Emily Kraus, MD

I love helping injured young athletes get back to the activities and sports they love, and I enjoy working with players, coaches and trainers to prevent sports injuries before they happen. I work with a multidisciplinary team that includes orthopedic surgeons, athletic trainers, physical therapists and more to provide my patients with seamless, connected care.

I’ve had the good fortune of finding a job that allows me to not just manage sports injuries but truly treat the entire athlete. In sports medicine, it’s essential that we think about every aspect of healing and injury prevention, including nutrition, stress, training and sports psychology. When an athlete walks into my clinic, he or she will be welcomed with a smile, treated with respect and given the most individualized care I can provide. I embrace questions and interactive visits!

I especially enjoy those moments when I see the fire return to the eyes of an athlete who’s recovering from injury. That’s when I know the athlete gets it and is committed to the treatment plan.
