"Support Staff Plays Big Role In US Fed Cup Team Success" - Nina Pantic
Traveling to Minsk with the U.S. Fed Cup team comes with a lot more baggage than one free checked piece of luggage and a carry-on. Alexis Colvin, MD, associate professor of sports medicine and orthopaedics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and chief medical officer for the United States Tennis Association, is ready for anything this weekend thanks to plenty of preparation. “There’s a lot of advance planning especially when you go somewhere outside the U.S.,” said Dr. Colvin. “It’s coming up with your emergency plan and where you would get different tests. The other thing that we plan for is supplies that we have to bring. You have to anticipate almost every single possibility that could happen from strains to the flu or an upset stomach – any and all possible things.”
