Our Doctors
Care and Treatment of Runner's Injuries
Expertise
For the past 18 years, Dr. Fredericson has been the team doctor for the Stanford track & field teams, a national team physician with USA Track & Field, and on the Scientific Advisory Board for Runner's World Magazine. He has been at the forefront of studying overuse injuries in runners and has published over 75 scientific articles, 15 book chapters, and one book related to these efforts.
A thorough evaluation is performed on all athletes to determine the exact diagnosis, treatment plan, and correction of any biomechanical and training errors that will allow a return to regular pain-free running. 3-D gait analysis can be arranged at our Human Performance Lab, when indicated, for more complex cases.
