Ken Mautner, MD

Professor
Emory Sports Medicine

Dr. Mautner is a sports medicine physician and professor in the Departments of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Orthopedics at Emory University in Atlanta. He currently serves as director of Primary Care Sports Medicine at Emory. He completed his PM&R residency at Emory in 2003, followed by a fellowship in Sports Medicine at the American Sports Medicine Institute in Birmingham, Alabama. Dr. Mautner has played a leading role in shaping national PM&R sports medicine education. He was actively involved in developing the first ACGME Milestones for Sports Medicine, helped co-author national MSK curriculum guidelines, and served on the Program Planning Committee for AAPM&R’s Annual Assembly for several years. He also served on the PASSOR Medical Education Committee until its integration into AAPM&R in 2009.

His clinical focus includes the management of acute and chronic sports injuries, diagnostic and interventional musculoskeletal ultrasound, and orthobiologic procedures. Dr. Mautner has published extensively on these topics and is a national thought leader in the use and responsible integration of orthobiologics in sports medicine.

Dr. Mautner has served as the head team physician for the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks for over a decade and currently holds team physician roles with the Atlanta Braves, Emory University, and Georgia Tech Athletics. He also serves as the independent neurological consultant (INC) for the Atlanta Falcons. Over the course of his career, he has taught and mentored more than 120 PM&R residents and over 30 sports medicine fellows—many of whom have gone on to leadership roles in academic and clinical sports medicine. He remains deeply committed to advancing the field through education, research, and clinical excellence, while staying grounded in the core principles of physiatry and the enduring legacy of PASSOR.
