about providing access to top of the line services for our local athletes. We are fortunate to have them working along
with our other physicians to provide great family medicine and extra efforts
related to athletics.”—Jon Doolittle, CEO Northwest Medical Center
“Our walk-in clinic is part of Northwest Medical
Center’s broad suite of sports medicine services. The goal of our clinic is to provide quick
and convenient treatment of injuries and to provide patient-centered care that
aligns with the patient’s existing care relationships. As a care team, we focus on maximizing healthy
participation in sports and other life activities. Through our services at Northwest Medical
Center and outreach services such as our athletic trainer and IMPACT concussion
testing, we feel confident that our local athletes will be cared for and will
be returned to play as efficiently and as safely as possible.”—Dr. Katie Dias,
DO, Northwest Medical Center
Since opening its doors on August 7th, the clinic has
treated patients with injuries ranging from knee and ankle problems to
concussions and lacerations. As an
extension of the clinic, an athletic trainer is made available to Albany and
Stanberry athletes. This partnering relationship
ensures that athletes receive the treatments they need quickly. Albany High School Athletic Director, Kurtis
Cox, states that the clinic is a welcomed service to our community
”Our partnership with the Sports Medicine Clinic and
trainer program is running smoothly. I
know that our athletes’ parents appreciate the services, as well. They don’t have to drive out-of-town to
receive the
treatments that they need. Our student-athletes receive excellent care,
in or near their hometowns.”—Kurtis Cox, Albany High School Athletic Director
