Sports Medicine Physician
Physicians at GRSM specialize in sports medicine and are certified with the Canadian Academy of Sport Medicine (CASM) . Our physicians provide expert medical care for both high performance athletes, recreational athletes and active individuals. GRSM sports medicine physicians specialize in:
- assessing and treatment of athletic injuries
- managing of exercise-related medical problems (e.g. exercise induced asthma)
- exercise counselling for a healthy lifestyle
- preventing athletic injuries and medical problems
Physician visits are covered by OHIP. You must present a valid health card at each visit.
"If athletes were given less care and more thought, the doctors might come up with some original ideas on why illness persists, why injury doesn't clear up. If more non-physicians - podiatrists and physiotherapists, for instance - could be induced to lend their ideas and talents, we might see a completely new approach to sports medicine."
