Welcome to the Sport Concussion Program

1940 Tice Valley Blvd. Suite C. Walnut Creek. CA. 94595. (925) 988-0569

Since 2006 the Sport Concussion Program has provided pre-injury baseline testing and post-injury care and management to hundreds of athletes in the Bay Area. You may have noticed over the last couple of years that concussion in sports has become a hot topic of concern for doctors, athletes, parents and coaches. I have seen first hand the negative consequences that arise when these injuries are mismanaged. The mission of this program is to provide comprehensive concussion injury management through education, neuropsychological evaluation, academic support and return to play consultation.  Through proper treatment and management of concussion injuries, we can signifantly reduce recovery time and minimize risk for post injury complications.  The goal of our treatment is to ensure that when an athlete is returned to play, we are returning them safe, healthy and ready!

ImPACT Concussion Management

Dr. Freitag proudly uses ImPACT concussion testing software as an important tool in his management of concussion injuries. ImPACT (Immediate Post Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Test) is a computer based program that evaluates brain function through computerized cognitive testing.  This program is used to assist in determining the severity of the injury and monitor recovery.  ImPACT is utilized by all NFL teams and other elite professional, amateur, and academic instiutions.  For more information about ImPACT, click HERE to be taken to their website.
