Educational Requirements

"A sports doctor is a fully qualified medical doctor who has chosen to focus on sports medicine. That means in order to become a sports doctor, you have to do the same requisite training any doctor has to go through before you can practice. You will need a bachelor's degree in science, if not a pre-med degree, followed by medical school and residency. The residency level is where sports doctors typically begin to distinguish themselves, but you can start honing your focus as early as pre-med with proper guidance and a clear understanding of what elective courses will best serve your career goals."
