Jose D.

His expertise includes the treatment of back pain, neck pain, joint pain and problems associated with weakness.

Dr. Ibarbia began practicing with New Jersey Physicians in 2012, after completing his fellowship in cancer rehabilitation at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. He says, “My goal is to minimize physical impairment and maximize function so that my patients can return to their activities.” Fluent in Spanish, he welcomes patients from all communities and backgrounds.
Dr. Ibarbia has delivered local and regional invited presentations in his field. He is a member of the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, the Association of Academic Physiatrists and the New York Society of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.
