As the first ASES member in West Texas, Dr. Ramsey is pleased to bring that level of specialized experience to patients throughout the Lubbock area.
AOSSM recognizes the critical role of the team physician in caring for athletes at every level of competition. Throughout his career, Dr. Ramsey has treated athletes ranging from weekend warriors and youth competitors to high school, collegiate, and professional athletes. His experience includes serving as a part of the physician team for the Cincinnati Bengals and the University of Arkansas Razorbacks. Closer to home, he has been the team physician for Wayland Baptist University, the Lubbock Matadors, the Levelland Lobos, and cared for numerous other athletes from West Texas schools and athletic programs.
