Our unique sports medicine fellowship offers a strong educational base with a dedicated clinical staff to learn state-of-the-art evaluation practices and techniques.

Gain Unique Experience in Sports Medicine

Our Sports Medicine Fellowship has a strong educational foundation that prepares fellows for a career in sports medicine. Fellows will primarily train in one of Albany Medical Center's two office sites with access to state-of-the-art techniques and experienced primary care sports medicine faculty. Our program also partners with local sports teams, venues, and events that offer fellows the opportunity to treat a diverse group of patients with varying backgrounds, activity levels, and medical needs.
