The former team doctor for the Detroit Lions and Chicago bears will return to Michigan as the school’s Chief of Sports Medicine. U-M President Santa Ono made the announcement via his Twitter/X account.
“Asheesh Bedi, MD, will be returning to the University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine as Professor and Chief of Sports Medicine, Executive Director of Sports Medicine,” wrote Ono. “We are so fortunate to bring back one of the worlds experts and sports medicine back home to a community that loves him.”
