We are pleased to introduce a Sports Medicine Clinic in West Omaha, offering access in one location to a comprehensive team of physicians and health care professionals trained in Sports Medicine.

The sports medicine professionals at Nebraska Medicine understand that athletes dont have to wear uniforms and athletic injuries happen anywhere, not just on athletic fields. An athlete is defined by age, gender, skill level or activity. Injuries resulting from a variety of activities can range from a sprained ankle to a more serious injury such as a sports related concussion.

Common injuries which may necessitate sports medicine include:

Because no two sports related injuries are alike, the medical center has built a sports medicine program that brings together physicians and professionals from specialties and sub-specialties who are committed to working together to develop a customized treatment and rehabilitation program for each patient.

The program is uniquely designed to meet the physical needs of where the patient is today, as well as establish the foundation for where they would like to be in the future. Experts from a variety of specialty areas collaborate on diagnosis and treatment ensure that patients receive a comprehensive interdisciplinary plan of care to achieve the best possible outcome.

A multidisciplinary team of experts work together within the Sports Medicine program. To make an appointment with the Sports Medicine team at Nebraska Medicine, call 800-922-0000 and an operator will transfer you to the program coordinator, Rusty McKune, ATC.

When the city of Omaha hosts a sporting event of national caliber, Nebraska Medicine, University of Nebraska Medical Center and UNMC Physicians work together as the trusted provider of medical services.

The multidisciplinary sports medicine program ensures that world-class athletes are able compete at their peak performance. We are proud to provide care for the 2013 Prudential U.S. Figure Skating Championships and the 2012 Olympic Swim Trials.
