I explained I did see an HSS doctor (Dr. Robert Griffin) ONE TIME, but that I didn't like him, didn't feel comfortable with him, and wanted to switch my care to Dr. Waldman. She refused to even hear me out. Wouldn't return calls. I would be extremely wary, espescially of this 'doctor' and his hench woman Bonnie. Moving all my care to Och Spine at Weil/Cornell.

This is the worst "doctor" I've ever seen. I went to Dr. Kulick's office in 2012, and $1,320 later,…read morethe best advice he gave me to cure my chronic hives was to take off all my copper jewelry, and start taking supplements. :/ After two strange appointments with him, and two very uncomfortable acupuncture sessions, I decided to get an opinion from a real dermatologist. She gave me a patch test, and three days later I learned that I'm allergic to a chemical present in some body wash products. Why Dr. Kulick never administered a patch test, I do not know. Maybe he wanted the hives to continue so he could get more money from me. In any case, I paid out of pocket for both appointments, and in 2013, to my surprise, Dr. Kulick's name appeared on my credit report! Now, in 2015, my credit report still shows a "delinquent" account with a collections agency named "Capital Accounts." I haven't received any bills in the mail from Dr. Kulick or Capital Accounts, and I've had the same phone number for like 10 years. No one has attempted to collect this apparent debt, but now it's ruining my credit report and I can't sign a lease on a new apartment. Dr. Kulick himself hasn't even responded to my emails about this - just his office manager, who sent me a PDF of my "billing history," which doesn't even add up the numbers correctly! Always double check your math, guys! ;)

I came to Dr. Cyril's office because I was in intense lower back pain and none of the doctors I had…read moreseen were able to help me. I was referred to Dr. Cyril because " he is a medical detective". My first visit lasted an hour because he took my medical history and asked detailed questions about my back pain. Then he made the diagnosis, a pinched nerve in my spine, and backed it up with an MRI. He prescribed exercises for me to do with physical therapists and at home and to my relief they worked. For the first time in a long time I do not have lower back pain. Dr Cyril is highly skilled, brilliant, and cares about his patients. He really listens. I feel fortunate that he is my Doctor.

I'm starting to do light workouts again and I am more flexible and in less pain. I'm so glad I held off on a drastic spinal fusion surgery and waited for something like this to exist.

Believe the bad reviews!! I went here with high expectations. I thought for $350 there would be…read morex-rays there would be some kind of examination, something to justify this price. I was highly mistaken. He brings you into a room for a brief 10-minute interview (if it was even that long) and prescribes you muscle relaxers. I don't know how he is in business I don't know how people go to him. The wait was long over an hour just to see him. He takes all of his appointments at exactly the same time and that is the reason for the long wait. My only guess is that people with insurance don't mind since the insurance companies will foot the bill but if you're coming out of pocket please go elsewhere. I have no ulterior motives besides being a patient in extreme pain and hopefully I can help someone else in making the right decision I Do not recommend him at all.

I received treatment at Spear PT's Upper East Side location on 3rd Avenue between 67th and 68th Streets, where my physical therapist was Ronique James. After eight weeks of treatment, I am now almost pain-free. Ronique was smart, caring, and attentive throughout the process. She listened carefully, asked thoughtful questions about my condition, and checked in regularly about which parts of the treatment felt too difficult, which exercises were helpful, and how I was progressing. She also varied the exercises, which kept the treatment from becoming repetitive or boring. Her approach reflected a strong understanding of my condition and the appropriate combination of care, including massage, ultrasound, stretching, and strengthening exercises. Ronique was always on time and consistently gave me the time and attention I needed. The administrative side of the experience was equally smooth. Scheduling appointments, coordinating insurance payments, and handling related details were all seamless. The staff was friendly, efficient, and consistently got everything right the first time. The facility itself was clean, organized, and well equipped, which made the overall experience even better.
