Sports Medicine Clinic
With an increasing emphasis on exercise as part of a healthy lifestyle has come an increase in recreational activities and organized athletics. The growth of organized youth sports in particular contributes the risk for sports-related injuries. According to the American Academy of Sports Medicine, 3 million children ages 14 and under get hurt annually playing sports or participating in recreational activities—approximately 800,000 of them serious enough to warrant a trip to the ER.
When injuries occur, it is no longer enough for athletes to "take it easy for awhile" or "work through it." Sports medicine professionals like VMC's Wuaca Luna, MD, offer a new approach—diagnosis, treatment, and sport-specific rehabilitation. Whether you are a dancer, skier, Little Leaguer, or someone who just likes to keep as active as possible, our goal is to keep you at your game.
The Sports Medicine Clinic at Valley Medical Center is located at 3600 Lind Avenue Southwest in Renton, Washington, tel. 425.656.4260.
