Acute Sports Concussion Clinic: Seeing Patients Aged 6 & Up
With younger children participating in athletics, the risk for concussions in developing brains is of growing concern. UVA Health Orthopedic Center Ivy Road offers multidisciplinary acute sports concussion care. Within 48 hours of referral, our team will reach out and schedule an appointment with these patients, usually within a week. Patients can also self-refer.
To be seen, patients need to fall into our age range (aged 6 years and up), have a recent concussion, and have been injured participating in any kind of athletic activity. This includes organized sports as well as biking and running.
