ROCHESTER, Minn. — Mayo Clinic Orthopedics and Sports Medicine will provide a Saturday morning injury clinic for Rochester-area middle school, high school and college athletes injured during recent sports activities. This includes all athletes from Southeast Minnesota, Western Wisconsin, and Northern Iowa schools.

The clinic will be open each Saturday between Sept. 4 and Oct. 16 from 8 a.m. to noon on the third floor of Dan Abraham Healthy Living Center (DAHLC) at Mayo Clinic in Rochester.
