Justin Porter was raised in Norman, OK. His achievements in the classroom and on the soccer field earned him a full scholarship to Davidson College in North Carolina. He continued to excel in both arenas: graduating with honors and leading the soccer team as a captain, four-year starter, All-Conference selection, and winning a conference championship his senior season. He was awarded a graduate scholarship through the NCAA’s Southern Conference to attend medical school back home at the University of Oklahoma.
He served various roles in student leadership all 4 years of medical school and graduated near the top of his class. He then completed his medical training in residency and fellowship at the renowned Wake Forest University and Carolinas Pain Institute.

He is passionate in caring for his patients and continuing to build OPM into the best version of itself. He is, however, quick to highlight that the strength of this practice comes from the hard work, dedication, and compassion from its incredible staff members. He enjoys life to the fullest, working hard and playing hard at every opportunity. He is most proud of his home team: his lovely wife Peyton and children Brooks and Caroline.

Throughout his training Dr. Wright consistently scored in the top 10% on his board exams as well as receiving multiple awards and accolades allowing him to achieve a very coveted position at the highly rated fellowship program, Baylor Scott & White.

He completed his training in 2016 and joined Oklahoma Pain Management and shortly thereafter became the youngest physician in the country to be trained and certified to offer DRG stimulation; an advanced method of delivering electrical stimulation to nerve roots to alleviate pain.
In addition to treating patients in OKC, Norman and Shawnee, Dr. Wright spends his extra time traveling the country speaking at conferences and hosting other physicians who travel to visit OPM.
