Certified in Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (MDT)

IMC Outcomes Accountable Clinician (IMC OAC)

IMPACC Certified MSD Prevention & Ergonomics (IMPACC)

Stephen was born and raised in Hilton NY. Stephen met his wife (Megan) and received his Doctorate from the University at Buffalo in 2014 and has become an industry leader in diagnosis and treatment of spine, joint, and osteoarthritic pain problems.

Stephen is fully trained in Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (Cert. MDT) & IMC Outcomes Accountable Clinician (IMC OAC). These are rigorous courses that trains clinicians to produce the highest value care by getting the best clinical outcomes for the lowest cost.

Unlike traditional orthopedic care, Stephen is able to produce consistent outcomes by placing reliable, test-retest methods on the front end of diagnosis and orthopedic management. This allows for quicker and safer care, and easier prevention.

Stephen’s drive to prevent injuries and reduce healthcare costs led him to train with Dr. Lauren Hebert, a national leader in workplace injury prevention. Today, he delivers direct-to-employer programs across Western NY and the U.S.

The Retrieve Process

3 Step Transformation

Physical Therapy

Feel better, fast.

We start by figuring out exactly what's going on — not guessing with a generic exercise sheet with 6 exercises to do 2x/day.

We actually troubleshoot and problem solve. It's fast, focused 1:1 care to get pain out of the picture quickly. You're not spending time on exercises hoping to improve. You improve, and we show you.

Mobility, Strength, & Performance

Get Back What's Yours.

Once pain is extinugished, we shift to our custom MSP program that tracks aerobic, mobility, strength, and volume overtime.

You get equipment to train from home or on the road, direct text access to Stephen when you need it, and regular check-ins — virtual, in-person, whatever fits your week. No guesswork, no wasted time in a gym you don't have two hours for.

Prevention

Stay ahead of the changes.

Your life shifts every quarter — career demands, hobbies, home life, the season itself. We adjust your program to match, so you stay younger than you are, not just even.

And since you're already in, you get deep discount and loyalty pricing on physical therapy — so if something comes up, you're covered without starting over or paying full price.

FOREVER GRATEFUL

Brett K. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "My chronic back and hip issues were starting to impact my ability to walk and get in and out of vehicles. I've seen doctors and chiropractors that misdiagnosed my issues. Dr. Fose quickly identified my underlying problem and started an immediate plan. I simply can't believe I am moving without pain and returned to hiking after just a few days of following his plan. My family and I are forever grateful."

TESTIMONIALS

Gina B. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I spent a year and a half working on a chronically locked SI Joint. About a month of working with Stephen at Retrieve PT solved the problem. I was very frustrated and discouraged — I had seen other professionals and spent a lot of money. I can't say enough about how knowledgeable and helpful Stephen has been. I only wish I had done this sooner."

Cara M. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I had lower back pain for years. It forced me to cut back running to almost nothing. With Dr. Fose's approach and the movements he prescribed, I am back to running 3-4 days a week. I thought I was too old to run like this anymore. He is gentle, kind, and so effective."
