MTBJ Covers Local High School Football Games

Mid-Tennessee Bone and Joint Clinic is proud to continue partnering with middle Tennessee high schools to provide top-notch sideline care for your favorite football teams. For nearly 50 years, MTBJ has been the standard in orthopedic excellence regarding sports medicine treatment for local athletes. With three new physicians (Drs Pharr, Loftis, Strickland) recently added to the team, they provide an extensive amount of team coverage with a sideline presence totaling over 40 football games during the 2022 regular season. 

MTBJ understands the importance of athletes returning to sport in a timely fashion and prioritizes urgency in diagnosis and treatment. With x-ray, MRI, and physical therapy all at one location, they have the unique ability to provide a full comprehensive workup and treatment plan with expediency. In addition, no appointment is necessary with the OrthoQuick walk-in service available Monday through Friday and an additional Saturday clinic open throughout the TSSAA football season. 

“The Maury Regional Athletic Trainers enjoy the support of the MTBJ doctors. Their experience and expertise are very nice to have on the sidelines to help keep our student athletes safe.” – David Hightower, Spring Hill High School

“Being a small school, we often have to share an ambulance with the other schools in the county. Having both Dr. Adams and Dr. Loftis on the sidelines with us always put me at ease. We cannot thank them enough for helping to cover our games.” – Oakey Gaskill, Forrest High School

The physicians at MTBJ did a fantastic job serving our student athletes during the course of this past season.” – Shelby Waddell, Cornersville High School

“CA Athletics feels very blessed to have Dr. Cason Shirley on the sidelines supporting our varsity football program. Dr. Shirley is a phenomenal team doctor. He is professional, caring, knowledgeable and a team player. Dr. Shirley is selfless and sacrifices a lot of time to help our students, coaches and staff. We all love and appreciate his willingness to help CA Athletics.” – Pernell Knox, Columbia Academy
