ABOUT US

---

Hello and welcome! I’m Dr. Chibuzo “Casey” Ohanaja, MD, MPH, DABFM — a board-certified family medicine physician with advanced fellowship training in primary care sports medicine. I’m the founder of Chiron Sports Performance and a dedicated advocate for advancing health, performance, and longevity through innovative, evidence-based care.

My journey into medicine began with a Master of Public Health degree, which gave me a strong foundation in preventive care, population health, and health system design. I later earned my medical degree from St. George’s University, where I developed a deep commitment to community service and hands-on clinical care.

I completed my residency in Family Medicine at the Detroit Medical Center, where I discovered my passion for musculoskeletal medicine and sports injury management. That passion led me to pursue a Primary Care Sports Medicine Fellowship at Allegheny Health Network (AHN), where I worked with athletes at all levels — from Division I college teams to local high schools — in both clinic and sideline settings.

My academic background also includes an undergraduate degree from the University of Notre Dame in Political Science and Middle Eastern/Arabic Studies. This diverse training sharpened my critical thinking and broadened my worldview — tools I bring into every patient encounter.

In addition to my medical credentials, I hold a Functional Movement Systems (FMS) specialist certification and an NBA Level Player Development certification. I’ve had the unique honor of earning a recommendation from a former NBA team Director of Player Development — a testament to my commitment to high-level athlete support and performance.

At Chiron, my clinical interests include injury risk reduction, return-to-play protocols, performance optimization, metabolic health, and ultrasound scans. I am especially passionate about delivering personalized, actionable care to athletes, public safety professionals, and active individuals of all ages.

I believe in truly listening to my patients — not just treating injuries, but understanding their stories, their goals, and their unique paths to health. Whether I’m on the sidelines, in the clinic, or consulting with a team, I approach every case with empathy, precision, and a deep drive to help people perform — and live — at their highest potential.

Outside of medicine, I’m a proud new father, and I cherish time with my wife, our newborn, and our dogs. Whether we’re out hiking as a family or simply enjoying a quiet moment together, those experiences ground and inspire me. I also love traveling and exploring new places — experiences that continually expand my perspective and enrich how I connect with my patients. Staying active, engaging in fitness, and continually learning are all key parts of who I am, both personally and professionally.

Let’s elevate what’s possible — together — in sports medicine, performance, and total well-being.
