Primary Care Sports Medicine in the University Setting
Abstract:
In brief: With sports and exercise participation increasing, there is a growing need for physicians with training in sports medicine. At Michigan State University in East Lansing, several programs have been established to give physicians, residents, and medical students training opportunities in sports medicine. As part of the sports medicine program, five physicians from two medical schools provide regular care to 25 intercollegiate teams. They also see patients with sports-related health concerns in the sports medicine clinic. These training and treatment programs add a number of diverse responsibilities to the work load of the MSU physicians.
