In a recent segment on NBC news I was interviewed about the ACL repair technique I have been performing utilizing the BEAR implant.
Dr Rizio interviewed on WNBC TV (link to interview)
This procedure repairs the injured ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) and avoids the taking a graft from another pert of the knee or use of donor tissue. The procedure is best for acute tears (recent). I am available for consultation to determine which procedure is best for each patients injury.
This is a short lecture on prevention of throwing injuries with the focus on baseball pitchers. The principles apply to athletes who participate in all overhead sports including tennis, javelin, football etc…
See my recently featured article on ACL repair and a new FDA approved implant. I have been performing this procedure and was the first in Northern New Jersey to perform the operation. I hope you enjoy the article.
The time has finally arrived! I will be moving my practice to the Ambulatory Care Center (ACC) in Livingston beginning April 4, 2022.

Tennis elbow is a common problem for patients who play tennis or not. The #Tenex device offers a minimally invasive solution for patients not improving with typical treatments and those who do not want to wait any longer to return to activity. I combine this with PRP at time of the procedure.
