A winning team relies on winning orthopaedic expertise — and when the Philadelphia Union made history last October, Premier was there to celebrate. As the major league team’s Official Orthoapaedic Providers, Charles (Chip) Hummer, M.D. and James McGlynn, M.D., orthopaedic surgeons and sports medicine experts, cheered from the team bench as a nail-biter game went into extra-time. The Union landed its first-ever playoff victory (4-3) against the New York Red Bulls — not to mention racking up one of the league’s highest scores in a playoff match ever.
This year’s fifth place finish marks the team’s best season yet and expectations are high for 2020.
Just as the Union’s strikers scored a path to victory, Premier has set the bar for orthopaedic care in the Philadelphia region. Our highly trained, forward-thinking and nationally renowned physicians provide compassionate, patient-centered care.
It’s been a tremendous honor for Premier to assist the Philadelphia Union over the past decade. Drs. Hummer and McGlynn have served with the team since its inception, supported by a top group of highly qualified surgeons, sports medicine physicians, physical therapists, physician assistants and other medical providers.
Premier offers the same top-notch care for athletes and families alike. We’ve dedicated ourselves to getting our patients back in the game — on the field, and in everyday life.
