What is Sports Medicine?

Can a sports medicine doctor help me?

The word ‘sport’ may lead you to think that a sports doctor only treats athletes! However, sports physicians have expertise throughout the field of musculoskeletal medicine and the management of conditions affecting muscles, tendons, bones and joints, whether sport-related or not!
In the UK, a sports physician is a medical doctor who specialises in the field of sports and exercise medicine. They are trained to diagnose, treat, and reduce the risk of injuries related to sports and exercise as well as from general overuse or 'wear and tear'.
Their experience of working with patients from a wide array of sporting activities is particularly helpful in understanding the specific demands, requirements or injury risks attached to each sport. A sport and exercise medicine consultant can provide novel effective non-surgical treatments across a spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions. With access to a strong and experienced network of health professionals, they will also ensure that you are connected with the most appropriate and specialised rehabilitation therapists to guide your recovery.

Patient Journey

Every patient is different and Dr Sheridan will always ensure you are given the time and attention you need in order to accurately diagnose and effectively treat your injury and symptoms. A typical treatment plan however will follow the timeline below with the advantage that point of care ultrasound diagnostics and ultrasound-guided-injections can be performed within your clinic appointment if required. This avoids the need for onward referral to another clinician and service.
