Doctor Wolinsky was very kind, good natured and thorough in his explantation and evaluation of my issues. Although we decided surgery may be in my future we are going to exhaust other options before taking that step. His recommendation was to take some other precautions first. I always appreciate a surgeon who wants to try alternative therapy prior to jumping into a surgery.

For all the reasons mentioned above, we would highly recommend him. Our case was highly difficult to diagnose but due to Dr. Wolinsky’s expertise we were able to receive a correct diagnose after 4 months of other hospitals and other doctors.

Dr. Wolinsky called to discuss my surgeries on Dec. 5 and Dec. 6. I had seen him in person on Oct 2 but now that the surgery is definitive, he arranged this call. My sister and her husband were on the call and my sister later told me she is so glad she was on the call (and her husband). She has a better perspective, said he sounded really nice, explained things so (well, she said it sounds like it is well planned as best they can be ); Said she is glad I found him and went to him. I have a very rare tumor recurrence, complicated, complex. She also said he sounded confident. So God willing, things will go well and yes, we would recommend Center for Spine Health.

Expertise in a rare tumor requires someone like Dr Wolinsky but it’s also a blessing to have a surgeon who also shows not just excellence in his skills but heartwarming caring for his patients (and good sense of humor!)

Again, very pleasant and to the point. Although getting MRI results may be better to do thru telemedicine so avoid the trip to Chicago. But again, I don’t mind the trip.
