Sports Medicine
UF Health Sports Medicine and Shoulder Surgery in Jacksonville,
Florida provides comprehensive evaluation and care for injured athletes of all ages,
from the professional level to "weekend warriors." Our physicians are fellowship
trained in orthopaedic sports medicine. They are committed to advancing the science
of care for injured athletes by performing original research and educating resident
physicians, physical therapists, athletic trainers and other providers in the community
and throughout the country.
Our University of Florida faculty physicians are specialists who exclusively focus
on the care of injured athletes and the care of patients with shoulder disorders
or injuries. Our physicians are also among only a handful in Northeast Florida practicing
cartilage restoration. They are
an ideal resource for complex cases and for patients who need second opinions after
failed surgical outcomes. Our physicians are well versed in evidence-based medicine
and incorporate these concepts into all facets of the evaluation and treatment of
each patient. In addition to individual patients, they provide orthopaedic medical
care for several Duval County public high schools.
