MS Sports Medicine is happy to see Rayf Vinson having a great senior season. Last year, Rayf suffered a knee injury and set back on his football journey. With the care and encouragement of Dr. Jason Craft, who repaired his ACL, and RJ Barrett, who runs our Return to Sports Program at the Madison Healthplex, he is back to doing what he loves. Rayf is a senior at Madison Ridgeland Academy.

"Dr. Woodall and his staff took great care of me. He had a great bedside manner and takes the time to listen to you. I felt safe in his care. I was in bad shape and now I feel great. It was a long road to recovery. But it was worth the struggle. If you want any spine surgery to work you have to put in the time and effort to make sure your recovery is successful, which means doing physical therapy and do what they tell you to do." - Rainey Latham
