Young athletes are built differently. That’s why our Sports Medicine Center offers dedicated services to help developing players, prepare, heal and perform their best.

Sports medicine services

Built for the demands of competition, our performance and sports medicine services include:

  • Concussion diagnosis, guidance and return-to-sport or return-to-learn recovery plans in our comprehensive concussion program
  • Fracture management with same-day X-rays, splinting and casting for broken bones
  • Surgeons dually trained in pediatric orthopedic surgery and sports medicine to provide injury-specific surgery
  • Consultations for sports-related challenges, including balanced nutrition, breathing conditions like exercise-induced asthma and injury complications
  • Sports nutrition consultations with a board-certified sports dietitian to help young athletes optimize their sports performance
  • Customized recovery plans to maximize young athletes' strength and bring them back from injury safely
  • Opportunities for athletes to participate in innovative research and gain access to the most advanced treatments

Specialized programs and clinics for athletes

Just as many athletes are specialized in their sports, we offer a variety of specific clinics, labs and gyms to support their unique training demands, including:

Sports movement analysis

The Center for Gait and Movement Analysis uses 3D motion analysis and observation to assess young athletes’ performance and movement. A sports analysis can be helpful to ensure a safe return from an injury or to elevate performance.

Physical therapy for athletes

Our Sports Medicine Physical Therapy Program can help competitors regain function and get back on the field after an injury or other diagnosis. Our sports medicine physical therapists are experts in rehabilitation of sports-related injuries and conditions including sprains and strains, overuse injuries, ACL tears and other post-surgical recovery.
