Mayo Clinic Health System to Offer Sports Screenings in Southern Minnesota
The Mayo Clinic Health System will offer sports screenings across southern Minnesota for the 2023-2024 school year; costing 20 dollars. Student athletes should wear gym shorts and t shirt, bring school identification, have a completed m-s-h-s-l form, and a parent or guardian accompany them if under 18.
Focus on Athletes’ Health
“We look for things like heart conditions and lung conditions that could affect participation in sports. We look at the musculoskeletal system as well for range of motion strength, areas of pain that can kind of creep up on us as we’re participating and cause further issues,” said Co-Director of Sports Medicine, Wade Johnson.
Scheduling Sport Screenings
Sport screenings will be held in Mankato, New Prague, St. James and Waseca; you can schedule an appointment through the patient portal or the Mayo Clinic app.
