Sports Medicine

The orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine providers at Orthopedics & Sports Medicine BayCare Clinic evaluate, treat and manage a wide array of injuries sustained by athletes, workers and active people.

Sports medicine treatment is tailored to each person’s sport- or activity-specific interests and functional goals. We recommend noninvasive, nonsurgical treatment options when possible. However, some injuries are best treated with surgery to ensure the best outcome. 

 

What our sports medicine providers treat

Injuries treated by our sports medicine providers typically are:

• Acute injuries, which include but are not limited to sprains, strains and dislocations; fractures; and cartilage, tendon and ligament injuries.
• Chronic injuries, which include those from overuse because of repetitive activity, such as tendinitis. Overuse injuries include carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, IT band friction syndrome and patellar tendinitis. 

What our sports medicine providers offer

Our sports medicine services include:

• Orthopedic surgery
• Regenerative medicine, also known as orthobiologics
• Injury assessments
• Physical therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Sports conditioning
• Athletic screenings

Our sports medicine care begins with injury assessments to ensure fast intervention and appropriate treatment. Receiving timely care is crucial to full recovery.

 

Individual rehabilitation plans focus on improving healing potential and helping people return to their desired level of function.  A combination of movement assessment, corrective exercise and modalities are utilized.

 

Our goal is to create individualized care plans to reduce pain, improve mobility, reduce the likelihood of further injury and return people to their normal activities as quickly and safely as possible.

 

Orthopedics & Sports Medicine BayCare Clinic is the official sports medicine partner of high schools, athletic teams and organizations and fitness businesses throughout northeastern Wisconsin.
