Family Medicine Residency Program
Family Medicine: Program Overview - Sports Medicine

We introduce our residents to sports medicine as part of the family medicine curriculum because this type of treatment extends far beyond the playing field. Our curriculum is tailored to each resident's needs and interests. Sports medicine gives our residents the opportunity to examine, diagnose and treat common joint pathology under more extreme conditions than they'd generally find in a primary care facility. They learn skills that not only get players back in the game, but workers back on the job and the elderly back on their feet.

We work with a variety athletic programs and organizations in the area including:
  • Texas Christian University Athletics
  • Southern Methodist University Athletics
  • Fort Worth ISD
  • Arlington ISD
  • Texas Wesleyan Athletics
  • Fort Worth Cats
  • Tour de Cure Bicycle Marathon
  • Golden Gloves
  • Pro Rodeo Cowboy's Association
  • Pro Bull Rider's Association
