Primary Care Sports Medicine

The curriculum will include multiple experiences in primary care sports medicine. A sample of a weekly schedule of clinic time and other experiences would be the following: - 9-10 half days of Primary Care Sports Medicine at the Ryan Center, BMC at Melnea Cass, Boston Sports Performance Center, and community health centers - Wednesday Morning Sports Medicine Conference 7 am - via Zoom - 1/2-day BU Athletic Training Room physician clinic working one on one with one of the primary care sports medicine physician as they evaluate BU student athletes - Game coverage: will vary depending on the time of year and block but anticipate at least 1-2 game coverage opportunities per week of the elective. Please note much of the game coverage occurs in the evening and/or the weekends, so student needs to be aware they may have to work late and possibly on the weekends. - A car is recommended; however we can make adjustments if the student does not have access to a car. The student will be evaluated throughout their rotation on their musculoskeletal examination skills. Students who will derive the most benefit from this rotation are self-motivated and active learners.
