For more than two decades, Keith Hechtman, M.D., [1]from Doctors Hospital Center for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine [2], has been helping student-athletes at FIU stay on top of their game. As the head team physician for the Florida International University Golden Panthers, he is responsible for getting players “back in the game” both safely and responsibly.
He relies on a team approach to handle game day, depending on an experienced training staff both in the locker room and on the sidelines.
The Baptist Health South Florida News Team got a chance to follow Dr. Hechtman during a recent football game at FIU Stadium. Watch it now!
