The Program

With an emphasis on prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation, UI Sports Medicine brings together experts from various medical disciplines to treat the athletes of all ages and skill levels, from the child just getting started to the veteran weekend warriors, from the beginner to professional.

Our multi-disciplinary approach brings together faculty from family medicine, pediatrics and orthopaedics and staff from rehabilitation therapies. With physicians who have a world-class reputation, backed by an Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation Department ranked in the top 10 by U.S.News & World Report, our emphasis on clinical care, research and education helps take injured athletes from off the sidelines back to the playing field as fast as possible.

For 30 years, UI Sports Medicine has taken care of the Hawkeyes. Now the same staff that takes care of the Hawkeyes can take care of you. With experts in knee injuries, shoulder and elbow injuries, and sports medicine rehabilitation, we offer a full spectrum of care from the casual strain of the weekend warrior to the treatment and rehabilitation of serious game-ending injuries.
