👋Say hello to Fermin Santos, MD. Dr. Santos is Board Certified in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R). He focuses on non-surgical treatment for painful spine disorders, as well as non-surgical treatment options for shoulder, hip, and knee pains.

Dr. Santos notes that back and neck pain are common conditions, and many treatment options exist. He uses evidence-based treatments tailored to each patient because there's no one-size-fits-all solution for back and neck pain. He is trained to use fluoroscopy when doing his procedures. Fluoroscopy is a specialized imaging technique that uses X-rays to produce real-time, "moving" images of the body’s internal structures on a monitor.
