Dr Varlotta’s commitment to my care has helped me find hope in the darkest time when other doctor’s overlooked my symptoms. He didn’t give up until we found a solution that helped the pain I have learned to live with. He has given me a new lease on life and I cannot say where I would be without Dr. Varlotta. I highly recommend this practice.

After years of leg/lower back pain and two spinal surgeries, I was referred to Dr. Varlotta. Within three months I was medication free and on my way to being physically stronger, resulting in less pain. Today, after many years I continue to see Dr. Varlotta on a regular basis. While I will never be pain free, he has treated my pain to the point where I can live a normal life, without the use of constant medications. He is a wonderful and caring physician who really is invested in my well being!

As an avid boxer and weight-lifter I've had my share of joint injuries. Whenever an injury is severe enough to warrant seeking care, I am always frustrated by how hard it is to find a physician who truly understands the needs of an athlete and the fact that my objective is always to return to optimal performance not just to be pain free. As someone who works with many pro athletes, Dr. Varlotta is one of the first physicians I've worked with who really understands this. He is professional, pleasant, and thorough and very well connected with other top doctors in NYC. I'd definitely recommend Dr. Varlotta to anyone seeking an expert diagnostician who operates in a nice and clean facility with professional and courteous staff.

I was suffering from a broken facet cyst of my L4-5. It was Christmas, and all my doctors were on vacation. I was in horrible agony. I had spoken with the doctors office before, but they originally were booked and could not see me for weeks. When my pain got so bad I called everyone and anyone I could think of. I spoke with David Dr Varlotta's assistant and he could hear in my voice the terrible pain. He got me into the office that day, and I have been a faithful patient ever since.

I've seen Dr. Varlotta for close to 10 years for a slipping patella and other complications. He looks at the body as a whole rather than a separate knee issue. He treats for the long run and always explains what he is doing and how you will feel. He takes his time, I never feel rushed through with him, and I'm in less pain then I was for decades before seeing him.

I have been seeing Dr. Varlotta for the past 9 or 10 years. I had back surgery more than 20 years ago and when my back started to cause me pain, I went to see Dr. Varlotta. Having 2 small children, surgery was not an option for me anymore. Still being relatively young, I did not want my lifestyle to change. I enjoy exercising and playing with my kids, but my back was too painful. Dr. Varlotta offered a non-surgical option that allowed my to maintain my life as I enjoyed it.

I have several herniated disks and spondylolisthesis. At one point, I had ruptured a disk and had a dropped foot. Through Dr. Varlotta's guidance and enthusiastic approach, I have regained all of my sensation in my leg and I have been able to continue with my exercise and lifestyle. He has helped me several times when I was in an "emergency" situation and has always been available. He spends a lot of time with each patient, explaining things in terms that are easy to understand. His suggestions have been great. I call him my "Savior" and have recommended him to many who have also come out of his office blessing me and him!

I am very happy to have him as my doctor. He was the only one that found out what my problem was.. I have been in back pain for a long time. He has been very thorough and he suggested that I take these injections of the spine and of my knees. I feel he is very kind and knowledgeable. I have spinal problems that leave me unable to walk and unable sit for short periods of time. He has always given good direction in taking care of myself. Which have helped me tremendously.

I have seen Dr. Varlotta for over twenty years. With a bad back, I have climbed mountains, traveled extensively and worked full time until recently. I am now 70. Dr. Varlotta always answers me promptly, more recently via email. He even answered my questions when he was on vacation. My spine will not get better, in fact, it is getting worse. Dr. Varlotta provides the reassurance and practical treatment that enables me to live a full life.

I've gone to Dr. Varlotta for several years due to the results I get from his care. He has treated many of my issues caused by recreational sports as well as problems from every day living. He carefully explains the issue, discusses why it may have happened and what his course of action is going to be - all intended to give you a complete understanding of the diagnosis and treatment. I have recommended Dr. V to many people and all appreciate the wonderful care & attention he gives his patients.

I have been working with Dr Varlotta on knee arthritis and lower back pain. The treatments he has done have been tremendous in relieving my pain and getting me back to tennis and all my activities. I am very appreciative of his care and expertise. Love his new location. Much more personal attention.

First let me say that Dr. Varlotta is super sweet - which goes a long way in my book. But what's more important is that before I met him I had been living with terrible neck pain for what seems like an eternity. I assumed it was a permanent condition. I've now been pain free for several months and feel better than ever! I also love that his new office is in midtown. Thanks Dr. V - there are no words!
