Specializing in Sports Medicine, Musculoskeletal Ultrasound, Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine

Dr. Glasser treats patients with musculoskeletal and sports-related injuries. She has considerable interest and expertise in providing non-surgical musculoskeletal orthopaedic care, especially in the spine and sports injuries. She also has a wealth of experience treating occupational/work-related injuries, as well as sports injuries.

Her interests include acute injuries and overuse injuries among athletes of all levels, including acute and chronic tendon and ligament injuries.

She is also trained in musculoskeletal ultrasound which assists in diagnosis and management of injuries. Ultrasound-guided injections can also improve accuracy and decrease pain.

Dr. Glasser is committed to the whole patient and wants to optimize a safe and quick return to sport and activities.

After Dr. Glasser performs a careful history and physical examination, she will obtain appropriate diagnostic tests such as x-rays, MRI, and CT scans. When needed she will perform muscle and nerve studies called EMG/NCV (electromyography). She takes a conservative approach to treatment, with a strong emphasis on individual exercise programs for specific problems and injury prevention programs.

Dr. Glasser,

I’m all bolted and stitched up. Good as new! I want to just thank you profusely for being an amazing anchor to good medical care and advice from across the world on multiple occasions over the last 10 years. There are not many doctors that I trust and I just really appreciate you. So thank you so much. I think you have assisted in cases involving Dengue fever in Sumatra (circa 2009), dirt bike related ligament damage on Thai-Burmese border (2011), and a host of other domestic minor medical tragedies as well. The surgeon was great and the experience quite pleasant overall. The anesthesiologist was from India and so lovely – we had a great chat.

Thanks to you Phil is doing well. If it were not for you and your request for an MRI when we came to see you things could have turned out differently. So thank you so much for your instincts, knowledge and patient advocacy because we did the MRI that same day and you notified us immediately what was found. We can’t thank you enough.

Laura and Phil

First, thank you again for your tremendous knowledge of research and medications-and then choosing one that would help me without the horrible side effects that over thirty (over 30!) doctors in the past prescribed for me.
Second, thank you for the referral for Jack. He was most pleased.
With our sincere thanks, warmest good wishes and love.

“I’ve been seeing Dr. Glasser for several years for many different issues. She is amazing!!! Always listens to what I have to say and never fails in getting me out of pain. I trust her advice and have been recommending her to friends and family since my very first visit.”

“I was looking for a physiatrist near my Jersey shore home instead of driving into NY to Hospital for Special Surgery, where I had been going for 15 years. Found Dr. Glasser online and after studying her credentials, made an appt. I have seen her twice now. Both appts were a great experience all around. Just had a left shoulder injection and will definitely continue going back to her.”
