Saved my back!

by bnycb

When I suddenly started having lower back pain for the first time in my life, I had no idea where to go. I asked a close friend for a recommendation and she insisted I go to Dr. Baiata. When I realized that he didn't accept insurance, I went against my better judgment and decided to try a nearby chiro in my network first. Bad idea! I had the worst, most uncomfortable experience ever and ended up in even more pain. After that, I decided it was time to go see Dr. Baiata.

The first session included a very thorough evaluation and an adjustment. Dr. B was able to pinpoint exactly what was causing my pain and adjust me accordingly. He suggested two more sessions, but did not pressure me into coming back. Within 24 hours of the first session, my back pain was gone. I went back for two more adjustments, as suggested, and the pain has not been back.

I was extremely impressed with Dr. Baiata. He is a caring and passionate doctor who takes the time to listen to his patients and answer any questions they may have. I will definitely be sending my friends and family his way.

My Hero

by nanasmommy

Hadn't been to a chiropractor in over 10 years, but slept funny and woke up in pain. 5 days later things had progressed so that my entire left shoulder and neck was totally in spasm with 3 ribs out of joint - I couldn't move without crying. Went to a DO and a PT who were very nice but didn't still put things back into place, on muscle relaxants and pain meds and was STILL in agony. Bit the bullet and I decided to try and find a new chiropractor.

Dr. Baiata basically the first person I was able to reach, and I am really glad he was. He was terrific. Good manner, great technique, and I walked out with my muscles sore from 5 days of spasm but the intense wrenching pain was GONE. The difference is truly night and day. AND he didn't try and sign me up for more sessions - just said if I needed him again, I knew where to find him. I am incredibly grateful.

He saved my back.

by LeeLee75

I just want to thank Dr. Baiata for doing a great job on my back last week. I hurt my back pretty bad and Dr. Baiata saw me right away and helped tremendously. I don't know what I would have done without him. -L.L.

• Pros: attentive, thorough, lifesaver
• Cons: I can't think of any.

Chiropractic Worked!

by how2b

I had tried physical therapy, expensive orthopedists, massage -- and was still in pain. Finally, I got relief with Dr. Baiata. He is effective, compassionate and takes time to understand his patient's concerns. His knowledge is considerable, and I trust his judgment. I feel in good hands! Now, I get a monthly checkup to stay limber.

An amazing chiropractor!

by HediaMaron

My girlfriend and I have been going to see Dr. Baiata weekly since last February, when we were rear-ended at a stoplight. From the very first appt. I knew Dr. Baiata was a gem. He took xrays of our necks and and explained the injury to us in clear and practical terms. He is always forthcoming about what treatments are necessary and why they work.

But really the reason to go see Dr. Baiata is the adjustments are precise and effective. My girlfriend and I have gone from not being able to move our necks at all to having occasional discomfort to now having full mobility. Along with my neck being healed my posture has improved and I haven't gotten sick with a cold for months and months.

Even though the car insurance is stopping our visits I plan to go see Dr. Baiata every month or so just for upkeep. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is very friendly, professional, caring and knowledgeable. I recently recommended a friend to him and she has been beyond happy with the care he provides.

• Pros: Very close to several subway lines, the 6, J, M, B, D, F, V. Close to Gimme Coffee on Mott St., the perfect thing after an adjustment!
• Cons: Nearly impossible to find street parking.

Best Chiropractor

by sophiaNYCia

Dr. Baiata is a great chiropractor and an amazing healer. I went to see Dr. Baiata after I hurt my neck doing a headstand in a yoga class and the instructor recommended that I see a chiropractor, Dr. Baiata. He possess a calming and relaxing energy and a warm touch as well as an in depth understanding of the body. Dr. Baiata explained everything to me and left me feeling informed and empowered. I felt very comfortable with him and left feeling so much better.

• Pros: Warm Hands

Finally some relief...

by connerOconner

I've never been to a chiropractor before giving Dr. Baiata a shot based on his reviews online. I went to him quiet skeptical, but I needed to give chiropractic a shot because nothing else has worked for me. Dr. Baiata was able to clearly explain to me what was going on with my back in such a way that made complete sense. Then he treated my back with a chiropractic adjustment, which was what I have been needing all along.

I cannot compare Dr. Baiata to other chiropractors because he is the only one I have ever been to, but I found him to be a very honest and gentle person who genuinely cares. Even though I don't have much experience with doctors of chiropractic, he is the best doctor I have ever been to.

• Pros: Fast Relief, Location
• Cons: none

An extraordinary healer, an unusually generous soul.

by DAJ1970

Last year, I found myself in excruciating pain from a chronic L4-L5 back issue. I was completely immobilized and could not move an inch without going into full spasm. I had seen Dr. Baiata several times and he had helped me greatly - I wanted to go to him, but couldn't begin to stand up, let alone make a trip on the Subway. Dr. Baiata made a house call - you heard me, a HOUSE CALL in this day and age - gently assuring me that things would get better, working slowly and deliberately to ease my pain. And then, once I was mobile again, I was able to make marked improvement quickly. Throughout all of it, "Dr. Nick" remained steadfast, supportive and expert. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

• Pros: expert service, attentive, thoughtful, focused.
• Cons: none

True Healer

by rebelwithacause

I sought out Dr. Nick for an excrutiating neck pain, and physcial trauma retention from 9/11. As a result I had multitude muscular and nerve problems and was resigned to a life of Pain. Seeing Dr. Nick once a week completely removed all the problems over a period of six months, and eventually resulted in the discovery of one small injury. During the time I was seeing him I had a server foot and ankle sprain which he also treated removing the swelling and fluid from my foot and knees. I have my health back and my life. The man is a genuis of medicine and a true Healer.

• Pros: His schedule is flexible and his rates are reasonable.

Dr. Nicholas Baiata

by BrianCerda

I started using Dr. Baiata's services for a pinch nerve in my back. I don't know much about anatomy. but just a few weeks later, it was gone. But a year latter I still see him every week, just because it feels great and my posture has improved a 100% .

Not to mention he is the most assertive at pinpointing my problem areas and treating them on the spot every time.

I highly recommend Dr. Baiata's services instead of any spa treatment. This is the best pampering.

• Pros: You get, and feel instant results.
• Cons: I only see him once a week.
