San Francisco · Sports Medicine Doctor
Sports medicine doctor in San Francisco.
Fellowship-trained, board-certified sports medicine physicians who treat athletes and active people of all ages — non-surgically wherever that is the right answer.
Sports medicine built around getting you back to activity.
RegenCore is a multidisciplinary group — sports medicine, orthopedic surgery, interventional pain and chiropractic — so every patient is matched to the right specialist and the right treatment, surgical or not. Our San Francisco clinic sees active professionals, athletes and anyone who wants to repair a joint or tendon rather than mask the pain.
Dr. Rowan Paul, a fellowship-trained sports medicine physician, serves as Head Company Physician for the San Francisco Ballet. Dr. Kentaro Onishi is a two-time Olympic physician whose primary clinical and research interest is tendinopathy. Dr. Carri Allen Jones is board-certified in sports medicine and a former team physician for Syracuse University Athletics, and Dr. Ian Barrett is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with specialty training in sports medicine.

Do your sports medicine doctors perform surgery?
Most of our care is non-surgical. Dr. Ian Barrett is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with specialty training in sports medicine, so the group can guide patients honestly across the full spectrum of care and reserve surgery for when it is truly the right answer.
Do you only treat professional athletes?
No. Our physicians treat athletes and active people of all ages, from recreational to professional.
