From diagnosis to recovery, the Genesis Sports Medicine and ORA Orthopedics Care Team is focused on you!

Genesis Sports Medicine and ORA Orthopedics partner to provide a comprehensive care team dedicated to providing effective, high-quality health care for any musculoskeletal concern. This team cares for student athletes, weekend warriors, grandparents and everyone in between - to focus on individualized treatments.

Musculoskeletal pain refers to pain in the muscles, bones, ligaments, tendons and nerves. You can feel this pain in just one area of the body, such as your back.

Our physicians, are fellowship trained and board certified to ensure the delivery of the highest level of Sports Medicine care available in the Quad-Cities community. We offer accurate diagnosis and evidence-based treatments to help get you back in the game!

What does it mean to be fellowship trained? Not every doctor in the United States is fellowship trained. Being accepted into a fellowship training program is a privilege reserved for the top doctoral graduates. A physician who chooses this path is committing to extra education and is devoted to providing the best medical care possible. This means that the surgeon or physician has shown the highest level of dedication to that field and achieved the highest level of training, becoming an expert and leader in their field.

Athletes Caring for Athletes

As an athlete, you know performance is everything. Over the years you've trained yourself to push the limits--to always aim for better. But sometimes, you need help. That's where we come in.

We've dealt with injury. We've slowed down only to come back stronger. Our team of physical therapists, athletic trainers, and sports medicine specialists have first-hand knowledge in keeping athletes in the game.
