The University of Bridgeport Athletic Training Staff has assembled a large, multi-disciplinary group of physicians and medical practitioners to address the needs of the student-athletes. This is accomplished by utilizing physicians and surgeons from the Orthopedic Specialty Group, P.C. (OSG). This approach to sports medicine provides the Athletic Trainers at UB the a unique approach to treating a diverse population of student-athletes and their individual injuries.
In addition to providing high quality care to the student-athletes, the sports medicine staff provides clinical education experience for Quinnipiac University and Sacred Heart University athletic training students. As competent preceptors they oversee and provide advanced sports medicine instruction in the Athletic Training Room and on the field/court. This gives the athletic training students experience providing treatments and therapies, on and off-field assessments and emergency evaluations, all of which are vital aspects of being an Athletic Trainer.
