Welcome to Dominican University Sports Medicine
The Philosophy of the DU Sports Medicine is a commitment to student-athlete health care & education, We respect each individual, and believe each individual has a right to professional and comprehensive medical care.
Every student-athlete will receive a thorough evaluation of his/her problems by the DU Sports Medicine Staff. Each student-athlete should have a plan of care, which is coordinated by the DU Sports Medicine Staff and/or team physician. Each student-athlete will be informed about his/her plan of care and be involved in achieving his/her rehabilitation back to his/her sport. Every student- athlete should be encouraged to be responsible for his/her own safety and wellbeing.
Since the success of DU's athletic teams depends on the safety and well-being of its student-athletes, DU's sports medicine staff is dedicated to give the best medical care possible to its student-athletes.
The Sports Medicine Staff is a dedicated group of allied health care professionals working together to provide the best possible health care to the student-athletes at Dominican University. A major emphasis of the Sports Medicine Staff is on the prevention, evaluation procedures, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and student-athlete education and awareness on injuries and medical conditions.
Under the direction of Head Team Physician Dr. Victor Romano and Head Athletic Trainer Ryan Collins, the Dominican University Sports Medicine Team provides services to 11 athletic teams.
The Athletic Training Room is located within the fitness center in the basement of Igini Sports Forum and is available for use for all Dominican University student-athletes and competing athletes from opposing institutions only.
