“I started SportSlip because the standard sports physical hasn't evolved in 40 years— a rushed exam that skips cardiac history and never really looks at the heart. This is the version I'd want for my own kid.”

How it works

Three steps done from the couch

01

Step 01 · ~5 min

Tell us about your child

Enter your child's name, sport, and school or camp, and answer the cardiac safety questions. If anything raises a concern, we'll tell you — before you pay.

02

Step 02 · ~15–20 min

Complete the full screening

Walk through a physician-designed intake covering cardiac history, medical history, orthopedic health, vitals, and general wellness. Upload a vaccination card, your camp or school's form, and a brief movement video.

Step 03 · 24 hr

Receive your clearance letter

A board-certified physician reviews every submission — not an algorithm. Most families receive their signed PDF clearance within 24 hours on business days.

The Screening

The 90-second sports physical skips things. Ours can't.

Every athlete answers every AHA-recommended heart question — it's built into the system, not left to a rushed exam. SportSlip's intake instruments the AHA's full 14-element preparticipation cardiovascular evaluation, the same clinical standard sports medicine physicians use nationwide. Nothing is templated. Everything is reviewed by a licensed physician who has read the full record.

Three things to know

Built for the way parents actually use this

A sports clearance form being completed by hand

Your form. Filled out.

Most services hand you a generic letter and call it done. We complete the actual form your camp, school, or coach gave you — filled out and signed by hand.

The form you were handed
A board-certified physician reviewing an intake at a laptop

A real doctor. Every time.

One board-certified physician — Dr. Kawalek — personally reviews every kid. No AI signatures, no rotating clinicians. The same doctor your form will list.

FAQs

Questions parents ask

We answer plainly. If something here doesn't cover your situation, send us a photo of the form — we'll tell you whether we can sign it before you pay.

Ask us anything
What is SportSlip?
SportSlip is a telehealth service that provides physician-reviewed sports and camp physical clearances. You complete a health screening, record a short video of your child, upload the form your camp or school handed you, and a board-certified physician fills it out and signs it — all from your phone.
Is this a real doctor or AI?
Every clearance is personally reviewed and signed by Dr. Adam Z. Kawalek, MD — a board-certified internal medicine physician (NPI 1326223306). Not an algorithm, not a template, not a rotating panel.
How is this different from a quick physical at urgent care or a pharmacy clinic?
Completeness, mostly. Rushed in-person physicals routinely compress or skip parts of the recommended health history — published audits have shown many states' screening forms don't even include every AHA-recommended cardiac question. Our intake is built so skipping is impossible: every athlete answers every AHA heart-screening question, dangerous answers automatically stop the process before payment, and a physician reviews the complete record — plus a movement video — before signing. See the How We Screen page for the full protocol with citations.
Is an online sports physical legitimate?
Yes. SportSlip is an asynchronous telehealth preparticipation evaluation — a recognized form of medical care — performed under the license of a board-certified physician in the 29 states where he holds one. The clearance is signed with his medical license number and NPI, printed on your school or camp's own form, and every document we issue can be independently verified. It is not a form-signing service: screenings that surface real concerns get a referral and a refund, not a signature.
Will my camp or school accept this?
In almost every case, yes — we complete the actual form they handed you, not a substitute, and staff can verify any clearance in seconds via its QR code. Dr. Kawalek is licensed in 29 U.S. states (see the About page for the full list). If your camp or school has questions or hesitates, contact us and we'll communicate with them directly — verifying the clearance, answering their questions, and correcting the form at no charge if something needs to change.
How can my school, camp, or league verify the clearance is real?
Every clearance PDF carries a QR code. Scanning it (or visiting sportslip.co/verify) shows the clearance's live status straight from our records — valid, expired, or revoked — along with the athlete's sport and the expiry date. A forged or altered PDF fails verification, which is protection most paper physicals simply don't have.
How long does it take?
Standard turnaround is under 24 hours from submission. A same-day rush option is available at checkout.
How much does it cost?
$59 flat for the standard clearance — no insurance, no copay. One clearance is valid for 12 months and covers every sport and every season.
Is an ECG included?
A full ECG isn't part of the standard screen — it requires equipment we can't ship. We apply the AHA 14-element cardiac history, the standard screening recommendation. If anything in the history is flagged, we refer to a cardiologist before clearing.
What if you find something concerning?
If Dr. Kawalek sees anything that warrants follow-up, he'll explain it plainly, give you a written referral to your pediatrician or a cardiologist, and refund the visit. No clearance is signed without confidence.
Is SportSlip HIPAA-compliant?
Yes — a full HIPAA-compliant telehealth framework with professional liability insurance. Your information is encrypted and never sold.
