Specialized Care for Common Musculoskeletal Problems

We diagnose, treat and rehabilitate many athletic injuries, while helping you achieve and exceed your health and fitness goals. Specialized treatment is available for:

  • Acute injuries, such as ankle sprains, muscle strains, knee and shoulder injuries and fractures
  • Overuse injuries, such as rotator cuff and other forms of tendonitis; stress fracture
  • Medical and injection therapies for osteoarthritis

Innovative Sports Medicine Techniques to Speed Healing

Caring for an injured athlete is more than just applying a brace. Our sports medicine physicians provide hands-on, proven techniques that target the cause of your pain—not the symptoms—to restore strength, function and flexibility.

Whenever possible, we opt for non-surgical solutions, including rehabilitation, advanced joint mobilization, platelet-rich plasma injections and sports massage. If you need something more, we offer minimally invasive procedures designed with athletes in mind. That includes anterior approach surgery, a tissue-sparing alternative to traditional hip replacement that offers less pain, better mobility and faster recovery.

A sports medicine specialist can maximize non-operative treatment, guide appropriate referrals to physical and occupational therapies and, if necessary, expedite referral to an orthopedic surgeon.
