Each Patient Is Unique
At East Coast Spine, Joint and Sports Medicine, we believe each patient is unique and we tailor all treatment programs to the individual.
Our time is dedicated to gaining a full understanding of the unique health issues affecting each patient. We also encourage patients to participate in their care. We are always happy to review the latest research or discuss information from the internet or other sources.
By promoting communication with our patients, we believe that we become better doctors and therapists with each patient visit.
About Us
East Coast Spine, Joint and Sports Medicine is a new medical practice in Hoboken, dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of painful and debilitating conditions of the spine, joints and muscles. Our goal is to alleviate pain and restore strength, motion and flexibility. Our team of health professionals is directed by a medical doctor specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation.
We focus primarily on non-surgical treatment options. These may include physical therapy, therapeutic injections of the spine, joints or muscles, medication or chiropractic care. We also prescribe diagnostic imaging and testing when necessary, such as x-ray, CT scans, MRIs and electrodiagnostic testing.
We treat patients with many different types of painful conditions. Here are some examples:
- A 30-year-old golfer who suffers from elbow pain every time he swings a driver.
- A retired teacher who can no longer walk to his favorite restaurant because of his worsening knee pain.
- A 28-year-old woman who experienced the sudden onset of low back pain with shooting pain down the leg after lifting her child.
- A lawyer with numbness and tingling in her right hand for the past two years.
- A 52-year-old artist suffering with neck pain and stiffness that worsens when he is working.
- A college athlete with shoulder pain every time he lifts weights.
