Maybe it’s not just those taking the opioids that are addicted – what  if doctors are addicted to prescribing them? That’s the question orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jay DeMarco poses on his quest to break the cycle of opioid addiction from start to finish. With new, holistic approaches to post-surgery pain management, Dr. DeMarco is convinced there are better techniques that should be explored.

Born and raised in the Lowcountry, Dr. Jay DeMarco has been repairing his community for over 20 years, one joint, muscle and bone at a time. With a specialty in shoulder and knees, Dr. DeMarco focuses on alternative pain relief and management options to help end the perpetuation of the current opioid epidemic.
