Sports Medicine
At Dartmouth-Hitchcock Sports Medicine, our specialists treat both the "weekend warrior" and full-time athletes. All of the physicians on our team are athletes themselves and can relate directly to sports-related injuries. We have first-hand experience treating some of the most elite athletes in the world:
- Our family practice physician, Dr. Kristine Karlson, a nationally-recognized athlete who competed in the 1992 Olympics, was a team doctor at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.
- We provide sideline medical coverage for athletic programs at Dartmouth College, Hanover High School, Hartford High School, Kimball Union Academy, and Lebanon High School.
