School, Sports, and Cheerleading Physicals

Physicals are important because they help raise awareness of any issues that may interfere with your child/adolescents ability to participate in a sport. Our physicians will check vitals, joints, and flexibility. A short fitness assessment will also be performed to diagnose and recommend any possible limitations on physical activity.

A sports physical helps identify any conditions that might keep the athlete out of the game or affect performance. Every participant in a school sports team is required to complete a pre-participation physical exam.
