Sports Injury Treatment

Comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of sports injuries including sprains, strains, fractures, dislocations, tendinitis, and overuse injuries. Treatment options range from physical therapy and injection therapies (PRP, cortisone) to arthroscopic surgery and ligament reconstruction.

Approach: Conservative first, surgery when needed | Includes: Diagnosis, imaging, treatment, rehab

Tommy John Surgery

Tommy John surgery (UCL reconstruction) replaces a torn ulnar collateral ligament in the elbow with a tendon graft. Essential for overhead athletes — especially baseball pitchers — who need to return to throwing sports. Over 85% of athletes return to their previous level of competition.

Success rate: 85-95% | Return to sport: 12-18 months | Most common in: Baseball pitchers

PRP Injections

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to deliver growth factors that promote tissue healing. PRP is effective for chronic tendon injuries, mild-to-moderate osteoarthritis, and muscle injuries in athletes. Most patients need 1-3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

Cost: $500-$2,000/session (cash pay) | Sessions: 1-3 | Best for: Tendon injuries, mild OA

Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy (BMAC or adipose-derived) uses your body's own regenerative cells to promote healing of damaged tissues. Used for knee osteoarthritis, chronic tendon injuries, and focal cartilage defects. Most effective in younger patients with mild-to-moderate conditions.

Cost: $3,000-$10,000 (cash pay) | Insurance: Not covered | Best for: OA, cartilage defects
