Primary Care Sports Medicine

Patient Care

Our Sports Medicine Physicians specialize in the non-operative medical treatment of musculoskeletal sports conditions. Our orthopedic surgeon colleagues are also trained in the operative treatment of these conditions.

Approximately 90% of all sports injuries are non-surgical, and our Sports Medicine Physicians can expedite referral to an orthopedic / sports surgeon when indicated, and can help guide referrals to appropriate rehabilitative care and ancillary services as needed.

Common examples of musculoskeletal problems include:

•  Acute injuries (such as ankle sprains, muscle strains, knee & shoulder injuries, and fractures)
•  Overuse injuries (such as tendonitis, stress fractures)  

Our Sports Medicine Physicians have also received training in the non-musculoskeletal aspects of sports medicine.  Common examples of these include:  

• Mild traumatic brain injury (sports-related concussion)
•  Athletes with chronic or acute illness (such as infectious mononucleosis, asthma or diabetes)
• Nutrition, supplements, ergogenic aids and performance issues
•  Exercise prescription for patients who want to increase their fitness
• Injury prevention    

Special services we provide:

•  Musculoskeletal Ultrasound- diagnostic and ultrasound guided-injections
• Bike Fits
• Exertional Compartment Pressure Testing
• Specialized injections (platelet-rich plasma) for recalcitrant soft-tissue overuse injuries
