Center of Excellence

Sports Medicine

Diagnosis and treatment of sports and activity-related injuries for athletes and active people.

Overview

The Sports Medicine center treats injuries to the muscles, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage that come from sports, exercise, work, and everyday activity.

The team includes both surgical and non-operative sports medicine specialists, so patients start with the right level of care and move to arthroscopic or reconstructive surgery only when it is needed.
