What a Sports Physical Visit Includes

A sports physical, sometimes called a pre-participation exam, is a service Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center offers to help athletes and active adults meet the requirements set by schools, leagues, or personal training programs. It is a practical, straightforward visit, not a diagnostic workup for a specific concern.

During the appointment, our provider will review general health history, discuss any prior injuries or activity concerns, and complete the paperwork required for participation. Patients are welcome to bring questions about training, past injuries, or how to stay active, and our team can talk through those in general terms during the visit.

  • Review of health and activity history
  • Completion of required participation forms
  • A chance to ask general questions about staying active

If a specific health question comes up during the exam, our provider will talk with you directly about next steps rather than addressing it through paperwork alone. Any specific symptom, injury, or medical concern is always best discussed one-on-one with your provider at the visit.

What to Expect When You Visit

Families coming from Drew, MS often want to know what the visit itself will feel like, not just what forms get filled out. At Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center, sports physicals are handled by providers who work in sports medicine and orthopaedic care every day, so the conversation stays practical and focused on getting an athlete or active adult ready for their activity.

We keep the appointment straightforward: check-in, the exam itself, and time to answer any questions before you leave with the completed paperwork. There is no need to prepare extensively beforehand, though it helps to bring along any forms your school, league, or organization requires.

  • Providers focused specifically on sports medicine and orthopaedic care
  • Straightforward visits built around required paperwork
  • Time set aside to answer questions before you leave

Our goal is to make this a low-stress part of getting ready for a season, not another obstacle in an already busy schedule.
