Can you recommend a good sports medicine / orthopaedic doctor or practice? Preferably in the South Bay Area, but I’m willing to drive to a better doc.
Also, can you recommend a family doc who is attuned to the fitness maniac (I mean enthusiast).
My doc is Thomas Wisler at the Palo Alto Medical Clinic. He’s an athlete so he gets it. For example he suggested my current bout of healing some bulging disks in the low back would be an excellent time to improve my swimming. As opposed to another doctor at the same clinic who suggested to a teammate of mine that she is ‘too old for triathlon’ and she is exercising ‘too much’. Don’t have a sports doc recommendation; I just get referrals to physical therapy when I need it. I’m using Agile PT/FIT in Palo Alto right now for my back.
check them out and ask for an ortho referral.
Hello,
I would stay away from the Team Clinic. He is all the San Jose Races. He is a Crook. If you have real issues go to a MD.
Thanks all, that’s exactly the kind of info I’m looking for!
