I truly cannot express my gratitude to Dr. D’Ambrosia. I have been shuffled from clinic to clinic, and provider to provider for years, living in constant pain. He and his team have worked so hard and quickly to support me in getting not just relief from multiple structural challenges, but get me to where I can enjoy life without reservation. I face a long, hard road ahead but am confident that working alongside Dr. D’Ambosia and many other excellent clinicians at OCC will absolutely lead to success.

Dr. D’Ambrosia made me feel immediately taken care of from my initial visit. I saw him while pregnant and again post-partum to express my concerns over my back pain because i have herniated discs from a previous accident and my pain significantly increased during my term and after labor. His bedside manner and prioritization of my wellbeing truly reassures me that he understands my needs and wants what’s best for me. Would recommend anyone to see him!!

Dr D'Ambrosis has been my pain doctor for over 5 years. Sometimes I have had to go to surgery, but Dr D has done everything in his power to help me avoid the knife. I have degenerative disc disease so he has his work cut out for him. Recently I saw him for a hip issue and I have no more pain , even though the hip doctor said I needed surgery. I truly believe that Dr D'Ambrosis is the most ethical doctor I've ever met. I owe him more than I can say here. I strongly suggest that if you were told you need surgery, please do yourself a favor and visit him. Thank you

I believe that Dr. D'Ambrosia is competent and knowledgeable, but my issue is that it took over 2 months to get an appointment, then I saw the doctor for maybe 5 minutes or less. He ordered an MRI, so I will reserve judgement until I see how long it takes to get follow-up to that test.
