Dr. Wolinsky and his staff exceeded my expectations with the level of care and compassion they provided. They answered all of my questions and provided a very clear treatment plan prior to surgery. The surgery went better than I expected and I am now six weeks into recovery and I feel great. I cannot thank them enough for the care that they have provided me.

After struggling with back and leg pain for months, an MRI revealed a melanocytic schwannoma tumor. Its size and placement on the S1 nerve meant that the surgeons in my plan were not comfortable operating and referred me to a research hospital. That’s how I came across Dr. Wolinsky at the Center of Spine Heath, Northwestern Memorial Hospital. At the very first appointment that I had with Dr. Wolinsky, he took time to answer all my questions and had a plan for my surgery, which he scheduled as early as he could. The surgery was a success, and Dr. Wolinsky, Dr. Najib El Tecle, and the whole team of doctors and nurses were very attentive and caring during my recovery. I am very grateful for all the care and professionalism that I had had during my recovery. Thank you to Dr. Wolinsky and his team for everything that they did to help me.

Dr Wolinsky was very knowledgeable and showed great compassion during my phone visit. He took the time to gather information from me, shared his evaluation, gave his recommendation and answered all of my questions. He never made me feel rushed and explained things in a manner that was easy to understand. He identified and explained information about my condition that had not been shared by other surgeons previously.
