The primary care sports medicine fellowship is a one-year program designed to provide an additional education and experience opportunity for those interested in sports medicine as a part of their professional career.  The fellowship is a fully accredited program of CMC-NorthEast and the Cabarrus Family Medicine Residency Program, which is affiliated with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the Charlotte Area Health Education Center.

 

Our program is focused on continuing the physician's skills in family practice while gaining direct experience in sports medicine and musculoskeletal care by assuming the primary role as team physician at the high school level and taking an active role in the coverage at the Division II level in all sports through Catawba College. The sports medicine fellow works in a variety of settings, including the training room, sidelines, and clinically in the orthopedic office and in our dedicated Sports Medicine and Injury Center under the supervision of faculty who have extensive experience in sports medicine.
