High school & college athletes

Dr. Vadasdi is team physician for the Premier Lacrosse League and the Women’s Lacrosse League, and provides orthopaedic coverage for Sacred Heart Greenwich. Student athletes get the same approach: a clear diagnosis, a plan the athlete and family understand, and a return to play coordinated with the athletic trainer and coach. We know the season matters, and we plan around it.
