Connor Mathis, PA-C
“I became a PA because I wanted to actually change people's lives — not check boxes.”
Connor came to medicine through athletics. A lifelong competitor who played baseball through college, he was drawn to the PA profession for its versatility: deeply collaborative and genuinely autonomous at the same time.
Eight years in emergency medicine sharpened his instincts, his calm under pressure, and his ability to cut through noise and act. But the productivity pressure, the administrative grind, and the system that rewarded speed over relationships eventually led him somewhere different. BodyTime is that somewhere. Half Japanese on his mother's side, Connor grew up between Ohio and Japan and speaks the language fluently, which tends to surprise people. Off the clock he's a garage gym regular, a golfer, a skateboarder, and above all a husband and dad who will tell you his family is the whole reason he's trying to live as well as he possibly can. His clinical style? Positive, relaxed, and completely invested. His patients leave their first session feeling befriended, excited, and ready to go.
