What to expect

Our approach.

Sports Medicine at DISC is consultant-led and fully integrated with physiotherapy, chiropractic care, and imaging. We care for professional athletes, recreational players, and post-operative patients, focusing on a comprehensive clinical workup rather than a one-size-fits-all diagnosis. Our team provides conservative, image-guided treatments—including PRP, hyaluronic acid, and corticosteroid injections—as part of a structured rehabilitation plan, not as standalone interventions.

FAQ

Sports Medicine, answered.

Do I need a referral?

No. You can book Sports Medicine directly. A referral may be required by some insurers (flagged in the booking portal).

Will I need imaging on the first visit?

If clinically indicated, ultrasound can be performed in-clinic on the day. X-ray, DEXA and further imaging are available at our DISC Imaging Center next door.

Is PRP or shockwave therapy covered by insurance?

Coverage varies by policy. We run eligibility before any procedure and provide a written quote if self-pay.
