Our ER doctors treat all types of traumas that you may suffer while engaging in sports, including broken bones, muscle strains, sprained ankle or wrist, dislocated shoulder, and head injury, such as concussion.
Important: If you or another person suffer a head injury while playing sports or at any other time, get examined immediately by your doctor or at our Emergency Room, especially in the case of a loss of consciousness for any length of time.
