Sports Medicine
We serve as team physicians for the Washington Redskins, George Mason University Patriots and eighteen area high schools. Commonwealth Orthopaedics is equipped to help amateur, student and professional athletes alike. Whether it is an injury or just normal wear and tear, we work closely with our patients to develop individualized treatment plans to help them get back in the game.
Sports Team Physicians
As active members of their local community, many of our physicians serve as team physicians for professional, collegiate and area high school athletic teams. Many also serve as coaches, in youth athletics, as leaders in civic organizations and as volunteers for medical missions and other nonprofit causes. To see what teams that our physicians are associated with and to read more about them, choose from the menu below. For a complete listing of the area high schools and their team physicians go here.
