Daphne, Ala. (May 7, 2025) – Baldwin Bone & Joint is pleased to welcome Certified Registered Nurse Practitioner Darin Goff to its growing Pain Management Team, working in collaboration with fellowship-trained specialist Dr. Elliott Pennington. Goff’s addition furthers the practice’s mission to provide advanced, individualized pain management solutions for patients across the Gulf Coast.

Goff brings a strong clinical background in critical care, emergency medicine, and post-anesthesia recovery, with a focus on comprehensive pain care, patient advocacy, and evidence-based treatment strategies. He earned both a Master of Science in Nursing (Family Nurse Practitioner) and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of South Alabama.

“I chose pain management because I saw how deeply chronic pain can affect every part of a person’s life—not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and socially,” Goff said. “There’s something incredibly meaningful about walking alongside patients on that journey and helping them return to the things they love.” (photo: Darin Goff, CRNP)
