Sports Medicine physicians are
dedicated to maintaining a patient’s
overall health, but are specifically
trained in the evaluation and
treatment of all illnesses and
injuries related to athletics and
physical fitness. We assist
patients in maximizing function
and minimizing disability and
time away from work, sports, or
school.
For athletes/patients who require a
sports medicine team, the sports
medicine physician would be the
lynchpin of that group of health
professionals, which would
include specialists, surgeons,
athletic trainers, coaches, and
physical therapists.
We are focused on assisting
patients with medical issues that
are precluding them from
exercising and/or improving their
fitness, issues such as obesity,
arthritis, osteoporosis, diabetes,
asthma, etc.
