What is a sports medicine specialist?
A physician with significant specialized training in both the treatment and prevention of illness and injury. The sports medicine specialist helps patients maximize function and minimize disability and time away from sports, work or school.
What is the difference between a sports medicine specialist and an orthopedic surgeon?
Both are well trained in musculoskeletal medicine. Sports medicine specialists specialize in the non-operative treatment of musculoskeletal conditions. Orthopedic surgeons are also trained in the operative treatment of these conditions. However, approximately 90% of all sports injuries are non-surgical. The sports medicine specialist can maximize non-operative treatment, guide appropriate referrals to physical and occupational therapies, and if necessary expedite referrals to an orthopedic/sports surgeon.
