Sports Medicine
Holy Name Medical Center’s Sports Medicine Program is dedicated to treating and preventing injuries related to sports and exercise. The highly skilled staff specializes in helping patients maintain their health and recover from sports-related conditions such as concussions and over-use injuries.
Patients and staff members work together to create individualized exercise and treatment plans that help speed up recovery and address individual needs, from cardiac rehabilitation to Tommy John shoulder conditions.
Directed by J. Christopher Mendler, MD, a board-certified sports medicine specialist, the comprehensive hospital-based program is much more than a single medical practice. The collaborative effort of specialists from varied disciplines helps patients get “game ready” as quickly and safely as possible.
In addition to addressing general sports injuries, the Sports Medicine Program specializes in the following:
- Sports-related concussions
- Activity-related overuse injuries
- Wellness and fitness counseling services
- Treatment plans tailored to each patient
- On-site physical rehabilitation in Teaneck and Oradell
