Should there be team doctors?

Dr. Ryan Schreiter, Assistant Professor of Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, co-head Team Physician of Temple Football, Team Physician for Temple Athletics addresses issues related to conflicts of interest (COI) that team physicians face. Why should there be team doctors rather than just having athletes go and see their own physicians for all of their care? How is the physician/patient relationship different when the doctor is the team doctor? How should the team doctor establish the trust of both the team and the athletes? How are COI issues managed and resolved?
