Is sports medicine right for me?

You don’t have to be an athlete to benefit from what a sports physician can provide. If you’re seeking to become more active or begin an exercise program, a sports physician can help, promoting lifelong fitness and wellness, and encouraging the prevention of illness and injury.

Drs. Jack Skendzel and Angela Voight discuss some of the ways that sports medicine can benefit people from all walks of life, not just elite athletes in the featured video below.

Dr. Perra takes the time to explain what's going on with my joints and often grabs a replica of a knee or shoulder to show whats going on in detail.  He always listens to my questions and answers them using terminology that I'd understand.  Dr. Perra is a great all around doctor that I'd recommend to others.

Dr. Scofield is a fantastic doctor!!! Right there with Dr. Donohue and Dr. Holm. You have fantastic doctors and believe me, I've had my share of sports injuries. I always tell people to go to Summit.
