Are you facing challenges in your treatment plan?

Orthopedic advancements have significantly reduced recovery times for sports-related injuries like ACL tears, rotator cuff injuries, and ligament sprains. Unfortunately, athletes often don't have access to the most updated technology and procedures.

Outdated Treatment Methods

Without the guidance of a medical agent, athletes often end up with surgeons who use outdated treatment methods.

Out-of-pocket Costs

High deductibles and co-pays lead to unaffordable out-of-pocket costs for surgery and physical therapy.

Limited Insurance Coverage

Insurance providers often limit physical therapy appointments, limiting the athlete’s ability to regain 100% strength.

The Pursuit Foundation

The Pursuit Foundation is dedicated to empowering athletes of all levels by connecting them with world-class orthopedic care and providers. While many programs focus on helping athletes afford the opportunity to play, Pursuit stands apart by ensuring they stay in the game. We provide access to exceptional medical treatment using cutting-edge techniques, enabling athletes to recover faster and get back on the field or court stronger than ever. To further this mission, the Pursuit Foundation proudly partners with OrthoAthlete, delivering unparalleled support and high-quality services to help athletes return to the sports they love.
