Sports Medicine: The Primary Care Perspective
Abstract
Annotation: Dr. Jim Puffer has impeccable credentials to discuss the evolution of sports medicine as a primary care specialty. A founding member of the Primary Care Sports Medicine Fellowships and head USA Team Physician for the 24th Olympiad, Dr. Puffer’s leadership in Sports Medicine is legend. As the aggregate musculoskeletal expertise and surgical triage abilities of the primary care sports medicine physician sharpen, the responsibilities of those physicians broaden.

Equally important is the specific and growing collaboration between primary care sports medicine and orthopaedic sports medicine in the greater sports medicine world.This content is limited to qualifying members.
