Olympic champion Belinda Bencic visited MediRad. Why top athletes don't underestimate diagnostics?

We are incredibly proud that our radiology center MediRad was visited by Swiss tennis player, Olympic champion, and two-time Tokyo Olympic medalist Belinda Bencic.

The visit took place in collaboration with our partner Health & Performance, and the trust placed in us by a world champion is a tremendous recognition of our professional work.

Diagnosis is key to performance and injury prevention

In tennis, shoulder joints, elbows, wrists, and lower limbs are pushed to their limits. This is why timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial in sports. Modern imaging methods (such as musculoskeletal ultrasound) can detect overstrain of tendons, muscles, and ligaments long before they develop into serious injuries. USG allows the physician to monitor the function of soft tissues directly in real-time movement, which is essential for proper rehabilitation and training plan adjustments. Accurate findings provide physiotherapists and coaches with precise data, enabling athletes to return to the court safely and without the risk of reinjury.

World-class care for everyone, from Olympians to recreational runners

We deeply appreciate Belinda Bencic’s trust, but MediRad follows one important rule: “We treat every patient with the same precision and dedication.”

It does not matter whether you are competing for Olympic medals, training for your first half-marathon, playing tennis on weekends with friends, or dealing with shoulder pain during daily activities. State-of-the-art diagnostics, modern facilities in Bratislava’s BBC5, and an experienced team of radiologists are here for everyone who wants to move without pain.

Thank you, Belinda, for the visit, and we wish you much success and health on and off the court!
