The UI Sports Medicine staff works with elite athletes, weekend warriors, and average active people, young and old.

All of our primary care and orthopedic physicians have served specialized, year-long fellowships in sports medicine, beyond customary medical school and residency training.
Our athletic trainers and physical therapists are trained to specialize in the management of athletic injuries.
As faculty of the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine, our physicians engage in national and international research studies that keep us informed on the latest methods, therapies, and trends in sports medicine.
