Katie Nanos

Dr. Katie Nanos graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from McMaster University and received her Doctor of Medicine from St. George’s University. She completed her Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency Training at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, after which she completed her fellowship in Sports Medicine at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.

Dr. Nanos has experience working with patients from a variety of activity backgrounds; from “weekend warriors” to professional athletes (NFL, MLB, NBA), to non-athletes. She has a special interest in working with patients experiencing pain due to overuse injuries including tendinopathies and osteoarthritis. She also commonly treats adhesive capsulitis, or “frozen shoulder” with specialized techniques.

Dr. Nanos was trained in musculoskeletal ultrasound/ultrasound guided injections and orthobiologics (PRP, etc.) by international leaders and pioneers in these fields. In addition, she has participated in related courses through AIUM, AAPMR and AMSSM. These concepts, techniques, and their applications are now the focus of her practice, used in an effort to assist the body in harnessing its natural resources to combat pain, improve function, accelerate healing, and avoid/postpone surgery in the appropriate patient. She commonly uses Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), hyaluronic acid, nStride, and corticosteroid injections as indicated to achieve these goals. All of these procedures are done under ultrasound guidance to ensure accuracy and improve outcomes. Dr. Nanos also commonly uses ultrasound as an extension of her physical examination to aid in formulating a diagnosis at the bedside.
