Your career is dictated by your health.


Medical management in professional sports has long been fragmented and heavily influenced by team priorities. The volatility within the industry and continual organizational pressure make it difficult to prioritize athletes’ health.
Athletes now have access to a dedicated medical management agency that collaborates with the team, agents, doctors, and specialists to ensure a unified, strategic plan.

In the end, all athletes want confirmation that their health is being addressed with the highest standard of care.

Jess Elis is a leader who transformed athlete care at the highest level, overseeing medical departments for the iconic New York Knicks, the Portland Trail Blazers, and the globally recognized performance powerhouse, EXOS. Under his leadership, these teams consistently ranked among the league’s healthiest, reflecting his expertise in balancing performance and well-being. As a decision-maker in high-pressure environments, Jess mastered athlete management, advocating for player health and making data-driven decisions. His commitment to ethical care led him to earn a PhD in wearable technology ethics in team sports. Today, Jess empowers athletes with a rare blend of clinical skill, ethical insight, and leadership experience.
