A sports injury can affect much more than a young athlete’s body. In this episode, Stephanie Pearce, MD, explores the emotional side of being sidelined, including the grief, frustration and loss of identity that can follow an injury. Dr. Pearce is a former Director of Sports Medicine at Nemours Children’s Health and a team physician for the U.S. Olympic Ski and Snowboarding Team. She shares how families, coaches and care teams can support young athletes through recovery, build resilience and help them return to the sports they love.Watch the episode on YouTube.Featuring:Stephanie Pearce, MD, former Director of Sports Medicine, Orthopedic Surgery & Sports Medicine, Nemours Children’s Health, team physician, U.S. Olympic Ski and Snowboarding TeamHost/Producer: Carol VassarViews expressed by guests do not necessarily reflect the views of the host or management.
