Jason Nealon graduated Magna Cum Laude with a major in Biology and a minor in Chemistry and was a member of the prestigious Phi Beta Kappa National Honor Society at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, SC. While there, he was also selected as a special research fellow for work on the Human Genome Project in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health, South Carolina Cancer Center and the University of South Carolina School of Medicine.

Jason received his medical degree from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in Miami, FL. His focus there was in the area of Orthopedic Surgery and excelled once again academically scoring in the 99th percentile on the National Board of Medical Examiners Licensing Exam. Although granted interviews at the top Orthopedic programs in the country, such as the NYU Hospital for Joint Diseases, he chose to forego surgical residency training at that time.
