Staying active is important to good health and adds to your quality of life. But activity also increases your risk of injury. Sports Medicine is a medical specialty focused on injury prevention, athletic performance enhancement and treatment of sport-related injury.
Our Sports Medicine professionals are active in the community, where we are involved in local chambers of commerce and injury prevention programs like Safe Kids of Hall County. We also hold parent clinics on issues from hydration to concussions, as well as clinics on injury prevention.
NGPG professionals act as team physicians and trainers for local schools. Our athletic trainers are at the schools each day, on the field at the games and assist at practices where we are honored to be part of the teams at the following local high schools and colleges/universities:
