From sports physicals and acute concussion treatment to more complex injuries that may require surgery, we’ve got you covered.

When to seek a sports medicine evaluation:

  • You have severe pain and can’t put weight on injured body part
  • Area over or around the injured joint is tender to touch 
  • Injured area looks crooked or has lumps and bumps (other than swelling) 
  • Unable to walk without pain
  • Numbness in any part of injured area
  • You see redness or red streaks spreading from injury
  • Pain, swelling, or redness over injured area
  • Decreased performance

Insurance Information for Youth Athletes

Most insurers do not require an official referral from a primary care physician for injuries sustained in athletic competition.

In addition to your primary insurance, you most likely have “Secondary” or School sponsored insurance plan (this is mandatory for all high-school and college athletes and required by your Athletic Association). This secondary insurance plan will help to cover any additional expenses not covered by your primary insurance plan. To assist you and for your convenience, we will file both primary and secondary insurance claims.

Very knowledgeable and great communicator. I am fortunate to have Dr. Watson as my orthopedic back doctor. I have had back pain for years and have never had a doctor as thorough as Dr. Watson. I highly recommend Dr. Watson. We need more doctors like him.
