How We Help
A primary care sports medicine doctor is like your family doctor but with special expertise and training in sports medicine. This type of doctor sees athletes as well as active people who have an injury or a condition preventing them from participating in their sport or activity, whether it’s football, running or pickle ball. A primary care sports medicine doctor will create a custom treatment plan, which may include medications, injections, a referral to physical therapy and other treatments.
Our Services
- Ultrasound to diagnose ligament and tendon injuries, muscle tears and nerve issues, including diagnostic injections. We also use other types of tests to diagnose sports-related conditions, including compartment pressure measurement testing.
- Nonsurgical treatments, including platelet-rich plasma injections, prolotherapy, percutanetous needle tenotomy, corticosteroids, hyaluronic acid and other ultrasound-guided injections, as well treatments to relieve pressure on a pinched nerve or drain a cyst.
- Sport- and injury-specific return-to-sport testing to ensure an optimal and safe return to activity, including our specialized program for performing artists and female athletes.
- Consultatations on nutrition, supplements, and safety
- Injury prevention: We offer comprehensive evaluations of body mechanics to screen for movement patterns or muscular imbalances that may increase your risk for injury. We then provide a tailored training program to help you adjust your technique to avoid injury and improve athletic performance.
- Coordiantion of care with your orthopaedic surgeon and physical therapists, which may include pre-surgery strengthening (pre-hab) and a post-surgery rehabilitation plan (rehab).
