Springfield Clinics Offer $20 Walk-In Sports Physicals for Youth
Two HSHS Medical Group clinics in Springfield, Illinois, are providing sports physicals for children and teens at a reduced cost of $20. This initiative is aimed at families preparing for the upcoming school sports season. The physicals are available for individuals aged 18 and under, with no appointment necessary, until September 30. The clinics offering these services are HSHS Medical Group Multispecialty Care, located at 2901 Old Jacksonville Road, and HSHS Medical Group Priority Care on South MacArthur Boulevard. The sports physicals include a review of the child's health history, an orthopedic screening, and an examination of the heart and lungs to assess readiness for athletic participation. Health officials recommend completing these physicals well before the sports season begins to avoid delays.
