With over 20 years experience, I enjoy providing personalized, comprehensive spine care to patients of all ages. I dedicate my career to building advanced spine centers featuring the latest technologies close to your home. My other passion is helping indigent children with severe spinal problems all over the world free of charge. Over my career I built complex spine centers in Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico through a nonprofit organization I founded.

Carrie (sorry if I misspelled this) and Dr Rinella were absolutely excellent. They came highly recommended, and I see why. Dr. Rinella put me at ease and treated me like a person, not just a patient. Also, rocking boots, my guy. Dude has style!
Dr. Rinella is simply the best doctor. He will listen to his patients and provides compassionate care.
Excellent care, thoughtful and compassionate
Dr Anthony Rinella and the staff at Duly Healthcare are wonderful and make it pleasant coming there for appointments. Highly recommend
Very good consultation I wish the Dr was my primary physician! I felt very comfortable with him.
