other problems. And these treatments
are given using non-surgical techniques.

Physicians at Westside Spine and Sports Medicine are specialists in their field. They have the basic medical degree of a doctor after successful completion of studies at a medical school. They again study an additional 4 years and get extra experience in handling real patients. While most physicians just treat the illness, those at Westside Spine and Sports Medicine focus on treating patients to bring back any physical functional loss they encounter after surgery or initial treatment, thereby making sure they live life fully.

We have professionals and well trained specialists in the areas of physiology, biomechanics and anatomy. A practical approach is applied in combination with particular modalities. They are also highly dedicated professionals and well trained in dealing with patients who are experiencing a number of physical problems. Westside Spine and Sports Medicine is aimed to meet the total needs of patients and has the perfect infrastructure to provide excellent physical therapy.

Our physiatrists also work in coordination with other groups of healthcare professionals and work out a specific rehabilitation plan. This group may include massage therapists, physical therapists, and chiropractors. Westside Spine and Sports Medicine New York provides all these treatments at its premises in New York. The secret behind our success is that we follow an interactive team effort and include the patient himself as an integral part of the team.
