Care Philosophy: Dr. Gerard Varlotta is a leading NYC Pain Management and Sports Medicine Specialist in New York City. He is currently accepting new patients. Please call for an appointme

Care Philosophy: I believes that the fundamental principle of rehabilitation medicine is to improve quality of life by enhancing function to help children realize their full potential. Pediatric rehabilitation medicine requires an astute application of that philosophy in order to recognize the unique challenges children face as they age. I utilizes an interdisciplinary team-based approach to prioritize the needs of the child and family, often including physical, occupational, and speech therapists, orthotists/prosthetists, and social workers. My areas of interest include cerebral palsy (pediatric and adult), developmental delay, other acquired and congenital brain disorders, spinal cord injury and spina bifida, acute musculoskeletal injuries, muscular dystrophies,and other neuromuscular conditions. I offer muscle tone management, including botulinum toxin injections and intrathecal baclofen pump management, bracing, prosthetics, assistive device and adaptive equipment, & therapeutic program referrals.
