You Deliver the Ultimate Member Experience. Who is Caring for Your Team?
Between managing complex court sheets, launching premium padel programs, and retaining high-net-worth members, running a top-tier club is a relentless grind. We provide text-first, data-driven medicine built to keep your elite teaching pros and key club staff operating at peak performance.
Fishtown Medicine partners with Philadelphia-area sports and country clubs to provide text-first, physician-led primary care for elite teaching pros, leadership, and operational staff. We offer two tracks: a proactive longevity-focused plan for leadership and pros, and a primary care foundation for front-line club staff.
Physician Care Built for High-End Club Teams
What Is "On the Court" Reality for Club Staff?
You know the reality behind the pristine country club facade. Your top squash and tennis pros spend eight grueling hours a day feeding balls, running clinics, and pushing through chronic joint pain because the booking sheet is full. The Membership Director is fielding demands from influential members and managing brutal seasonal peaks. When your staff inevitably hits a breaking point and visits a traditional doctor, they get rushed through a 10-minute appointment and handed a generic lecture to "rest and take Advil." That is unhelpful advice when you are running back-to-back golf simulator events, coaching the A-team league, or prepping the entire facility for the club championship. You need a medical partner who understands the physical and mental demands of the luxury fitness space.What Does White-Glove Healthcare Look Like for Club Teams?
Your club members expect anticipatory, white-glove service from you. We believe you and your staff deserve the same standard from your physician. At Fishtown Medicine, we operate with the precision and responsiveness your members expect. We removed the waiting rooms, the insurance runaround, and the delayed callbacks. You get direct text access to Dr. Ash. If a key maintenance team member wakes up sick on the morning of a major tournament, they do not waste hours at a clinic. They text us directly, get an assessment, and receive a treatment plan immediately.What Is the Dual-Track Approach to Club Health?
A premium club requires both high-performing talent and a rock-solid foundation. We offer two distinct tracks to support every tier of your operation.Track 1: The Proactive Advantage (Leadership and Elite Pros)
Designed for Club Directors, Master Trainers, and Head Racquet Pros. Your body and your mind are your most valuable assets. If an elite Head Pro breaks down, the club loses thousands in lesson revenue and member trust. Membership Directors cannot afford brain fog when analyzing churn metrics and capital improvements. We look under the hood using advanced diagnostics to support career longevity:- Cardiovascular and Metabolic Defense: Advanced lipid testing (ApoB) and continuous glucose monitoring to catch silent diseases that force early retirement.
- Performance Optimization: VO2 Max estimation and targeted strategies to protect joint health and maximize cellular energy.
- Unwavering Focus: We keep your physical chassis tuned so you can handle the demands of your most exacting members without burning out.
Track 2: The Primary Care Foundation (Club Staff)
Designed for Front Desk, Floor, and Maintenance Teams.Fishtown Medicine
A 90-minute conversation with Dr. Ash. A written plan you can actually follow.
- Rapid Response: Sick visits handled via text. Your team gets healthy faster without missing critical shifts.
- Chronic Care Management: Easy prescription refills and management for conditions like hypertension, handled without requiring half-days off.
- Value and Loyalty: Showing your staff that you invest in elite care for them translates directly into how they treat your members.
How Does the Process Work?
We integrate cleanly into your seasonal schedules.- The Warm Invitation: We evaluate your club's specific needs, whether it is supporting the racquet pros through winter indoor leagues or prepping the golf staff for spring.
- The Deep Dive: For leadership on the Proactive track, we dedicate 90 minutes to mapping every biological advantage we can use for your performance.
- Digital Access: Your staff joins our secure platform, which connects them to Dr. Ash by text.
