About

I’m Gerard Deib, an interventional neuroradiologist in Central Florida. I practice at HCA Florida Lake Monroe Hospital and direct Suncoast Spine and Pain Institute, an outpatient practice focused on spine and musculoskeletal pain, vertebral augmentation and bone health.

My work sits where imaging, procedures and metabolism meet. A compression fracture is a mechanical event, but it is also a sign of weak bone, and treating one without the other leaves the next fracture waiting. The same habit of looking past the image to the system behind it runs through my interests in spine biomechanics, neurovascular disease and regenerative therapies.

I write here to think in public: to explain how these conditions work, to read new evidence carefully, and to be clear about what we know, what is promising, and what is still preclinical.
