Sports Medicine

Sports medicine is sometimes called non-surgical orthopedics, since is not just for high-level athletes. This specialty helps Utahns of all ages manage pain, recover, and improve their game without surgery.

You’re used to going strong. But when injury or chronic pain slows down, you need a team approach to get you back on the mend. Ogden Clinic now offers Sports Medicine, a specialty that works closely with our orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists, and primary care physicians.

Sports medicine is an integrated specialty that includes injury prevention, screenings to help you get back in the game, services and treatments for injuries, and solutions for chronic pain including arthritis.

What types of injuries can a sports medicine physician address?

Non-surgical Orthopedic specialists take an integrated approach to problems like bone trauma, muscle injuries, joint issues, and more. They use diagnostic tools like X-rays, MRI, concussion testing, functional movement studies, and exercise testing to diagnose and manage sports injuries.
