00009553.jpgSports Medicine

We employ a team approach to treat athletes and non-athletes alike. Physicians and physical therapists work together to evaluate, diagnose and treat each patient so that he or she can return to normal activity as soon as safely possible. For example, following treatment or surgery for an injury, a patient would be educated for home exercises as well as referred for formal physical therapy. We also offer sub-specialty programs including adolescent sports medicine and healthy kneed initiatives.
