Concentra Hits a Home Run With Urgent Care Centers

Concentra Inc. launched a new tool in sports injury prevention and sponsored an evening of fun and fitness with the Frisco RoughRiders.

ADDISON, Texas -- Concentra's Urgent Care Medical Centers have teamed with the Frisco RoughRiders to develop a Sports Injury Prevention handbook packed with tips and treatments commonly associated with athletic activities. The handbook draws upon the near 30 years of medical expertise Concentra has been providing as a leader in on-site and urgent care health services.

"At our Urgent Care centers our physicians treat many sports-related injuries each day. The Sports Injury Prevention handbook blends our medical experience with helpful tips for practical use," said Concentra's chief medical officer, W. Tom Fogarty, MD.

Deuce, the RoughRiders' mascot and Frisco's favorite prairie dog, gave away free copies of the handbook to all fans and spectators in attendance at the Dr Pepper Ballpark on Aug. 21, courtesy of Concentra's Urgent Care centers. To receive a complimentary copy, visit a North Texas-area Urgent Care center or log on to http://www.ConcentraUrgentCare.com.

Concentra strives to make health care accessible and affordable by offering a broad range of services that provide quality patient care for work-related injuries, while containing the rising costs of occupational healthcare and workers' compensation. The company operates 320 occupational medical centers in 40 states and also provides urgent care services to fill the gap between primary care physicians and the emergency room.
