About Karl Koivisto

About The Provider

I am a board-certified sports medicine physician, specializing in non-surgical treatments. I believe that staying active and mobile is fundamental to a good life. Mobility enables us to participate in the activities we enjoy, perform our jobs and manage essential daily tasks. Whether it’s an elite athlete recovering from an injury, a grandparent trying to manage knee pain to attend a grandchild’s wedding, or a mechanic unable to work due to shoulder pain, my goal is to restore mobility and help patients return to the activities they love and rely on. My clinical interests include platelet rich plasma (PRP) for use in tendinopathy and arthritis, percutaneous tenotomy for tendinopathy, genicular nerve radiofrequency ablations for knee arthritis, exertional compartment syndrome, and ultrasound-guided procedures.
