Jefferson has a history of excellence in Sports Medicine. First recognized as a distinct subspecialty by the ACGME in 1993, Sports Medicine fellowship training and board certification is available to diplomats from Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. The Board Certification Exam is administered by the American Board of Family Medicine.  The Department of Family and Community Medicine has hosted an ACGME-accredited fellowship in Sports Medicine since 1996. Jefferson Sports Medicine was the inaugural program in the region.  Our graduates have gone on to start and fill leadership roles in many of the fellowships in the area. In addition to this outstanding fellowship program, our Sports Medicine team offers highly sought-after medical student and residency electives.

Our team provides a unique service to Jefferson patients. Our sports medicine physicians work closely with their counterparts and the surgeons at the Rothman Institute, and facilitate appropriate referrals seamlessly for patients. At the same time, our JUP sports medicine practice is able to provide comprehensive services to athletes and those seeking a healthier lifestyle. In addition to musculoskeletal care, they offer individualized nutrition, exercise and training recommendations and are adept at supporting patients to manage their chronic conditions, such as asthma and diabetes, who wish to increase physical activity or maintain high performance athletic participation

The ideal candidate will have experience in an academic medical center with a rank of Assistant Professor or above.
