Dr. Aileen H. Padilla is a dual board-certified physician specializing in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Interventional Pain Management. She earned her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine from NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed a competitive PM&R residency at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University, followed by an advanced interventional pain fellowship through Rutgers New Jersey Medical School


With over nine years of hands-on experience and a demonstrated record of clinical innovation — including becoming the first female physician in Florida to perform Basivertebral Nerve Ablation (BVNA) and ViaDisc allograft implantation — Dr. Padilla brings rare procedural depth to every patient encounter. She is nationally recognized as a faculty member and consultant for Medtronic, Stryker Spine, and Boston Scientific, and has presented at AAPM&R and ASPN national conferences.


Her practice philosophy is grounded in evidence-based, conservative-to-interventional planning: treating each patient as a whole person and choosing the least invasive path that achieves meaningful, lasting relief.
