Wayne M. Winnick

I am a patient at Ivy/rehab and while I was waiting for my therapy session Mr. Winnick came in and spoke to the female receptionist. He was disrespectful and very rude. This was not the first time he did this while i was waiting. As a patient I should not have been exposed to this type of behavior especially coming from a perfessional chiropractor.

20 years ago, when I lived in NYC I went to Wayne Winnick for trigger point therapy, for my hip area. Prior to seeing Dr. Winnick, I saw another chiropractor, who said that I’d have to wear a lift in my shoe the rest of my life, because “one leg was longer than the other”. After reviewing that Dr’s X-ray’s, I clearly recall Winnick saying, “according to his X-rays you DO have this condition, but I can probably make it go away in 6-months with NO shoe lift, if you stay the course, and listen to me”. I did as Winnick suggested, and around that length of period my hip pain went COMPLETELY away, while my leg lengths became equal. Since then, I’ve lived in Orlando, and my hip pain has returned from being out of shape and not having continued routine chiropractic care. I’ve found another great chiropractor, but wanted to thank Dr. Winnick from the bottom of my heart… and also want him to know how much I miss him.

I am a swing dancer and it was looking like surgery was the only option to help my arthritic knees. Dr. John Schneider who was recommended by my surgeon helped me avoid that. But it is his compassion and ability to really listen that I am most grateful for. I have found that kind of "bedside manner" is difficult to come by. UPDATE: Unfortunately I did end up needing surgery but I still recommend Dr. Schneider.

Dr Wayne Winnick and his entire team have kept three generations of my family healthy, active, and pain-free for years! Their approach is not like any chiropractor I have ever been to I’ve been to many. Their practice focuses on soft tissue and breaking up scar tissue, which promotes long term healing and quality of life. They are also incredible diagnosticians! I had a knee replacement and hip replacement and Dr Winnick’s team treated me both pre-surgically and post-surgically. As a result, my healing was faster than the surgeons anticipated and I have more strength and mobility in both joints than could have been expected. My son is an athlete and has Ogood Schlatter Disease in his knee. Dr. Winnick’s team has kept him on the basketball court, pain free, with no interruption to his training schedule. My father was scheduled for back surgery due to extreme pain. I finally got him into Dr Winnick’s office as a “last ditch effort” pre-surgery. After 3 visits my father was pain free and even the back surgeon said surgery was now unnecessary. My family owes a huge debt of gratitude to Dr Winnick and his team, I obviously could not recommend them more highly!

I have been using this office for various ailments for years . The people at the desk are efficient, polite and even call with alternate more convenient times if you request that. Most recently I have worked with Dr. Rachel Skolnick for hip and back ailments from a lower back compression. She is proactive, strong, personable and never treats something that she think requires an Orthopedic consult , X-ray or PT. I have had such pain relief with her treatments whether it is from traction, electric stimulation or deep tissue treatment. She goes to frequent conferences and lectures on treatment updates and findings and is very knowledgeable . This is an amazing office and staff and Dr. Rachel Skolnick is outstanding.

I have been a patient here for over 20 years. I have worked with all of the Chiropractors there, but I primarily work with Dr. John Schneider. They are all fantastic, but the important thing to know is that these Doctors are very passionate about what they do and how you are progressing health wise. This practice is recognized with top orthopedic doctors at HSS, Lenox Hill, etc. They have helped me tremendously with my lower back, neck and shoulder issues. Their staff are amazing and the office is a clean, sleek, and efficiently run practice. There are health care providers who say they know A.R.T., but Dr. John is an accredited teacher on Active Release Technique A.R.T., so I know I am getting the correct treatment for my specific issue.

A remarkable healer, problem spotter and kind professional. He’s a gift. You leave with a plan and a deeper understanding of improvement-what you can do to care for yourself- realistically. His office team Eve, Janice, Margaret- overall the A team- they are all the very best at what they do. Thank you

I am posting on behalf of my boss. He has seen Dr. Rachel Skolnick for 3 consecutive years. Dr. Skolnick is AMAZING!!! My boss has impeccable taste and the highest of standards. He grew up in NY and knows the top professionals in every industry, so for him to continue to see Dr. Skolnick after three years, it says so much about his satisfaction with her as a person, as well as his continued success with pain management. When I first started with my boss four years ago, he was always in pain. Now, he never complains, and if he needs to see Rachel for a touch up, she does everything she can to accommodate him and his very busy schedule. Working with Rachel has been an absolute pleasure. I recommend her to everyone I know. If you are looking for someone to take the time to truly learn your body, find long-term solutions for your acute and/or chronic pain, then you must go see Dr. Rachel Skolnick ASAP!

We took our 14 year old daughter to Dr. Winnick for thoracic outlet syndrome. She had been experiencing shooting pain down her arm off and on for six months and was unable to participate in any sports. We had seen two orthopedists and spent months at PT and it did not seem to be improving. After 6 weeks of Dr. Winnick’s treatment the pain was completely gone and she was ready to return to sports. He is truly a miracle worker and has an incredible ability to heal with his hands. We are forever grateful.

From the moment I walked into Dr Wayne Winnick’s office i knew I was in good hands. I hve been to several PT franchises in the city and after weeks of treatment I was not feeling any better. I actually felt worse. I thank Dr. Winnick and his staff. Not only was the front desk staff patient. They accommodated my busy work schedule. Dr Winnick’s patience, knowledge of my injury and recovery path was spot on. I also worked with Rachel who was a pleasure. During our bi-weekly appointments she pinpointed where I needed to stretch. I literally called her a “miracle worker” Rachel outlined a weekly game plan understanding my “love of fitness” We designed a smart workout regime. To date I’m perfect. I don’t want to hurt myself again, if I do I won’t fear cause I know all will be ok since I found Dr. Winnick.
