Sports Medicine
Sports medicine specializes in preventing, diagnosing and treating injuries related to participating in sports and/or exercise, specifically the rotation or deformation of joints or muscles caused by engaging in such physical activities. The sports medicine "team" includes specialty physicians and surgeons, athletic trainers, physical therapists, coaches, other personnel, as well as the athlete himself/herself.
Because of the competitive nature of sports, a primary focus of sports medicine is the rapid recovery of patients, which drives many innovations in the field.
In collaboration with Dr. Brett Jameson and Ortho Oklahoma, the LMC sports medicine program provides athletic trainers to the Guthrie and Crescent public schools sports programs.
You can call our athletic trainers at 405-260-4371 or e-mail them.
