Western Michigan Universtiy
Sports Medicine Clinic
The Western Michigan University Sports Medicine Clinic provides
comprehensive evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries,
repetitive trauma, pain and/or dysfunction. Our goal is to safely
return an individual to activity as soon as possible. WMU Sports
Medicine Clinic is staffed by Certified Sports Medicine Physicians,
Orthopedic Surgeons, a Podiatrist, Certified Athletic Trainers,
and licensed Physical Therapists. Services are open to WMU students,
faculty, and staff, as well as to individuals of the Soutwest
Michigan community.
Why "Sports Medicine?"
Sports Medicine refers to the
type of treatment philosophy
we employ rather than the
type of individual we treat.
While we do see competitive athletes and weekend warriors, many
of our patients do not fall into these categories.
YOU
DO NOT HAVE TO BE AN ATHLETE TO BE SEEN AT THE WMU SPORTS MEDICINE
CLINIC.
Sports medicine evolved as a medical specialty from the need of
athletes to quickly rehabilitate injuries and get back INTO ACTION
as soon as possible and at the same time return to a very high
functional activity level. Athletes were returning to vigorous
levels of competition much sooner than the general population
was even able to return to standard activities. Today, we employ
this treatment philosophy with all our patients: whether your
goal is to run a 5k, to go up a flight of stairs, or to lift your
8-month old child. We understand your desire is to quickly and
safely return to your activities.
