SPORTS PHYSICALS
The State of Georgia requires all students to have a standard sports physical before participating in high school athletics. We provide these physicals at MedNow for an affordable fee, without an appointment. Bring in your school’s form or download the state’s Pre-participation Evaluation Form, and fill out the appropriate sections before you arrive. We’ll conduct the physical right then and sign the clearance form to get you on the field or court quickly. If you are under the age of 18 and plan to arrive without a parent or guardian, then download the Authorization to Treat form and have your parents or guardian sign it before you come in for the physical.
