The HCMC Primary Care Sports Medicine Fellowship is based within our department. The University of Minnesota and Methodist Hospital/ Park Nicollet Health Services also contribute to the fellowship. Four sports medicine fellows are trained each year.

The clinic-based fellowship provides training for our residents in the areas of musculoskeletal diagnosis and treatment, medical issues in athletes and physically active individuals, exercise and nutrition. Our residents also participate in didactic sessions in sports medicine presented by the fellows, a physical therapist and the sports medicine faculty.

Opportunities are available to work with athletes of all varieties. Our residents work with high school and college athletes in both a clinic setting and athletic training rooms. Sideline experiences are also available to those who are interested.
