Sport and Exercise Physicians are committed to excellence in the practice of medicine as it applies to all aspects of physical activity. A major focus for Sport and Exercise Physicians is the safe and effective sporting performance at all levels.

The goal of all Sport and Exercise Physicians should be to facilitate all members of the community to enjoy exercise safely to 100 years and beyond, knowing that physical activity provides them the 'best buy' to prevent chronic disease.
