Orthopedic Non-Operative Primary Care Sports Medicine Physician

Inova Primary Care Sports Medicine is seeking a passionate Non-Operative Primary Care Sports Medicine physician to provide non-surgical musculoskeletal care in our new “After Hours” Orthopedic care program in Fairfax, VA!

Our sports medicine team is one of the few in the region with fellowship-trained sports medicine specialists – primary care physicians who received intensive training and education in sports medicine.

At our center, we use a collaborative approach to care. Our physicians, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers work together, drawing on their expertise to deliver an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plan for each patient.

At Inova Sports Medicine, you will find:

Centralized services: We know your time is valuable. We’ve streamlined the care process so making appointments with a specialist or for a procedure is seamless and hassle free. You can find everything you need at Inova, including imaging scans, surgery, injection therapy and physical therapy.

Personalized care: We go beyond assessing your injury when creating your treatment plan. Our team considers your overall health, activity level and performance or health goals. Your input is crucial in determining the most effective treatment for your injury.

Advanced ultrasound procedures: We use ultrasound-guided injection therapy to treat many sports-related injuries. An injection delivers a substance, such as a steroid or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, directly to the affected area. Ultrasound guidance results in a more precise procedure and a more effective treatment, so you can feel better faster.

Range of treatments: We offer the full spectrum of orthotic devices, including braces and shoe inserts. Our sports medicine-certified physical therapists and athletic trainers provide comprehensive assessment to determine if these treatments are appropriate for you. If you need surgery, our surgeons perform minimally invasive procedures so you recover faster.

Holistic care: Our team includes experts in many areas of sports medicine, including sports psychology, neuropsychology, sports performance, nutrition, orthopedic surgery, osteopathic manipulation and concussion management. In addition, you have access to all the specialists within Inova’s nationally recognized health system, including cardiologists, pulmonologists and trauma specialists.
