If your painful diabetes-related neuropathy isn’t responding to
treatment, talk to us about HFX™
Painful Diabetic Neuropathy (PDN): A Chronic, Debilitating Pain with Limited Treatment Options
- 34 million people have diabetes in the U.S.(1) and roughly half of all adults with diabetes will suffer from diabetic neuropathy in their lifetime(2)
- ~2.3MM patients suffer from PDN with no relief from current treatments(3)
- Diabetic neuropathy is nerve damage caused by high blood sugars
- Nerve damage can cause pain and numbness that can make you more vulnerable to falls, burns, infections, ulcers, and longer-term complications.
- Painful diabetic neuropathy can significantly interfere with your quality of life, sleep, and functionality.
Current Treatments Leave Room for Improvement
- Treatment options include over-the-counter medications, prescription medications, physical therapy or injections, however for many patients these options are inadequate for long-term relief.
- Opioids, a commonly used tool in the management of diabetes related neuropathy, also present addiction potential, long-term dependence and show little evidence of improved function.

Testimonials
Dr. Arcella has been a professional consult of mine since 2017. His medical opinion has been well researched, evidence based, and well thorough every time. I rely on his expertise and appreciate his candid nature.
DeNovo team was great to work with especially Dr. Arcella. He took the time to understand my needs and how he can help. He is the best at what he does!!!
Great doctor. Would send my friends and family to him.
Dr. Arcella is top notch. Board Certified Anesthesiologist. Harvard trained. Compassionate and smart!! Highly recommend!!
I slipped a disc in my neck and had debilitating pain. Soon after talking to Dr Arcella I was well on my way to recovery. Pain free with full strength now.
Great caring atmosphere. Immediate attention. They were efficient and professional.
Dr. Arcella gave me my life back!!!!! Immediate physical relief, mental outlook, and overall quality of life!!!! Many thanks to him and all of his outstanding staff!!
Dr. Arcella is the best. The office is clean, organized, and runs on time. He is so kind and takes his time, but most importantly has the most cutting edge treatments.
My experience with Dr. Arcella was very positive. He was super attentive, communicative, skilled, and knowledgeable.
Absolutely first rate. Dr. Arcella and his entire team are accommodating, caring, and professional. Was able to see me the same the same day when I called for an evaluation and treatment for my severe back pain.
My wife has experienced chronic pain for years. The past few months had led to even greater chronic pain that impacts nearly every aspect of our lives. The staff was exceptional at not simply gathering the initial history, but continuing to listen throughout the process. As one with chronic pain may know, the ability to effectively communicate is often challenging. All pain which may include the neck, back, sciatica, etc are not created equal. The staff not only listened initially, but has continued to strive to help alleviate long term chronic pain that has gotten more manageable since treatment at Denovo Pain Management. We appreciate Dr Arcella and his staff in their desire to help solve long term issues through a systematic, thoughtful, and caring approach that gives hope for a better tomorrow.
After years of chronic pain and multiple spine surgeries Dr. Arcella was able to diagnose the problem on my first visit and devised a plan to eliminate my pain without the use of opioids. I left there today a new man with a new outlook on life. I had forgotten what it was like to be without pain.
Dr. Arcella is fantastic! I came in with neck and shoulder pain and.he listened carefully to where and how it was hurting me and then that day he gave me micro targeted steroid shot on main pain point and within a 48 hours I was feeling significantly better. I am now back playing tennis pain free. The office is well run and efficient. Dr. Arcella is friendly and very good at diagnosing exact nature of problem. He really cared about eliminating the pain I was having.
I received the best care here for my lower back. The staff is very professional and caring. Thank you guys for everything!!!
Dr Arcella helped me to eliminate all pain in my hip. He and his staff are wonderful and I recommend him for all pain management.
I was suffering from severe headaches as a result of head and neck surgury. Medications did not work. The headaches would last for days. My PCP referred me to Dr. Arcella. After discussion Dr. Arcella recomendrd a nerve block shot. Unfortunately I did not have any relief. A few day later we agreed on different shot process. I have been headache free for three weeks now. Highly recommend DeNovo Pain Management for your pains and a better life.
Dr. Arcella and staff are excellent. They are patient with compassionate understanding during a time of uncertain origin of pain. Dr. Arcella was able to find the problem and had me walking without assistance within 3 visits. I highly recommend this practice.
My pain was so excruciating I could not turn over to find a comfortable position to sleep. Getting out of bed was worse as it took about 30 minutes to stand reasonably upright. One month and 4 days ago, Dr Arcella listened and began treatment. I can hardly believe that I am currently pain free! I cannot begin to relate how grateful I am!
They call it DeNovo Pain Management, they should really call it Denovo Compassion, Competence and Caring. Went Monday for a diagnosis for nerve pain in my groin, and entire front leg. I had incurred three months of medication, visits to orthopedic, neurosurgeon, during which time incurring substantial pain and lack of sleep. Starting Monday, Dr. Arcella prescribed medication, and I had an epidural injection today. I feel much better and have much confidence going ahead. Thanks to all the caring staff with a special shutout to Heather. PS, I made this journey to Dr Arcella from the Philadelphia area, via a recommendation from my sons local doctor friend. I’m not sorry about making the trip, and plan to come back for follow up visits when necessary.
Dr Arcello gave me all of my options and was very honest. 2 treatments and I have my quality of life back. Support staff is friendly and caring
Dr. Arcella and his staff are absolutely amazing! He told me when I first met with him that not to worry that he had a lot of tricks up his sleeve and a lot of recommendations but ultimately I was in charge of my own path of care. I love his approach and I love the fact that he is helping my pain subside!
My father has been in excruciating pain for years. Last year he had a full hip replacement in hopes that would ease the pain. It did not. His orthopedic surgeon referred him to DeNovo pain management. Dr. Arcella and his staff have been amazing. From the time we walked in the door, he has been treated with nothing but kindness and professionalism. Better yet, after just 2 visits, my dad is pain free!!! Dr.arcella explained dad’s options and recommendations thoroughly and did so using verbage we could understand. On the second visit my dad hobbled in the office and came out skipping with a smile on his face that I hadn’t seen in years. I cannot thank this office enough for their gift of life they provided for my dad. I definitely recommend to anyone with pain. They are the best!
Dr. Arcella and his team are awesome. He’s caring and kind and professional without being condescending. He listens and will assure u that whatever it takes he’ll do his best to help. I would recommend this team to anyone who is looking for assistance in managing their pain.
I must admit my first visit to see Dr. Arcella I was a mess. My rt shoulder and neck was my complaint. I was in so much pain I couldnt think straight I’m so serious. But after several injections and Encouragement from the entire staff. I’m now a happy woman. Don’t suffer from pain call Dr. Arcella for help
Blessings Julia Gibbs
