Stephane
Lavoie was born in one of North America's oldest cities, Quebec. He was raised in
French Canada with his sister and three brothers. Dr. Lavoie completed
undergraduate studies in pre-medicine while balancing the rigors of
competing on a National Championship intercollegiate volleyball team.
Dr. Lavoie attended medical school at Laval University in Quebec and soon realized he wanted to be a
surgeon of the musculoskeletal system. During his residency, Dr. Lavoie
developed a love for Orthopaedic surgery because of the practical
aspects it held. It was also during his residency that Dr. Lavoie met
his wife Josee. They currently have one child. After completing his
residency Dr. Lavoie was selected to complete a fellowship specializing
in spine surgery at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas.
After being heavily recruited the Lavoie family accepted the offer to
relocate to the DeLand area and join the practice of Florida Orthopaedic
Associates, P.A. The Sunshine State was a logical choice to the Lavoie family since
many Quebekers think of Florida as a second home. The Lavoie's were
also drawn to the quality of life of a smaller town and the close
relationships that are so typical of our community.
Dr. Lavoie brings a new level of medical service to our patients, being
the first fellowship trained spine surgeon in the Sanford and
West Volusia area. Dr. Lavoie is proud to be the newest
member of Florida Orthopaedic Associates and looks forward to providing
health care to the residents of Volusia County.
