Personable, knowledgable, SKILLED. He came to see me daily in Hospital to check. Many other doctors would have left me to a resident. He's my spine hero!

Dr.Wolinsky is an exceptional Dr. I'm very lucky to have him for my spine care. I have extensive medical records, he never rushes me. Explains everything in detail very thoughtfully. He's very smart, knows exactly how to interpret PET scans, MRI's in details that others do not have the expertise to do so. He goes above and beyond every visit. I feel as though he treats me as a family member that he wants the most amazing care for. NW is so fortunate to have him. There are so few like him. He epitomizes what ot truly means to be an exceptional Dr. and an exceptional human being.

Dr. Wolinsky is a rock star! My initial visit, surgery and follow up visit were all great. Of course, as you know, Dr. Wolinsky is extremely knowledgable, and explained so that we understood what was going on. I am lucky to have had him and his team for my surgery.

Dr. Wolinsky is the kindest, most knowledgeable, professional, patient-caring doctor ever. He literally saved my husband’s life with his surgery and continued follow up appointments. He went above and beyond by answering all of our questions and consulted with another local doctor out of state where we live which we so much appreciated. Northwestern is extremely fortunate to have him on staff, and we were grateful recipients of his love and care and concern. My husband was mis-diagnosed multiple times until we saw Dr. Wolinsky. Thanks and gratitude are due to him!!!!!
