An Important Notice To Our Valued Patients

Dear Patient of Sandro LaRocca, M.D. at New Jersey Neck & Back Institute, 

We would like to inform you that Dr. Sandro LaRocca retired from medical practice effective December 31, 2025. It has been our privilege to participate in your care, and we remain committed to assisting you with a smooth transition to your next provider.

TRANSFER OF MEDICAL RECORDS

If you are continuing care with a new physician or medical facility, your records can be transferred directly to that provider. To process any request, a completed HIPAA Authorization Form must be included. For your convenience, this form is enclosed with this mailing. Requests cannot be processed without assigned authorization.

Upon receipt of the completed Patient Authorization Form, please allow up to 30 days for records to be processed through our Release of Information service. There is no charge to patients for copies of their medical records.

Request may be submitted by mail, email, or fax to our Release of Information provider and Record Custodian: 

Iron Mountain Release of Information 

11333 E. 53rd Ave.

Denver, CO  80239

EMAIL: DenverROI@ironmountain.com

PHONE: 303-373-5764

FAX: 303-576-6874

To ensure patient privacy and regulatory compliance, the following additional requirements must also be met:

• The request must originate directly from the requesting medical facility.

• If submitted by fax, the request must be on official facility letterhead.

• If submitted electronically, the request must come from a verified facility email domain.

• Requests sent from personal email account accounts (such as Gmail, AOL, Yahoo, etc.) cannot be accepted.

• Medical records will be transmitted only to the requesting facility, not to a physician's or administrator's personal email address.

These safeguards are in place to protect your health information and ensure secure transfer of care.

REGARDING RECORD COMPLETENESS

Please note that, in certain instances, portions of a medical record may be unavailable because physician offices are permitted to lawfully purge records in accordance with federal and state retention guidelines. While such situations are uncommon, they may occur and do not indicate error or negligence.

If you have any questions about obtaining your records or facilitating transfer of care, please call Iron Mountain's contact number above, and they will be happy to guide you through the process.

We sincerely thank you for the trust you placed in Dr. LaRocca and New Jersey Neck & Back Institute over the years, and we wish you the very best in your continued care and health.

Sincerely,

New Jersey Neck & Back Institute
