Sports Medicine

Our Sports Medicine program provides a full range of sports medicine and athletic training services to athletes in the Wood County area. The program deals with the unique needs of athletes of all ages, ranging from middle and high school students, collegiate athletes at Bowling Green State University, to weekend warriors.

We are committed to the belief that the same quality care available to professional athletes should be given to each and every individual. Through an integrated approach with our patients, families and coaches, we strive to deliver on that principle.

Free Sports Trauma Clinic 

In order to maintain all the CDC/WCH regulations, the sports trauma clinic will not offer a walk-in clinic for the 20/21 season. Specific appointment times to be seen by an athletic trainer and physician will be made by the trainer with students from our contract schools (Bowling Green, Elmwood, Eastwood) that have a traumatic injury.

Students from other schools are encouraged to make an appointment to be seen directly in one of our physician or orthopedic offices.​

Athletic Training

Our staff of certified and licensed athletic trainers work closely with high school athletes and coaches to prevent injuries, optimize performance, and return injured athletes to competition as soon as possible. They provide on-site coverage to Bowling Green, Eastwood and Elmwood high schools.

Running Analysis

Digital recording allows therapists to analyze running gait at key points in the running cycle.  This information can be used to prescribe running-specific exercises and to correct running form through video feedback and step rate manipulation training.  Therapists educate patients on use of a metronome to improve running form and efficiency.  This program is available as part of our physical therapy services or as a fee-based service for community members.

Coaches Clinic

The Coaches Clinic is designed for coaches required to obtain a Pupil Activity Permit approved by the Ohio Department of Education. The Pupil Activity Permit is required for a pupil activity program that involves athletics, routine or required physical activity or activities with health and safety considerations.

Summer Sports Performance Training

Sports Performance Training is a summer program offered in June and July for teens ages 12 and older. The program is designed around the individual's schedule. Athletes will be grouped together in small groups for an hour-long session. Each athlete will be evaluated by an athletic trainer who will design a program to help take their performance skills to the max. The performance training could include:

• Weight Training
• Flexibility
• Core Conditioning
• Plyometrics/Jump Training/Shuttle TNT
• Vertimax
