As the Kansas City Royals begin their season, fans can be confident the players are in the best possible physical condition, thanks to a team of physicians from The University of Kansas Health System who have spent the entire spring training with them at the Surprise, Arizona camp.

  • Dr. Vincent Key, Royals head physician
