WHY: Does your child or teenager still need a pre-participation physical screening for his/her school or team try-outs? Beat the final buzzer before school starts. Our UTMB medical experts are volunteering their time in a special community outreach event to support local families, school districts, and athletic programs with extracurricular pre-participation physicals. Students should wear t-shirts and shorts, and bring a signed UTMB consent form and school-specific forms. Walk-ins will be accommodated (as time permits). To reserve a spot or for more information, call 832-505-1020 or email Brittni Stinson at bkstinso@utmb.edu.
