Patient Reviews
Jan 05, 2024
I had a horrific car accident and suffered chronic pain that badly affected my personal & daily life. I tried a chiropractor for 3 years. Then I went to an Orthopedic Surgeon deep in Long Island but then I was highly referred to Dr. Schechter and he helped me achieve my goals and did an outstanding job. He is kind & caring & he manages the staff professionally. He is very efficient and excels in his ability to manage his team. I like that Dr. Schechter is very thorough & detailed in his plan of care. He has greatly helped me achieve a better quality of life.Thank you Dr. Schechter and I highly recommend him.
