“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.”
– Dr. George Sheehan (1975), long distance runner and one of the world’s first sports medicine physicians
