KentuckyOne Health Opens Sports Medicine Urgent Care Clinic
New clinic will provide care to athletes of all ages, with semi-emergency and after-hours injuries

Louisville, Ky. (September 1, 2016) – KentuckyOne Health has opened a new Sports Medicine Urgent Care Clinic at Medical Center Jewish Northeast, part of KentuckyOne Health. The clinic opened today and is located at 2401 Terra Crossing Boulevard in Louisville. The clinic will offer the best after-hours orthopedic care and provide acute outpatient services to injured athletes in need of semi-emergency or after-hours care.   
 
"The new clinic will provide specialized care in an efficient manner, offering patients a high level of sports medicine expertise” said Neil Patil, MD, Shea Orthopedic Group, part of KentuckyOne Health. This clinic will be the best outlet for athletes with injuries like sprains or fractures that require immediate attention, but may not warrant an emergency room visit.”
 
The Sports Medicine Urgent Care Clinic at Medical Center Jewish Northeast is equipped to treat a wide range of sports-related injuries, including ankle injuries, bone fractures, arthritis-related injuries and more. Physicians will also be able to administer splints and braces, as well as other treatments. The clinic will provide the same quality of sports medicine care that is used to treat collegiate athletes, but will be open to athletes of all ages and abilities.

The KentuckyOne Health Sports Medicine Program offers a comprehensive range of services including education, prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and wellness from a specially trained and certified staff, ensuring the highest quality of care possible.
