Dr. Adams believes that staying current in sports medicine is vital, as this is a rapidly growing and complex specialty. He maintains close contact with other sports medicine specialists from across the country and abroad through involvement in the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the American Medical Society for Sports Medicine (AMSSM).

His training and education have included a PhD in chemistry from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, MD from University of Illinois College of Medicine at Urbana-Champaign, residency at UW-Madison, and a sports medicine fellowship through the family practice department at Maine Medical Center. Prior to fellowship, he worked for a year as an E.R. physician.

Patients in Dr. Adams’ practice find that he takes their musculoskeletal and exercise-related problems seriously, recognizing that exercise and sports have important roles in their lives. One of the most important roles is the maintenance of overall health throughout life, and when viewed in this light, any impediment to exercise should be regarded with concern.

Dr. Adams plays the piano, enjoys tennis and cycling, and admits to occasionally baking desserts that aren’t good for you.  Some of his photographs can be seen on the walls of the clinic.
