Vermont Orthopaedic Clinic - Sports Concussion Clinic

About

The Concussion Clinic was created by the sports medicine specialists at Vermont Orthopaedic Clinic, part of Rutland Regional Medical Center, to evaluate anyone with concussion symptoms. Board-certified physicians diagnose by reviewing the injury history and symptoms, performing a neurological exam of vision, hearing, balance and reflexes, and testing thinking, memory and concentration. Treatment plans cover screen and activity limits, staged return to school with academic accommodations, and a graded return to sport once symptoms resolve; lingering post-concussive cases may add monitored exercise, physical therapy for balance, speech or occupational therapy, and neurology referral. A 24/7 sports injury hotline offers pre-visit advice and expedited appointments.
