Developing Young Athletes Network Podcast


Apr 22, 2019

Hello everyone and welcome back to the DYA Network...Network Nation. I am excited to talk with our guest today because he will help us bring more awareness to National Youth Sports Safety Month. As you know from our previous episode, I talked about how the month of April is dedicated to raising awareness of sports injuries in our youth, while also educating parents, coaches and athletes to avoid injuries.

Our guest today has extensive training to help educate us on recognizing and preventing concussions. He is board-certified in internal medicine, pediatrics and sports medicine. He earned his medical degree from Michigan State University and completed his combined residency from Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, Massachusetts. Following his residency, he completed further fellowship training in Sports Medicine. He has had extensive experience in ambulatory and community-based medicine-as an IHA Physician, Associate Program Director of Ambulatory Education for the St. Joseph Internal Medicine Residency Program, Team Physician for Concordia University, Saline and Ypsilanti-Lincoln High Schools.
