Orthopedic Sports Medicine : A 16 page paper
discussing
the state of evolution of orthopedic sports medicine. It often
carries the remnant of the skepticism of years past, when those
involved just seemed not to fit anywhere. The physicians
involved in orthopedic sports medicine often were looked on as
M.D.s that simply couldnt compete in the world of real
medicine, and the lay people involved as trainers and support
personnel to the performing athletes were regarded as would-be
athletes with the same disabilities. But times are changing.
Orthopedic sports medical practitioners are being viewed as
competent as any other M.D. in any other specialty, and sound
research is contributing to the overall well of knowledge
regarding injury, treatment options and patient outcomes.
