Flagstaff Bone & Joint Raises $1,400 for Local Schools With Proceeds From Sports Physicals
Flagstaff Bone & Joint recently raised $1,400 for the athletic departments of local schools during their annual sports physical event held on Saturday, June 1, at their Flagstaff office, located at 77 West Forest Ave., Suite 301, from 8 to 11 a.m. The practice’s licensed healthcare professional performed 140 sports physicals for local student-athletes.
The specialized bone, joint and muscle providers at Flagstaff Bone & Joint provided expert, low-cost pre-participation physicals for student-athletes at $10 each.
