Family Medicine
Family Medicine is a medical specialty devoted to comprehensive health care for people of all ages. Unlike other specialties that are limited to a particular organ or disease, family medicine integrates care for patients of all genders and every age, and advocates for the patient in a complex health care system.
Sports Medicine
Sports Medicine, also known as sports and exercise medicine, is a branch of medicine that deals with physical fitness and the treatment and prevention of injuries related to sports and exercise. It focuses on helping people improve their athletic performance, recover from injury and prevent future injuries. It is a fast-growing health care field because health workers who specialize in sports medicine help many “regular” people as well as athletes.
