Early morning walk-in clinic will provide care for acute injuries

MU Health Care’s popular Sports Medicine Injury Clinic at Missouri Orthopaedic Institute in Columbia will now be offered in Jefferson City beginning May 1.

The Sports Medicine Injury Clinic will be open Monday through Friday from 7 to 8 a.m. with no appointment necessary.

“We know sports injuries don’t happen at convenient times, which is why we are so excited to offer an early morning walk-in clinic for you to be able to see a provider and get X-rays, casting/splinting, bracing and therapy all in one location,” said Dr. Jeff Klott, MU Health Care orthopaedic surgeon.

MU Health Care’s Sports Injury clinic will always be staffed by a physician and will offer care for a variety of injuries including:

• Broken bones
• Concussions
• Muscle strains
• Ligament sprains or tears

“Visiting the Sports Medicine Injury Clinic allows you to be seen by a medical provider more quickly, so you can start on a treatment plan as soon as possible,” said Dr. Timothy Galbraith, MU Health Care orthopaedic surgeon.

The new Sports Medicine Injury Clinic is located inside the Missouri Orthopaedic Institute on the second floor of the Madison Street Medical Building, 1125 Madison Street. Walk-in patients will be seen on a first-come, first-served basis.
