Program Overview

The LSU Health Baton Rouge Sports Medicine Fellowship, formerly located at Baton Rouge General Regional Medical Center, is a 1-year ACGME-accredited fellowship program. Fellows work closely with multi-specialty Sports Medicine preceptors to provide care in a busy Sports Medicine/Orthopedic clinic, two Division I collegiate athletic programs (LSU and Southern University), and two local high school athletic programs.

Our program is broken down into several longitudinal rotation experiences and provides fellows with ample required ultrasound experiences empowering them with the knowledge needed to perform ultrasound procedures with confidence and proficiency.  Fellows are also exposed to regenerative and alternative treatments for musculoskeletal injuries utilizing the most up to date treatment modalities.  Our curriculum focuses on hands-on experiences at both collegiate and local high school sporting events as well as clinical work with related subspecialties such as orthopedics, nutrition, and cardiology. Our fellows provide sideline coverage across multiple sports at a variety of competition levels ensuring a diverse experience. This includes LSU home games alongside the LSU Health Emergency Medicine Residency Airway Team.  There are mass LSU and surrounding community event coverage opportunities such as the Louisiana Marathon.
