Concussion Management Q & A

Overview

Metro Orthopedic Sports & Therapy primarily evaluates and treats orthopedic injuries but is introducing a new concussion clinic run by world-renowned concussion researcher and retired Army Colonel, Dr. Michael Lewis, MD. The concussion clinic will evaluate and treat patients who sustain a head injury during any activity. From sports injuries, to falls, to old injuries that have recently produced symptoms, we wish to help all those who struggle with head injuries.

Mission
