Meet our sports health team

Our sports health team includes:

• Athletic trainers: Working in clinics and on the sidelines, athletic trainers help prevent, diagnose and treat sports injuries. All of our athletic trainers are licensed, and many hold master’s degrees and certifications in sports-related fields. Meet our athletic trainers.
• Chiropractors: We use hands-on techniques to relieve painful symptoms and promote healing. Chiropractic care is not just for lower back pain - we help athletes overcome knee, elbow, hip and shoulder problems, too. Meet our chiropractors.
• Primary care sports medicine doctors: These experts specialize in nonsurgical treatments like bracing, as well as special exercises to promote healing. They also help you bounce back from injuries that can get in the way of your daily life, like concussions. 
• Orthopedic surgeons: Our surgeons are among the first in Wisconsin to perform innovative surgical techniques, including minimally invasive arthroscopic procedures and more. These complex procedures use small incisions, which help you recover faster and get back to your favorite activities.
• Neurologist: Our sports neurology fellowship trained neurologist treats elite athletes from many disciplines. She studied under some of the most renowned sports neurologists and concussion specialists worldwide. She will use that knowledge and her professional experience to come up with the best treatment for you. Meet our neurologist.
• Physical therapists: Physical therapy can help you improve strength and flexibility before and after surgery – or help you avoid surgery altogether. And since we have a large number of physical therapists throughout eastern Wisconsin, it’s easy to get high-quality care close to where you live or work. Learn more about physical therapy.
