Sports medicine and injury care in Waxhaw
You don't have to be a competitive athlete to benefit from sports medicine. We care for athletes and active people of all ages who are dealing with an injury, pain or a condition that makes it harder to move comfortably.
Our sports medicine providers evaluate injuries involving muscles, joints and soft tissues and can develop a treatment plan based on your condition, activity level and goals. Whether you want to return to a sport, get back to an exercise routine or move through everyday life more comfortably, we'll help you work toward a safe recovery.

If an injury needs additional evaluation, our team can help determine the next steps in your care and connect you with additional orthopedic or specialty services when needed.
On-site X-rays, ultrasound and lab testing
When you need testing, you may be able to complete it during your visit instead of traveling to another location. Our Waxhaw clinic offers digital X-rays and diagnostic ultrasound to help providers evaluate certain injuries and health concerns.
We also offer lab services, including blood draws, urinalysis and throat cultures, so your provider can get more of the information needed to guide your care.
Physical therapy to help you get moving again
Physical therapy is available at our clinic to help you recover from an injury, improve strength and mobility, and return to the activities that matter to you.
Your physical therapy plan can be tailored to your needs and goals, whether you're recovering from a sports injury, working to move with less discomfort or preparing to safely return to an active lifestyle.
Same-day and next-day family medicine visits
When you're sick, you may not want to wait several days to see your primary care provider. We reserve same-day and next-day family medicine appointments when possible to help you get care sooner.
