Sports Medicine

Injuries that occur during or related to athletic competition have become common among today’s active population. At the Shore Medical Center Advanced Spine and Orthopedic Institute, our philosophy is to provide all athletes – both professional and recreational - with the same high quality level of care.

Our dedication to keeping the athletic community healthy and active is evidenced by the comprehensive nature of our programming. In addition to providing specialized assessment and treatment for sports-related injuries, our clinical team is also actively involved in educating our area’s athletes, coaches and parents about injury prevention and recognition. We believe that educational programming is an integral factor to our success, and that by providing programs to the community which teach proper strength building, flexibility, conditioning, endurance and training techniques, we can help to minimize the risk of injury occurrence.
