Why See a Sports Medicine Specialist?
A sports medicine specialist is trained to care for athletes and active individuals of all levels. They receive special education and training that focuses on the medical and therapeutic aspects of sports participation and physical activities, and understand what you need to recover from an injury and return to peak performance as quickly as possible.
Sports and fitness are essential parts of your healthy lifestyle, but sprained ankles and bad breaks can send you to the sidelines. At Northwestern Medicine Orthopaedics, our sports medicine specialists are board-certified to provide comprehensive care to help athletes and active individuals of all ages recover from injuries, reach peak performance and stay healthy.
