About Daniel K Benson, II

About the Provider

I got into medicine because I wanted to be able to make a difference for people—not just my own patients, but also the communities where they live and work. Putting their best interests first is always my top priority.

I am passionate about preventive medicine. So many health problems and complications can be stopped before they even start, just by making simple lifestyle choices like eating nutritious food, exercising regularly, and getting good sleep. I love seeing my patients take charge of their health and improve their lives, and knowing that I played a part in making it happen.

    Based on the information I gave to Dr. Benson, he did what I expected: he ordered X-rays as well as physical therapy. He also prescribed a muscle relaxer to use if I needed it. I expect he will have further thoughts following the therapy.
