Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute

WHAT’S NEW

On August 21, 2019, The Miami Dolphins, in partnership with Baptist Health, broke ground on a new $135 million advanced training complex and sports performance clinic. The facility, which will also house a new 30,000-square-foot site for Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute, is being built right next to Hard Rock Stadium. The general public will have access to the facility, where they can see Baptist Health physicians, have outpatient diagnostics run and work with our physical therapists on rehabilitation. Aiming to serve everyone in our community, Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute wanted to have a presence in Miami Gardens and offer access to world-class physicians in this growing area.

FUNDRAISING AT GLANCE

Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute places importance on young athletes, providing preventive care and education, as well as treatment for repetitive motion and other injuries. Through the Youth Athletic Outreach Program, the Institute’s medical team provides physicals and pre-participation screenings for high school athletes in Miami-Dade County, including free EKG screenings at Baptist Medical Plaza diagnostic centers and on-field care for varsity football games. The Miami Dolphins Foundation donated $1.5 million to the pro bono community and outreach program fundraising initiative, allocating $300,000 for five years to help run this program for the Miami-Dade Public Schools. Philanthropy is the foundation for which Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute can offer top-notch access and education to these young athletes.

OVER 3,000 physical exams performed for youth athletes
