Please review the following information regarding the candidate application process.

We ask that the student completes the application and submits that along with the three (3) essays/letters from himself, a parent or blood relative, a coach. Please also include any medical records from past evaluations regarding the current injury. We also would like to request a current photo of the student related to his/her sport with position on team and number worn during team activity.

Once we receive the application, it will be reviewed and voted on by our Medical Board. This process could take up to two weeks. You or the student will then receive a phone call from the SDSMF or someone in our office to confirm the candidate status and inform you of the next step and possible further treatment.

There are no cost(s) associated with the application submission process, consultation appointments, or for x-rays, MRIs, surgery and post-op treatment. Click here to apply for assistance.
