On-site medical services include, but are not limited to, prevention, recognition, evaluation and treatment of athletic injuries and illnesses, rehabilitation services, nutritional counseling, psychological counseling and drug education/counseling.
Eastern's sports medicine staff has seven certified athletic trainers, one team physician, one general medicine physician, one concussion specialist, and a podiatrist. The team physician uses a comprehensive referral source of other specialty-trained physicians, including orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, physiatrists, cardiologists, endocrinologists, gastroenterologists and mental health personnel. A list of these referral services is kept in the sports medicine office. The sports medicine staff also works in conjunction with the health care staff of the Eastern University Health Center and the Cushing Center for Academic Support (CCAS) to meet all the physical and mental health care needs of its intercollegiate student-athletes.
