His practice primarily focuses on the comprehensive management of acute and chronic medical conditions, along with their associated comorbidities. He also emphasizes the importance of health promotion, wellness, and preventive care.

Furthermore, he strongly believes in fostering collaborative relationships with his patients, engaging them in education, and sharing decision-making processes. He understands that providing the best care requires time and a mutual understanding between the patient and the healthcare provider.

Born and raised in South Knoxville, Dr. Unger's journey into the medical field began during his high school years when he was a competitive soccer player and personal trainer. Through his involvement in sports, he recognized the significance of health, wellness, diet, and lifestyle in achieving optimal performance as a student-athlete.

While pursuing his undergraduate studies in biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, he worked as a research assistant in the Department of Anesthesiology, focusing on platelet research. Simultaneously, he also worked as a Certified Nurse Assistant in trauma and critical care at UT Medical Center, gaining valuable hands-on experience in patient care.

Subsequently, Dr. Unger went on to complete his medical training at the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine and had the opportunity to train at prestigious academic medical centers across the United States as part of his clinical rotations, further enhancing his medical knowledge and skills. Finally, he completed his residency in family medicine at the University of Tennessee Medical Center, where he also became certified as a wound care and hyperbaric oxygen physician.

As a testament to his continued education, the doctor is board-certified in family medicine by the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM). The ABFM is a non-profit, independent medical association of American physicians who practice family medicine and its sub-specialties.

Family medicine is a medical specialty devoted to comprehensive health care for people of all ages. The specialist is called a family physician or family doctor. A family physician is often the first person a patient sees when seeking healthcare services. They examine and treat patients with a wide range of conditions and refer those with serious ailments to a specialist or appropriate facility.

Beyond his professional commitments, Dr. Unger cherishes his roles as a husband and father of four.
