Dr. Lemos, continued from front The role of team physician is integral to the team. Team docs do not just sit on the sidelines at games waiting for players to get hurt, they are involved in scouting, trades, and injury prevention. The doctors work very closely with athletic trainers to ensure that players are performing at their greatest potential. “The athletic trainers have come out with amazing training techniques that are extremely beneficial to the athlete,” Dr. Lemos said. “That, coupled with advanced technology including MRis, allows us to monitor the athlete and provide the best medical care.” and although the sports are different, he cares for all the teams in the same way. “in baseball you may see more injuries from repetitive motions, and in basketball stress injuries from running and jumping are common but they are not exclusive to the sport. a baseball player can injure their foot just as a basketball player can injure their hand,” Dr. Lemos explains. Players are surrounded by people who have a vested interest in their health including managers, agents, parents and teammates. Dr. Lemos maintains that when an injury occurs, doing the right thing for the player is always the right thing to do. “all medical decisions are made on what’s right for the individual player – not necessarily for the team,” he says. Dr. Lemos specializes in arthroscopic techniques in the elbow, shoulder, knee and ankle and is accepting patients with all types of sports injuries. Dr. Lemos sees patients at the DMC Sports Medicine Center – Warren at 28800 Ryan Road. to make an appointment with dr. Lemos, call 586-558-2860.
