Dr. Garrick is also a doctor for Amazon Prime and HBO productions that are filmed in Austin, TX and surrounding areas where he cares for celebrities.

 

In 2018, after being frustrated by the broken insurance-based healthcare system where he wasn’t given enough time by his employers to give the level of care he wanted to give, he quit his job and started METSI Care.  

 

At METSI Care, Dr. Garrick is able to sit down and listen to his patient’s concerns where they are not rushed as the visits are 30 - 60 minutes. When he practiced in traditional, insurance-based models of care, he was scolded by administrators when he wanted to spend more than 15 minutes with his patients. 

 

Dr. Garrick is passionate about providing high quality care with a focus on prevention and wellness. Dr. Garrick provides holistic, integrative care and lifestyle medicine. 

 

In his freetime, Dr. Garrick enjoys creating and cooking healthy meals as a freestyle cook, exploring new restaurants, attending live music events, running, biking, hiking, photography, weight lifting, and yoga.  

 

Dr. Garrick started photography using his dad's professional Minolta camera after losing his father to Multiple Myeloma in 1997. He used the camera as a way of healing and connecting with his father. Dr. Garrick decided to attend medical school because he wanted to be the doctor for other people the way he couldn’t be for his father.

 

Dr. Garrick opened METSI Care in November of 2019.
