THEE PREGAME SHOW - Coach Prime Tours The Football Medical Center At CU - And He Loves It
Coach Prime nor any of his staff or players will have far to travel for what are traditional “off campus” medical needs - because the #ColoradoUniversity medical center is in the same building as Football Operations - Coach Prime recently toured and Thee Pregame Show was there for it.
PATIENT TESTIMONIALS
Professional Soccer Player for the Orlando Pride Organization
I played all four years of my college career at the University of Colorado Boulder where Dr. McCarty was our team surgeon. - Taylor Korieck, professional soccer player for the Orlando Pride
Dr McCarty just performed a third surgery on me 10 days ago.
He did my L rotator cuff and L meniscus in the past, R rotator cuff last week. You simply couldn’t find a better surgeon with a better reputation.
I had the most wonderful experience with Dr. McCarty and his staff.
I got the same expert care that professional athletes get, and today I am back running and cycling after a very successful surgery.
