High school
players'
risk of inju-
ry varies in
accordance
to the sport
they play, but the risk is greater
for boys than girls and during
competition rather than practice.
As for the most common type
of injury experienced by young
players, shoulder injuries topped
the list among football players,
followed distantly by wrestlers
and baseball players. Boys were
twice as likely as girls to expe-
rience shoulder injuries, which
were three times more likely to
occur during competition than
practice. Sprains and strains ac-
counted for 39.6% of all shoulder
injuries, followed by dislocations/
separations (23.7%), contusions
(11.5%), and fractures (6.6%).
The most common mechanisms

of injury were player-to-player
contact (57.6%) and contact with
the playing surface (22.8%).
We understand how frustrat-
ing it is to be waylaid by an in-
jury and work hard to help you
heal as rapidly as possible. If you
require physical therapy after a
shoulder injury, ask your physi-
cian for a referral to SHELTON
PHYSICAL THERAPY AND
SPORTS MEDICINE at (360)
426-5903. You'll find us conve-
niently located at 2300 Kati Ct.,
Ste. B. New patients are wel-
come. Same day appointments
are available and most insurance
plans are accepted.
P.S. According to the study
mentioned above, athletes re-
turned to play within a week of a
shoulder injury in 44.8% of cas-
es, but 22.9% of the injuries kept
players on the bench for more
than three weeks. 9~3

Dear Patients, Friends, and Colleagues,
Since starting Mountain View Women's Health Center in December of 1994 and
over the past 15 years, I have served the medical community to the best of my
ability. It has been a great honor and privilege to see the practice flourish and
be able to serve this community. With the unwavering support and sacrifices my
family has made, the generous support of Public Hospital District #1, and the
welcoming nature of the Shelton community, we have been able to build a prac-
tice that has offered caring and compassionate medical care which is second to
none in the Puget Sound. We have served the insured, underinsured and unin-
sured patients of Mason County with the mindset that this was our ministry and
how best to serve the community and God.
So it is with a deep emotional attachment that we announce that our family will
be leaving the community to return to our roots and family in Southern Califor-
nia this summer. We will be transferring ownership of the clinic to Public Hos-
pital District #1 and the medical care in the very capable hands of three out-
standing and caring physicians, Dr. Lystra Celestine, Dr. Nkem Nwosa, and Dr.
Elizabeth Carder. I am confident that the quality and compassion of the medical
care given will continue to remain at the highest of standards and continue to
serve all the people of Mason County.
With gratitude,
-- Jonathan A. Gold
