A big shout out to 2020 graduate Sarah (Sassy) Weinstein, DO, who recently opened her own Sports Medicine & Lifestyle Medicine clinic called Core Sports Medicine in Princeton, NJ. Sassy’s vision for her practice is to provide a clinic that both educates patients and encourages them to lead healthy lives through exercise, nutrition, reduced stress, better sleep in combination with Sports Medicine and Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment. In addition to opening her own private practice, Sassy also teaches a full body strength class at a local small boutique gym and is the medical director for a local plasma donation center in Princeton. She says, "By setting specific and realistic goals for my patients, I hope to help people live their best life."Learn more about Sassy and her new adventure.
