Dr. Fuoco’s philosophy on helping his patients with pain centers around identifying the primary pain generator and prescribing a comprehensive approach to improve a patient’s pain and maximize functional outcomes. This can include a combination of physical therapy, interventional spinal procedures, appropriate prescription medications, as well as other modalities.
