The sports medicine world is shifting. Athletes at every level are no longer satisfied with temporary fixes. As expectations rise and traditional models fall short, a new generation of providers is stepping in with purpose and precision. At Alpha Sports Performance Medicine, we’re proud to be part of that transformation and are driven not just by outcomes but by the desire to deliver care that’s complete, connected, and truly impactful.
We believe the future of athlete care belongs to integrated support teams. That’s why Alpha Sports brings together six core provider disciplines under one roof. No handoffs or mixed messages; just clear, collaborative care. Every provider works side by side and is guided by a shared mission to serve and support each athlete as a whole person. The result is a consistent, purpose-built experience designed to meet the needs of anyone from weekend warriors to elite competitors.
At the center of it all is our proprietary Resiliency Training Model, a system developed to build more than strength. Our approach trains the body and mind to move with intention, recover with clarity, and perform with longevity. It helps us build durability, prevent breakdown, and assist athletes in moving forward with confidence. Our clinics are designed to be performance hubs that cultivate lasting resilience.
We’ve built an athlete care franchise system that meets the moment. Our model is intentionally designed to scale with demand, adapt to local needs, and stay ahead of emerging trends. As we grow, we continue to evolve by adding new services, expanding our provider network, and deepening our impact within each community we serve. We’re focused on building connected, mission-driven teams that reflect the heart of Alpha Sports.
Every franchise owner is part of our family. From day one, we offer hands-on training, operational guidance, and access to proven systems that support both clinical excellence and sustainable growth. Our mentorship-based approach gives owners the tools to lead confidently while remaining rooted in a culture that values collaboration, faith, and people-first leadership. When one of us grows, we all grow.
Looking ahead, our vision is clear. Alpha Sports Performance Medicine is expanding into new cities, building networks of care that are as strong and flexible as the athletes we serve. We’re working to shape the future of sports medicine by building vibrant, resilient communities, one clinic at a time.
Dr. Ben Bumguardner’s journey into sports medicine began with an injury that sidelined his high school athletic career. The experience opened his eyes not just to the gaps in care but to the potential of a more integrated approach. When one provider finally took a broader view of his recovery, it changed everything. From that point on, Dr. Ben knew he wanted to build something better.
That same drive and vision also led Dr. Ben to serve on the national stage and to work with Team USA’s track and field and bobsled teams, as well as individual athletes competing at the highest levels. His hands-on experience with elite competitors and a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach led him to shape Alpha Sports operating model and helps ensure that every athlete, from youth sports to Olympic hopefuls, receives care built on performance, collaboration, and trust.
While many providers focus on treatment, Dr. Ben focuses on care systems. He knows that no single discipline could fully support an athlete’s performance or recovery and that too often, athletes are left piecing together care on their own. With the support of his family and a deep personal drive, he launched Alpha Sports Performance Medicine to bring providers together under one roof and re-imagine what coordinated sports care could look like.
Dr. Ben is driven by his early experience and a commitment to giving others the opportunities he had, and he has designed Alpha Sports to go beyond treatment. It’s a place for growth for both athletes and practitioners, supported by a vision that now fuels a growing network of clinics grounded in teamwork, purpose, and care that goes deeper than any single discipline.
