sporty Doctor started as a way for Dr. Kristina DeMatas to give her patients easy, at-home access to the tips and tools she shares every day. Her husband, Darren, built the first website, and it quickly outgrew the clinic, reaching weekend warriors, people healing from injuries, and anyone wanting to move without stiffness. To turn that guidance into something anyone could follow anywhere, Kristina and Darren partnered with coach Shannon “Dallas” Girolamo and built the app. Same mission as day one, now in your pocket.

The People Behind Sporty Doctor

Kristina Headshot

Dr. Kristina DeMatas

Founder · Board-certified Sports Medicine DO

A board-certified family physician with an added qualification in sports medicine, she practices sports and family medicine in Jacksonville, Florida, and trained in osteopathic medicine. Her approach is non-surgical and preventive: treat the root cause, work with the body’s own ability to heal, and keep people doing what they love.

Darren DeMatas

Marketing

Darren is Kristina’s husband and the reason her advice ever left the exam room. A digital marketer with an MBA and 15+ years growing brands online, he runs the agency Inbound Genie, built the first Sporty Doctor website, and leads the business and tech side so Kristina can focus on the medicine. He’s the app’s most honest test subject.
