Sports Medicine

Robert Morris University athletes receive medical care provided by the University's training staff and various physicians throughout the Greater Pittsburgh area and the surrounding community.

Colonial athletes receive care in three training rooms, one in the Charles L. Sewall Center, one in Joe Walton Stadium and the other on the Robert Morris University Island Sports Center. Medical care is coordinated by head athletic trainer Addie Muti and assistant athletic trainers Mike Vittorino, Allison Karish and Erin Snatchko. The staff is dedicated to providing all aspects of prevention, evaluation, management and rehabilitation of injuries.

Weekly sports medicine clinics are held by one of the sports medicine physicians. The clinic is staffed by head team physician Dr. Tanya Hagen, professor in family practice and orthopedic surgery at the University of Pittsburgh. Tom McConnell visits the University two times a week to administer rehab. 

Services of the physicians in Moon Township are used in the form of Dr. Rodney Fedorchak (dentistry), Dr. Ed Carnvale (podiatry) and the West Hills Vision Center, under the direction of  Joe Udvari.

On campus, Rose Bruich is the Coordinator of Health Services and a registered nurse. She works closely with the staff to give appropriate care to student-athletes.
