Providing exceptional care in sports medicine
MultiCare Sports Medicine provides exceptional care for any need related to sports and exercise — whether you’re a competitive athlete interested in maximizing your performance or a person aiming to maintain an active lifestyle.
Our program is staffed by board-certified and fellowship-trained sports medicine physicians, athletic trainers and nutritionists. In the Puget Sound region, we work in partnership with Olympic Sports & Spine to provide patients with access to physical, occupational and massage therapists as well as certified athletic trainers. Regardless of where you live, we offer a full scope of services for patients of all activity levels, with a primary focus on:
- Preventing injury
- Improving performance and efficiency
- Providing accurate, rapid diagnosis of injuries
- Facilitating your return to activity quickly and safely
We also understand the unique needs of female athletes. Due to a variety of factors, active women are prone to experiencing certain kinds of sports-related injuries, such as ACL tears and hip or shoulder instability. Whether your focus is on staying fit or competing at the highest level, we’ll help you get back in the game.
