The Sports Medicine OrthoPod

Hi, love the pod. Can you do one on Drew Doughty of the LA Kings? What kind of wrist injury takes you out for 5-6 months?

This is a great show for anyone who wants to understand sports injuries, and enjoys sports. I am enjoying this podcast even though I am not a big fan of professional sports. However, I do know the men and women that play professional sports push their bodies to the limit and often have catastrophic injuries. For the average sports fan, that’s all you ever really know. This podcast takes a deep dive into the behind the scenes action of some players that have sustained major injuries and how they were treated for those injuries. This show gives a lot of information that can help the not so medical savvy understand the injury, the mechanism of injury, treatment and rehabilitation. For total nerds like myself who find the science of medicine fascinating, this show is very entertaining. For example, you hear a player broke their leg, or tore their ACL and that’s it, now they’re out for the season. This show breaks down these injuries and then peppers in some really entertaining sports information. The host Anthony Yu is easy to listen to and presents information in an easy to understand format. He develops a topic and conducts a great interview. I will be subscribing and listening for sure. I’m glad I found this show, it’s definitely unique!

As a sports fan I’m always curious what they mean by some of the injuries these players have. This podcast does a great job of explaining these injuries and their treatment to people with no medical background

I’m hooked! As a long time sports fan, who often is injured myself, these podcasts are extremely informative about exactly what is going on with these types of injuries and you can’t get these in depth discussion from your fantasy injury updates! Keep it up guys. Loving every minute of them!
