Elite Sports Medicine & Physical Therapy

If you’ve ever been to the Dacula clinic, you’ve met Kim. She’s the bubbly, welcoming, and loving first person you see when you come in the door, and she has a heart of gold.

Yesterday, Kim competed in her first road race since 2020 and ran the Labor Day 5K at Little Mulberry Park. Not only did she run the race as a challenge for herself, but she also ran it in honor of one of our employees who recently had to have knee surgery. She selflessly did the race for her since she won’t be able to run for a while, providing a bit of inspiration and light for her during a frustrating time. She didn’t have to do that, but the love we all have for each other is real and true.

Like we always say, ESM is a family, whether it’s concerning the employees, patients, community supporters, athletes, or anybody in-between. We always encourage, support, and love one another, and that’s not ever going to change. 🤟

There are some clients you just instantly connect with, like Tristan Gabrels. This student athlete came to us over 2 years ago after an injury and never gave up on his dreams. 🏈 He went through some adversity but came through on the other side better, wiser, and STRONGER. Now, he’s made his dream a reality and will be playing football for this fall. We will miss his smiling face and awesome personality, but we definitely wish him the best and know he’s going to do great things!

Drop him a comment below ⬇️ to wish him good luck!

“The capacity to learn is a gift; the ability to learn is a skill; the willingness to learn is a choice.” - Brian Herbert

We choose to get better.
We choose to constantly evolve.
We choose to learn because you chose us.

All of our clinicians attended the Northeast Georgia Physicians Group’s 7th Annual Sports Medicine Symposium last week and grew so much from it. It was a great professional learning experience, as the presenters covered everything from concussions to cutting-edge knee surgeries and rehabilitations. Having our entire group there truly made the difference; these are all individuals who have a passion for helping others and are able to apply what they learned from this conference directly to your recovery plan. That’s the Elite difference. ✨

Always learning… always progressing… always innovating… always improving. 🌟

That’s how we operate at Elite. We constantly reevaluate our procedures and operations so that you get the best version of ourselves every single day you come into the clinic. That’s why we had our annual Leadership Lab seminar to ensure both clinics are working together efficiently and effectively. We’re striving to be the best clinic for your sports medicine and physical therapy needs and hope you feel like you’ve experienced greatness every time you step through the door. After all, YOU are our focus and we won’t ever forget that!

YOU DID IT! 🎄🙌🎅🏻

You all - the best clients around - brought in a whopping 44 presents to the Hamilton Mill/Dacula location and 49 to the Buford clinic, totaling 93 gifts to be given to families in the area. We are so incredibly grateful for your unwavering generosity and know many children’s lives will be changed because of it. ❤️

Thank you. 🙏

The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loudly… wait, that’s not it. 🤔 Let’s try this again: the best way to spread Christmas cheer is donating to so kids have a great year!

ESM is proud to announce that both locations are drop-off points for Toys for Tots! Bins are located in the lobby, and you can drop off an unopened toy until December 20th.

Make sure you donate at your favorite location because, as always, it’s a competition! 🧸🎄🎅

And Elite Sports Medicine’s first round draft pick is… MEL WILLIAMS! 🏆

If Mel looks familiar, it’s because he served Elite as a tech for several years. His passion for helping others transformed into a desire to become a Physical Therapist himself. We are pleased to announce that he passed his boards TODAY and will begin working for us at the Buford office on Monday. Take a moment and comment on or like this post to welcome him back to our clinic… this time as a PT! 🙌

Lake Lanier Islands. ⛵️
Scavenger Hunt. 🔎
Golf Carts. 🚘
Ready… Set… GO! 🚥

These elements put together made for a fun afternoon at our professional development retreat a few weeks ago! Nothing showcases team building quite like a scavenger hunt on the entire property. We were given specific tasks we had to accomplish and items we needed to find during a short period of time, and the green team managed to pull out a win. 🍀🏆🍀

We all definitely had a blast working together and getting closer as an Elite family! 🤙
