Dr. Ali Motamedi, Orthopedic Specialist and Sports Medicine Physician of Richmond Bone & Joint Clinic, Receives his Board Certification in Sports Medicine
One of Richmond Bone and Joint Clinic’s recent Sports Medicine physician additions, Dr. Ali Motamedi has obtained his Subspecialty Certification in Sports Medicine. Dr. Motamedi who joined the practice in October of 2009 came to RBJC by way of California. He was the team physician for the UCLA baseball and men’s volleyball teams and an associate professor at UCLA.
Dr. Motamedi joins a select few in the Houston area who have been awarded with the Subspecialty Certification in Sports Medicine. In order to receive the certification applicants must complete within a 12 month period, 115 surgical cases. At least 75 of the cases must involve arthroscopy as part of the procedure and ten additional cases need to be completed that were treated non-operatively. After the requirements have been met applicants must also pass an examination administered by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery.
“Because of this extensive certification, I have been able to study many other disciplines other than orthopedics. This allows me to treat the athletes more completely and not just only a specific orthopedic issue,” said Motamedi.
Dr. Motamedi is currently seeing patients at the Richmond Clinic, 1517 Thompson Road and Sugar Land Clinic, 15035 Southwest Freeway and is looking forward to the busy sports season ahead, Texas High School Football.
