Brown University Health Urgent Care Sports Physicals

Get Ready for the Season with a Sports Physical

As the weather changes, student-athletes across southeastern New England are gearing up for the next sports season. Whether your child is preparing for school athletics or a local league, most organizations require a sports physical—also known as a pre-participation physical examination—to ensure they are healthy and ready to play.

Brown University Health Urgent Care makes it easy for your family to check this requirement off the list. Our experienced team of providers offers thorough sports physicals at our convenient locations across Rhode Island.  No appointment is needed—just walk in at a time that works for you.

Why Sports Physicals Matter

A sports physical helps assess an athlete’s overall health and fitness level to identify any underlying medical conditions that could affect performance or lead to injury. Our providers will:

  •  Review medical history, including past injuries and existing conditions.
  • Perform a physical examination to check heart health, joint function, and overall fitness.
  • Offer guidance on injury prevention and healthy sports participation.
