Grand River Hospital District is providing FREE sports physicals for our student athletes again this year.   We are excited to be able to offer this long-standing community service.  We have a limited period of time in which to perform physicals, so we are asking the following requirements:

• Your child MUST have a completely filled out and SIGNED physical form BEFORE they come to the Clinic.  Forms are available from your school’s athletic department.  Your child must wear shorts and athletic shoes. 
• All physicals are done on a first come, first served basis.
