Here at Orthopedic Spine Care of Long Island our experienced specialists focus on your specific needs. We work with you to provide expert compassionate care. We utilize the latest radiographic technology and all care is tailored to the patient’s specific needs.
At our state-of-the-art spine center we are capable of making an accurate diagnosis with on-site MRI, CAT Scan, Fluoroscopy and X-ray. Therefore, all of the patients needs are met in one center; we have everything needed on the premises. There is never a need for you to travel unnecessarily to other locations.


We understand the issues you may be facing with mobility. Having this technology all on-site allows images to be immediately accessed by our physicians as well as all referring physicians. All images are transferred onto a disk and given to the patient for future review and comparison. This results in more efficient decision-making. With the assistance of the multiple on-site diagnostic imaging modalities, we are able to answer all questions you may have and make you feel as comfortable as possible throughout your visit.
