Saturday Sports Injury Clinics Kick Off for Local Student Athletes

Keeping high school athletes healthy and on the field is at the core of what Carilion’s sports medicine team focuses on year-round.

During the fall season, injuries can be more prevalent during Friday night football games. The sports medicine team offers Saturday morning injury clinics as a convenience for parents to get treatment for their child right away instead of waiting for an appointment during the following week.

These walk-in clinics are available in two locations every Saturday beginning Aug. 21 and going through November:

• 2331 Franklin Road, Roanoke: 540-512-1139
• 215 Gilbert St., Blacksburg: 540-961-8061

For more information, patients and their parents can visit CarilionClinic.org/saturdayclinics.
