A young athlete is not just a small adult. They require special care from experts who understand the complexities of growing bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons. As a father of three young athletes, I understand and appreciate kids' passion for their sports. For many young athletes, their team is their primary peer and friend group. I also recognize that injuries and delays in treatment can affect opportunities, including scholarships. I know it is important to support both a young athlete's immediate goal to return to their sport, but also the long-term goal of sustained fitness, health, and athletic performance. My focus is not only on treating injuries and getting young athletes back onto the field or court, but also preventing future problems.
