Aerobic instructors, tennis players, lacrosse coaches. But while women play just as hard and run just as fast as men, they face unique challenges when it comes to sports injuries.
Women are more prone to certain types of sprains, strains and tears.
To return to her active lifestyle following an injury, the female athlete needs individualized care from a physician who understands her distinctive needs. Our sports medicine physicians know this and are dedicated to treating each woman's injury individually, not generically. That's why they've created a sports medicine program designed to meet the special needs of women athletes. At Penn Medicine at Radnor, our sports medicine physicians work closely with specialists from Penn Health for Women to provide services designed to help women of all ages get healthy and stay healthy. This includes seminars, aerobic classes and much more.
