Sports Medicine Fellowship Trained
Dr. Andrew Alexander (Dr. Drew) is a native of Charlotte, North Carolina. He attended Johnson C. Smith University, where he graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in Biology. While there, he was a dual-sport athlete, playing quarterback for the football team and setting the school record in the javelin for track and field.
He went on to earn his medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill before completing residency training in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.
He then completed a Sports Medicine fellowship at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, where he worked closely with athletes across all levels of competition. During his fellowship, Dr. Drew provided medical coverage for the Atlanta Falcons (NFL), Atlanta Hawks (NBA), College Park Skyhawks (NBA G-League), Morehouse College, Oglethorpe University, and local high schools throughout the Atlanta area.
Prior to joining OS1, Dr. Drew trained at internationally recognized institutions and brings a high-level, patient-centered approach to non-surgical orthopedics and sports medicine. His clinical interests include ultrasound-guided procedures such as joint and tendon injections, tenotomies, and orthobiologic treatments aimed at promoting healing and restoring function.
In his free time, Dr. Drew enjoys spending time with his wife and children, exploring the Atlanta food scene, lifting weights, watching Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, and playing video games.
A sprain, a fracture, a sports injury. When something goes wrong in Kennesaw, you want it looked at today, not in three days and not after a long ER wait. The OS1 Kennesaw clinic is a walk-in orthopedic clinic with a sports medicine fellowship-trained physician on-site. Walk in, get evaluated, and get your imaging and treatment in one place. No appointment, and no referral needed to be seen. We care for all ages, from kids to adults.
From a rolled ankle to a broken wrist, the Kennesaw clinic treats the full range of non-surgical orthopedic and sports injuries: sprains and strains, fractures and dislocations, tendonitis, joint pain and swelling, sports injuries, and work injuries. When an injury needs a surgeon, we evaluate it, stabilize it, and refer you to the right specialist.
Kennesaw is a full-service location. What you need to diagnose and treat the injury is in the building: open MRI for a detailed look at soft-tissue injuries, digital X-ray, injections including cortisone and PRP, casting and splinting, and bracing and durable medical equipment. Most of it happens during your visit. If you need an MRI, it is scheduled the same day, not weeks out.
For certain joint and tendon problems, such as osteoarthritis or a stubborn tendon injury, OS1 offers platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a non-surgical option. PRP uses a small sample of your own blood, spun down to concentrate the platelets, then injected into the injured area to support the body’s natural healing. The Kennesaw clinic prepares a high-concentration PRP, with a higher platelet count than a standard preparation. If PRP is a fit for your injury, Dr. Alexander will walk you through what to expect.
For most orthopedic injuries, a walk-in clinic beats a hospital emergency room as the first stop. The provider you see treats musculoskeletal injuries all day, the wait is shorter, and you pay a fraction of an ER bill. Because the imaging and treatment tools are on-site, OS1 takes the injury from diagnosis to plan in one place. A true emergency, an open fracture, heavy bleeding, or a head injury, still belongs at the ER, so call 911 or go to the nearest hospital.
No appointment, no referral to chase. Walk into the Kennesaw clinic, check in, and an OS1 provider examines the injury, takes an X-ray if needed, and explains what they see. Anything else the injury calls for, an MRI, an injection, a cast, a brace, is handled in the same visit. You leave knowing what is wrong and what happens next.
