Osteopathic Manipulation
Our osteopathic manipulation uses hands-on techniques to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions. This approach improves mobility, reduces pain, and enhances the body's natural healing processes. Patients benefit from personalized treatment plans that address specific structural imbalances and functional limitations.
Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative medicine treatments stimulate the body's natural healing response through advanced biological therapies. We offer platelet-rich plasma and amniotic growth factor injections to repair damaged tissues and reduce inflammation. These treatments provide long-term solutions for chronic orthopedic conditions without surgical intervention.
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Our diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound provides real-time imaging of soft tissues and joints. This technology enables precise diagnosis of injuries and guides interventional procedures with enhanced accuracy. Patients receive immediate visual feedback about their condition during office visits.
Medical Acupuncture
Medical acupuncture integrates traditional Chinese techniques with modern medical science to treat pain and dysfunction. Our physicians use this modality to address chronic pain conditions, sports injuries, and neurological disorders. Treatments promote natural healing and improve functional outcomes.
Pain Management
Our comprehensive pain management approach addresses chronic musculoskeletal pain through multimodal therapies. We combine interventional procedures, regenerative treatments, and physical medicine techniques to reduce pain and improve function.

These are the best doctors around! My mom was a patient of Dr. Stein's since I was a baby, and even though she's no longer with us, I'm still a patient, and I'm 39! Dr. Stein, Dr. Albert, and the other staff are godsends. I've referred several friends there, and I'll be a patient as long as there's an office. Christina, at the front desk, is wonderful too. I can't thank them enough.

I see dr Stein and hes a great doctor!! Hes been pretty spot on of what was wrong with my back prior to even getting an MRI. After getting MRI, it was confirmed what he thought was the issue so he definitely knows what hes doing. I have a herniated disk and have been to many treatments and still have not fully healed but from my understanding it could be a bit so nothing faulty of the doctor. My only complaint of this facility is the waits- every time I have gone in I wait min 30 min, typical wait 45 min and Ive waited nearly 2 hours at one session. The only reason Id switch docs

No stars. Horrible place to go with bad service and the old white lady at the front desk is disrespectful and rude. Changing providers ASAP. Show up there on time and they don't see you until 20 mins later. Never sent my paper work over and the doctor has a million interns. When I called the front desk old lady yelled at me and hung up and said she had people to check in. She needs to be fired.

I have been seeing Dr. Stein and his staff for over 22 years...wouldn't go anywhere else for pain related issues. This guy knows his stuff. Love Linda at the desk as well as Kathy and Evie in the back. They are all very personable and make you feel like you are the only patient there.

After a 11/2 years of trying to solve back and hip pain. Dr Stein and Dr Albert got to the root of my debilitation. I have tried accupunture, chiropractic, physical therapy, and 3 orthopedic practices I FINALLY found drs that listened to me rather than staying only in their path. Forever indebted to the office personel..especially Linda and the sweetest Christina

I went to the orthopedic doctor here after a significant car accident. My neck was extremely sore and I couldn't feel my arms and hands. After examining me, the doctor said that it must be carpal tunnel syndrome. I got a second opinion, and it turns out that all of the discs in my neck are either bulging, herniating, or, in the doctor's words, totally shredded. I don't know why they rushed me in and out. I did not feel as though I was taken seriously

DO NOT GO HERE. First of all, I never saw this Dr. Stein person. I only saw doctors who were doing a fellowship or worse students. This is a teaching facility so you don't get the best help. I went here sadly for 6 months because they kept saying let me run a test or I'll give you a shot. When they gave me a shot in the neck I couldn't turn my head. I was so worried that I went back the next day and they were like "Sometimes that happens no big deal, you'll be able to move it again". It took a week for me to be able to move my neck. The one main Dr. I did see who oversaw the fellows was Dr. Trainer
