Dr. Owens appeared on GoLocalProv LIVE “Smart Health” to offer advice to athletes during Covid19.

“These are unprecedented times and you know sports certainly has taken a back burner at every level — of course, the professional athletes get the most attention but college sports has been a huge hit,” said Owens. “For injured athletes, it does make things a little bit easier in my office. When I’m working with athletes that are recovering from knee or should surgery, there’s very much always that sense of fear of missing out — and that’s not there,” said Owens. “But there’s certainly a lot of missing out to go around.  Athletes want to be able to be back in full performance and I think potentially using this time to really refocus their rehab efforts is helpful, but for all athletes, it’s extremely frustrating.”
