Hey All!
The question has been asked in a few other forums but now that we have a dedicated forum, I'll post a similar question.
I will be starting a primary care sports med program this July. I didn't have a huge amount of interaction with non ortho sports guys in med school or residency. It seems like all I spoke to (prior to applying and during application/interview trail) either go on to work for an ortho group, stay academic or maintain their primary specialty but do sports medicine on the side. I've talked to a few people that worked for sports teams primarily or university clinics. Galactus also mentioned someone being a WWE ringside physician in an older posting, which is a pretty unique use of the specialty.
I'm curious to hear what other jobs (if any) people have heard of sports med graduates going on to do. I've checked the AMSSM jobs posting but they don't seem to post too much.
