7 Springs Orthopedics

What 7 Springs Orthopedics does

7 Springs Orthopedics is a private, multi-site orthopedic care provider headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, operating a network of 12 walk-in urgent care clinics across Middle Tennessee under the Sport Ortho Urgent Care brand. Founded in 2006, the company treats muscle, bone, and joint conditions — including sports injuries, fractures, age-related wear, and accident-related trauma — through a conservative-care model that prioritizes non-surgical treatment before surgical referral. Clinics are staffed by orthopedic specialists and on-site physical therapists, with most locations equipped for X-ray imaging and supported by MRI, telehealth, personal injury, and workers' compensation service lines covering seven anatomical specialty areas.

The company generated approximately $7.25M across two disclosed venture funding rounds (2018 and 2020) led by Nashville-based Altitude Ventures, which also financed the December 2021 acquisition of Sport Ortho Urgent Care — the platform's principal scaling event. Revenue is derived from patient services billed through Medicare, TennCare, commercial insurance, and transparent self-pay pricing; per-clinic visit volume is not disclosed. Operational technology is limited to the athenahealth patient portal (records, bill pay, scheduling) and a website-based location finder and appointment system. The practice operates as a member of Privia Medical Group, providing referral network access and credentialing infrastructure.

Strategic posture is regional densification plus multi-state roll-up intent. Twelve clinic locations span from Clarksville in the north to Lawrenceburg in the south, with stated plans to expand into other states beyond Tennessee. Recent product surface additions (Foot & Ankle specialty in 2024, telehealth launch, FMLA/disability request workflows) suggest deepening of the existing orthopedic urgent care vertical rather than entry into adjacent clinical verticals. The company maintains a 4.4-star Google rating across 186 reviews under the Sport Ortho brand. Leadership comprises Mark Tulloch (CEO), Stu Jones (Founder), and Tony Corley (CFO).
