Options Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Center Welcomes New Medical Director

Dr. Lou Citarelli joins practice to oversee knee surgery prevention program

    NUTLEY, NJ, January 12, 2012 /United States PR News/ -- Options Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Center, in Nutley, NJ, Essex County, announces Lou Citarelli, MD, as the practice's medical director. Dr. Citarelli is a primary care medicine physician and medical acupuncturist with 25 years of experience.

Dr. Citarelli will direct a program that offers an alternative treatment for patients suffering from debilitating and degenerative knees. This involves Hyalgan (hylaronic acid) injections in the knee joint to relieve pain associated with mild, moderate, severe, or bone-on-bone rubbing osteoarthritis. Guided by video fluoroscopy, or live motion x-ray, Dr. Citarelli can determine the exact location in the joint to inject Hyalgan, and the site of the injection is essential to the procedure's effectiveness. In fact, studies have shown that without the use of live motion x-ray, physicians are less specific with the injections and may miss the joint space altogether.

"Dr. Citarelli is a caring and compassionate doctor that is adding another dimension to our multi-disciplinary practice," said Diego Ruiz, DC, Options Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Center CEO/founder. "Dr. Citarelli and the alternative treatment for knee pain allow us to continue to offer our patients complete and comprehensive pain care in one location."
