Sports Medicine Center
for Young Athletes

Young athletes should be managed differently from adult athletes:

• Growing bones and cartilage are susceptible to injuries unlike those of a skeletally mature athlete.
• Overuse injuries in young athletes can lead to disability that extends into adulthood.
• As young athletes become increasingly skilled and competitive, the injury rates and significance increase.

That’s why we have developed a program offering young athletes a one-of-a-kind resource for sports injury care and prevention.

The Sports Medicine Center for Young Athletes is the first sports medicine program in Northern California to work exclusively with young athletes.

• Our pediatric sports medicine specialists have extensive knowledge and experience in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of sports-related injuries in children and adolescents.
  
  
• We offer young athletes the most current and comprehensive medical care and educational programming available.
  
  
• It is our objective to facilitate not only the return to the enjoyment of sports quickly, but also safely.
