Methodist Mansfield Medical Center

Sports Physicals and Echocardiograms

Methodist Mansfield’s physicians and nurses are volunteering their time to help Mansfield ISD, Midlothian ISD, and Grand Prairie ISD athletes get a start on the upcoming sports season.

The hospital is teaming up with athletic district officials to offer sports physicals and echocardiograms.

The sports physicals will be led by Shaun Garff, DO, sports medicine physician, Jeff McDaniel, MD, sports medicine family health physician and Juan Gavalda, MD family health physician on the medical staff at Methodist Mansfield.

Cardiologists Alan Taylor, MD, and Levi Rice, DO, will perform the echocardiograms. An echocardiogram is a test in which ultrasound is used to examine the heart to help detect abnormalities and/or other cardiovascular conditions that may affect student athletes. Parents must accompany their teens during this painless non-invasive test.

Physicals and echocardiograms will take place Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon.
