Sports Medicine
"Sports medicine" has become the general description for any medical and orthopaedic care of the physically active. However, we, the staff and physicians at The Sports Medicine Clinic, firmly believe that no one else in the Pacific Northwest understands and practices sports medicine as we do.
As our name fully attests, the practice of sports medicine has been at the core of The Sports Medicine Clinic since our founding in 1963. Besides specialty training, virtually all of our physicians have also undergone additional advanced sports medicine fellowship training. With our unique and unrivaled sports medicine focus, our primary care physicians and surgeons work seamlessly together to provide you with the full spectrum of the latest medical and surgical care for your sports and work injuries.
As demonstration of our deep commitment to practice sports medicine in its truest spirit, our physicians at The Sports Medicine Clinic bring our expertise to the community and actively serve as team physicians and consultants for Seattle area’s most accomplished sports teams, from high school to collegiate and professional levels. You will also see our physicians providing official medical coverage at many of the popular sports arenas and events across the Puget Sound region, such as the Saint Patrick’s Day Dash, Winter Pineapple Classic, high school football state play-offs, and SeaFair Unlimited Hydroplane Races, where we have been the medical coverage provider since the 1970’s.
Regardless of the cause or the nature of your condition, The Sports Medicine Clinic brings that same level of commitment to helping you overcome your injury and achieve your goals. We work with both youth and adult patients to:
- Reduce pain from general, sports- or work-related conditions or injuries
- Discuss surgical options and/or speed recovery from orthopedic surgery
- Boost athletic performance
- Learn injury-prevention strategies
