Primary Care Sports Medicine Faculty

Our Family Medicine Residency Program began in 1970, becoming the 49th program in the United States. Today, this program is a 3-year residency, 9x9x9 program offering the benefits and resources of an academic medical center in a community hospital setting. The Department of Family Medicine is housed within the University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine and is located on the campus of The University of Tennessee Medical Center (UTMC), the region’s only academic medical center, Magnet recognized hospital, and Level I Trauma Center. The University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine (UTGSM), Primary Care Sports Medicine Fellowship is a 1-year ACGME accredited program sponsored by the Department of Family Medicine. The fellowship is designed to provide comprehensive sports medicine training in musculoskeletal and non-musculoskeletal disease in active individuals. We provide coverage for professional, collegiate, and high school athletes as well as the typical "weekend warrior." The fellow will have ample opportunities to work with athletes from the point of injury through the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation process.
