About Dr. Ronald M. Lieberman

Dr. Lieberman is a board certified physiatrist and a nationally recognized expert in the diagnosis and treatment of an array of painful spinal disorders (neck and back pain) and he is committed to providing the best care for each and every one of his patients. In addition, his patients benefit from his keen ability to quickly diagnose the source of their pain and then implement practical and effective treatments. Dr. Lieberman is board certified in both Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, as well as Pain Management.

He specializes in proactive treatment plans paired with non-surgical therapies. Dr. Lieberman treats patients with acute neck and back pain with or without nerve injuries or sciatica, as well as the chronic form of similar problems originating from spinal arthritis. His practice offers state-of-the-art techniques and holistic solutions for its patients, empowering them to return to the daily activities they enjoy.

Dr. Lieberman received his training in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and his medical degree from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. Dr. Lieberman specializes in diagnostic and therapeutic spinal injections as well as in advanced interventions, with more than 15 years of experience in interventional pain management. He is a national instructor for the International Spinal Injection Society and is actively involved in physician proctoring of interventional pain management relieving strategies and procedures.

His patients benefit from his ability to diagnose the source of their pain followed by implementation of specific solutions to that cause, some of which require only corrective exercises and or a spinal injection procedure to facilitate the rehabilitation process. These corrective exercises frequently help the patient prevent recurrence of that particular painful condition. Additionally, Dr. Lieberman’s non-operative approach encompasses alternative regenerative therapies for conditions that coincide or mimic spine referred pain such as hip or extremity referred pain from the back or neck.

Dr. Lieberman offers a personalized touch not only in person but also by being accessible by cell phone.
