The University of Chicago Sports Medicine Department is committed to providing the most efficient and effective services for the prevention, evaluation, management, and rehabilitation of injuries or illnesses to all intercollegiate varsity student-athletes. Guided by our core values of transparency and innovation, we strive to provide cutting-edge care and open communication, ensuring that every patient feels informed and empowered. We aim to create an environment where mental and physical health and performance is promoted. We believe that enjoyment and fulfillment in sports are essential in promoting a healthy balance between performance and well-being. Together, we champion the pursuit of health, excellence, and joy in every athletic endeavor.\ \ Who are athletic trainers?\ Athletic trainers (ATs) are highly qualified, multi-skilled healthcare professionals who render service or treatment, under the direction of or in collaboration with a physician, in accordance with their education, training, and the state's statutes, rules, and regulations. As a part of the health care team, services provided by athletic trainers include primary care, injury and illness prevention, wellness promotion and education, emergent care, examination, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention, and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions. The NATA Code of Ethics states the principles of ethical behavior that should be followed in athletic training.\
