When it comes to medical cannabis use by pregnant Arkansans, healthcare providers often face a difficult reality: There is still much they do not know.

When a chest muscle injury made Arkansas Razorback Football Head Coach Ryan Silverfield a patient of UAMS Health Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, he experienced firsthand the care behind Razorback Athletics.

With fall camp quickly approaching, there was no time to waste. Dr. CarlLee and the orthopaedics team carefully balanced a tight timeline with the demands of a safe, effective recovery — getting Silverfield healthy and back on the field when his team needed him.

The right team makes all the difference. For the Razorbacks and Arkansans alike, UAMS Health is one they can count on.
