About
"We can individualize a particular patient's injury, combining the physical therapist and athletic trainers. Then we can make a plan, surgical or non-surgical, to get an athlete back to doing what they love to do as quickly as possible. " — Matthew J. Bollier
Matthew Bollier, MD, is an orthopedic surgeon in the Sports Medicine Clinic, and he specializes in knee and shoulder injuries. Dr. Bollier received his medical degree from Loyola University's Stritch School of Medicine in Chicago before doing his residency at Michigan State University and a fellowship in Sports Medicine at the University of Connecticut.
