At Frankford Hospitals, you'll find some of the most accomplished sports medicine physicians and exercise physiologists in Bucks County and Northeast Philadelphia. These experts lead Frankford's Sports Medicine Team, a new service with a multidisciplinary approach, providing both comprehensive clinical care and education to athletes in any sport at any level - from the professional to the weekend warrior.

The Sports Medicine Team is also available to conduct athletic performance evaluation and training. In this consulting role, the team can help athletes and athletic directors devise training and exercise programs, while also providing clinical diagnosis and evaluation.

Frankford's Sports Medicine Team is managed in part by an Advisory Council comprised of Frankford's physicians, exercise physiologists and sports psychologists. The Council seeks feedback from area athletic directors and athletes to adjust and further grow both the clinical and educational components of the Sports Medicine Team.

Clinical and Educational Components of Frankford’s Sports Medicine Team Include:

Sports Education Program
In addition to high-quality clinical care, Frankford's Sports Medicine Team offers a variety of sports education programs to coaches and athletic trainers from local school districts and community organizations, prior to the start of each sporting season.

Pre-Season Clinics for Players and Coaches
As part of its educational component, Frankford's Sports Medicine Team provides pre-season clinics for players, coaches and athletic directors for a number of sports. The clinics include pre-season physicals, nutrition and exercise counseling for each individual sport. Athletes are also given access to a sports psychologist, who can discuss the mental and motivational side of competitive sports.
