BAPTIST HEALTH Sports Medicine. Giving more Arkansans another chance at victory.
Nearly every athlete and active person has had that unfortunate moment. The instant when your body crosses
the line — the line between what your body can and what it cannot do. You sprain an ankle. Strain an
elbow. Or something more serious. You’re not alone. Nearly 7 million sports injuries are reported
every year. Good thing you have the ultimate MVP on your team. BAPTIST HEALTH Sports Medicine helps active
people return to the lifestyle they love.
Sports injury have you sidelined?
No matter how young and invincible you are, neglecting a sports injury can lead to serious consequences. Every
Saturday during the football season, BAPTIST HEALTH and OrthoArkansas are holding a sports medicine clinic
featuring orthopedic specialists who can help get you back in the game. The clinic is open to anyone.
