Sports Medicine

Message from Dr. Lee Mancini:

Welcome to Sports Medicine! I am excited to have you on this rotation. I want you to get the most out of this sports medicine experience. I want you to feel that this is a rotation where you learned how to manage patients in your own primary care clinic, where you learned how to master joint specific exams, where you learned about the full spectrum of sports medicine, and most of all where you enjoyed your time. I personally want you to feel that this rotation is an invaluable outpatient experience.

Please read this complete orientation packet to prepare for this rotation – prior to your first day. Please let me know if you have ANY questions. There are several questions that I need you to answer prior to your first day.

As you read through the guide, you will be asked to reference the following, put here for your convenience:

• Google drive so you can download important powerpoint presentations
