Sports Medicine

Sports medicine is a specialized field that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of injuries related to sports and physical activity.  

Sports medicine can help support the needs of athletes and active individuals, addressing not only injuries but also performance optimization to support overall athletic well-being.  

Specialists in sports medicine often combine their medical expertise with collaboration with allied health professionals such as physiotherapists and nutritionists. This collaborative approach ensures individuals receive a comprehensive and holistic treatment plan that addresses both immediate concerns and long-term performance goals. 

If you experience any of the following conditions or situations related to sports or physical activity, it’s recommended to consult with a sports medicine specialist. 

• Acute injuries such as sprains, strains, or fractures 
• Chronic conditions affecting muscles, joints, or bones 

• Overuse injuries from repetitive activities 
• Rehabilitation after orthopedic surgeries 
• Performance enhancement and optimization 
• Sports-specific conditioning and training advice 

 
Our sports medicine specialists provide personalized care, addressing a wide range of issues to enhance performance and support overall well-being. 

To prepare for your sports medicine appointment, provide details about your sports activities, bring any relevant medical records, and note specific concerns or symptoms.  

During the appointment, our specialists will conduct a thorough evaluation, discuss your condition, and develop a personalized treatment plan to enhance your athletic performance and well-being. 

As a physical examination is likely, patients may find it useful to wear comfortable clothing during appointments.  

While you can use the WELL Clinics website to find a sports medicine clinic near you, you’ll need a referral from your family doctor, nurse practitioner, or another physician to book a sports medicine appointment.  

Once we receive the referral, our team will promptly contact you to book an appointment.
