Mount Sinai Marks 13th Year as Official Medical Provider at the US Open, Elevating Sports Medicine Through Advanced Onsite Care

New York’s Mount Sinai Health System proudly continues its long-standing partnership as the official hospital and medical services provider for the US Open Tennis Championships, entering its 13th consecutive year in this prestigious role in 2025. From the initial excitement of Fan Week beginning August 18 to the culmination of high-stakes competition on September 7, Mount Sinai’s multidisciplinary team will be on the frontlines, delivering cutting-edge orthopedic, sports medicine, emergency, and radiological care to the world’s elite tennis athletes.

This collaboration also extends to the U.S. teams in the Billie Jean King Cup and Davis Cup, marking Mount Sinai’s 11th year serving as their trusted medical partner. Across these high-performance tournaments, Mount Sinai has consistently integrated clinical excellence with the demands of elite athletic performance, underscoring the seamless fusion of academic medical innovation and real-time sports patient care.

Orthopedics and sports medicine lie at the heart of this partnership, addressing the acute injuries, chronic conditions, and rehabilitation needs inherent in professional tennis. Mount Sinai’s onsite services are staffed by a cadre of renowned specialists, including Professor Alexis Colvin, MD, Chief Medical Officer of the US Open and U.S. Billie Jean King Cup Team Physician. Dr. Colvin’s unique expertise in sports-related musculoskeletal injuries and her pioneering leadership reflect the institution’s commitment to athlete-centered care. She is joined by notable colleagues such as Dr. Melissa Leber, Associate Professor of Orthopedics and Emergency Medicine and Director of Player Medical Services, who brings a sophisticated blend of emergency medicine and sports science to the daily management of player health.

Behind the scenes, the Department of Diagnostic, Molecular, and Interventional Radiology provides state-of-the-art imaging support critical to rapid diagnosis and treatment planning. Utilizing portable, laptop-sized ultrasound machines equipped with specialized musculoskeletal probes, the radiology team, led by Dr. Jhanna Moore, can perform detailed assessments of soft tissue and joint injuries. This diagnostic agility enables immediate triage and tailored clinical decisions in a high-pressure tournament setting, often distinguishing between minor strains manageable onsite and injuries warranting advanced imaging and intervention at The Mount Sinai Hospital.

Mount Sinai’s continuous innovation in medical technology integration is exemplified by its deployment of the LOGIQ e ultrasound system during the US Open. This device’s portability and precision facilitate onsite diagnostic ultrasounds, affording clinicians the ability to perform ultrasound-guided injections, aspirations, and dynamic musculoskeletal evaluations. Such techniques underscore the paradigm shift in sports medicine—from reactive treatment towards proactive management and minimally invasive intervention, aiming to expedite athlete recovery while minimizing downtime.

Emergency medicine specialists at Mount Sinai complement this orthopedic expertise by providing rapid, comprehensive care for acute trauma, ensuring that any sudden injury—ranging from concussions to heat-related illnesses—is met with swift, evidence-based response protocols. Dr. Melissa Leber, a dual board-certified expert in emergency and sports medicine, leverages her extensive experience across professional sports leagues, such as the NBA and NFL, to refine sideline care and injury prevention strategies unique to the biomechanics and competitive stresses of tennis.

The holistic approach further extends into musculoskeletal radiology, acupuncture, dermatology, and podiatry services, all accessible onsite to address the multifactorial nature of athlete health. Mount Sinai also offers an onsite pharmacy and blood draw services to streamline treatment and diagnostics. Mental health support, although provided remotely, integrates psychological resilience and wellness into the broader care continuum, recognizing the intense mental demands placed on professional athletes competing at the highest levels.

Leading orthopedic surgeon and Mount Sinai Professor Leesa M. Galatz, MD, affirms that key improvements in treatment programs each year reflect Mount Sinai’s dedication to marrying clinical research advancements with practical applications. The longitudinal relationship with the USTA allows the hospital to pioneer customized interventions, including regenerative medicine techniques and refined rehabilitation protocols, that reflect the evolving landscape of sports medicine and athletes’ endurance.

Mount Sinai’s involvement also embraces community and fan engagement through interactive onsite experiences, reinforcing the institution’s mission of “Serving All.” Fans can participate in innovative activities such as creating artificial intelligence-driven tennis avatars, bridging technology and sports culture in novel ways. In addition, the hospital facilitates player meet-and-greet sessions and visibility during matches, fostering closer connections between fans and medical experts dedicated to athlete care.

More broadly, this partnership exemplifies how academic medical centers enable elite sports competitions to achieve unprecedented levels of safety, performance optimization, and injury prevention. By integrating research, clinical practice, and technology deployment—backed by a robust team of 20+ faculty members across departments—Mount Sinai ensures that athletes at the US Open have access to comprehensive diagnostics and therapeutics in real time.

Structural innovations in diagnostic imaging, such as seamless remote MRI image reviews and rapid ultrasound diagnostics, position Mount Sinai as a leader in elevating the standard of onsite sports medicine. The collaboration also highlights the critical interface between acute medical care and long-term athlete health, underscoring the importance of multidisciplinary approaches combining surgical expertise, emergency medicine, rehabilitative care, and radiology.

Behind these efforts is a resolute commitment to gender equity and female representation within sports medicine leadership. Dr. Colvin emphasizes the inspirational nature of tennis as a sport where female athletes maintain equal prominence and prize money, which enriches the medical care providers’ mission to support athletes across genders and generations, including young powerful players and mothers competing at elite levels.

As a premier academic health system, Mount Sinai continues to advance health outcomes for athletes by embracing the complexity of musculoskeletal science, precision medicine, and collaborative care models. The institution’s work at the US Open serves as a microcosm of its broader pursuit of medical excellence—improving quality of life through innovative techniques, patient-focused care strategies, and fostering wellbeing through all stages of athletic participation.

With extensive experience managing athlete health through diverse specialties and a commitment to cutting-edge clinical integration, Mount Sinai’s continued role at the 2025 US Open showcases a blueprint for excellence in sports medicine. This partnership not only supports the present generation of tennis champions but also drives forward the science and art of athlete care, setting new benchmarks for comprehensive, rapid-response, and highly specialized treatment environments in professional sports.
