“Rothman Orthopaedics and the Philadelphia Phillies have a longstanding, successful partnership that has spanned over three decades,” said Alexander R. Vaccaro, MD, PhD, MBA, President of Rothman Orthopaedics and the Richard H. Rothman Professor and Chairman of the Department of Orthopaedics at Thomas Jefferson University and Hospitals. “We are thrilled to continue this relationship with one of the most storied franchises in Major League Baseball.”
“I am honored to lead the Phillies’ medical team as Head Team Physician and to continue the tradition of excellence in orthopedic care that Rothman Orthopaedics has provided for decades,” said Dr. Cohen. “Our top priority is ensuring that the players receive the highest level of treatment, injury prevention strategies, and rehabilitation support to keep them performing at their best throughout the season. I look forward to working closely with the team to maintain their health and longevity on and off the field.”
As part of this long-standing relationship, Michael Ciccotti, MD, Chief of Sports Medicine Surgery at Rothman Orthopaedics and the Everett J. and Marian Gordon Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at Thomas Jefferson University, led the Phillies’ medical team for three decades before retiring from his role last spring. Now serving in a consultancy position, he continues to provide his expertise to the organization. Through this continued collaboration, the Phillies will have access to cutting-edge orthopedic advancements, injury prevention strategies, and rehabilitation programs designed to keep athletes performing at their peak.
“Rothman Orthopaedics is simply the best at what they do and play a very important part in the success and well-being of our players,” said Phillies Chief Revenue Officer Jackie Cuddeback. “The team behind the team, Rothman Orthopaedics is a tremendous partner both on and off the field. We look forward to continuing our longtime relationship during this exciting time in Phillies baseball.”
As part of the renewed agreement, the partnership will include a PhanaVision feature, TV and digital assets, on-site event activations and in-game branding such as outfield wall signage. Rothman Orthopaedics will also maintain its designation as the Official Orthopedic Partner of the Phillies, further strengthening its presence in the Philadelphia sports community.
