Sprains, strains, overuse injuries, and return-to-play care — Dr. Gregory Mayfield has helped Northeast Louisiana athletes recover and compete for 31+ years, and Ruston sits right between both of our offices on I-20.

About 35 minutes east to Monroe or an hour west to Shreveport — both straight down I-20. Pick whichever fits your day and we'll get you in fast.

A former police officer who responded to wrecks on these same roads, Dr. Mayfield has spent 31+ years helping Northeast Louisiana move without pain — and is qualified as an expert witness in motor-vehicle-accident cases.
Sports injuries rarely happen in isolation — a shoulder strain, a hip imbalance, or a spinal misalignment can all set off a chain of compensations. We evaluate the whole athlete, then build a return-to-play plan around your season and schedule.

From Louisiana Tech and Grambling students hunched over laptops, to athletes, to anyone who's taken a hit on I-20 — we see the patterns this part of the state lives with.
Desk strain, "backpack shoulders," and athletic injuries from a college town's worth of bodies in motion.
Ruston sits right on the interstate. We treat whiplash & disc injuries and handle the insurance side.
Oilfield, trades, nursing, long hauls — real jobs that wear on a spine. We work around your shifts.

— Verified patientYes. We regularly treat athletes from Louisiana Tech, Grambling State, Ruston High, and Lincoln Parish rec leagues. The Monroe clinic is about 35 minutes east on I-20, and we keep same-day slots open so a sports injury doesn't bench you any longer than necessary.
Return-to-play depends on the injury. Minor sprains and strains may allow light activity within days, while more significant injuries need a structured rehab plan. Dr. Mayfield provides specific return-to-play guidance and works to get you back to competition as safely and quickly as possible.
