Fairfax Health Center’s access to care, continuity of care, and patient satisfaction outcomes consistently rank at the top of the National Capital Region (in military medicine). Sports Medicine Physicians across the Country are struggling with the volume of daily episodes of care required by their employers to help make the “revenue model” work for their organizations.
