Our Sports Medicine Services
-
Dr. Lee uses real-time diagnostic ultrasound to visualize joints, tendons, and soft tissue structures before and during injections - ensuring precise placement and better outcomes. Cortisone injections reduce inflammation quickly; PRP injections use your body's own platelets to promote longer-term healing.
Great for those experiencing:
Joint pain and arthritis
Tendinopathy and tendon tears
Bursitis
Rotator cuff injuries
Knee and hip pain
-
PRP therapy concentrates the growth factors in your own blood to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation, without surgery or synthetic medications. Dr. Lee uses PRP to treat a range of musculoskeletal injuries where the body needs a biological boost to heal fully.
Great for those experiencing:
Chronic tendon injuries
Partial ligament tears
Knee and hip osteoarthritis
Muscle strains that are not healing
Post-surgical recovery support
-
PRP gel combines the regenerative properties of platelet-rich plasma with a lubricating agent to reduce friction, restore cushioning, and relieve pain in arthritic or stiff joints. It offers longer-lasting relief than cortisone alone, with the added benefit of stimulating tissue repair.
Great for those experiencing:
Knee pain
Hip pain
Shoulder pain

As an osteopathic physician, Dr. Lee incorporates hands-on manipulation into sports medicine care when appropriate. OMT restores joint mechanics, reduces muscle tension, and supports recovery from injury, often as a complement to injection therapy or a standalone treatment for musculoskeletal pain.
Great for those experiencing:
Post-injury recovery
Back and neck pain
Sports-related muscle tension
Headaches and jaw pain
What to expect
Your first sports medicine visit begins with a thorough evaluation. Dr. Lee will review your history, assess your movement and strength, and use diagnostic ultrasound when appropriate to visualize the injury directly. From there, she develops a personalized treatment plan that may include injections, OMT, exercise and rehabilitation guidance, nutritional support, and return-to-activity planning. Sessions typically run 45-60 minutes.
No referral needed. No insurance required.
