“The best doctor ever”

Dr. Panagos is a class act—always staying up on the latest developments to help his patients. He has a warm spirit and incredible bedside manner. He is an extremely patient and kind doctor whose judgment I trust.

“One of the best ddoctors in New York!”

Dr. Panagos kept my condition of acute sciatica in remission for over one year. He always explained the difference between the surgical solution, the cortisone solution and his solution. At one point when I consulted with one of the top HSS surgeons, the surgeon told me ,"if you can stay without symptoms you are safe in Dr. Panagos' hands

“Amazing doctor--easily the most knowledgeable, professional, and nicest I've ever met!”

Dr. Panagos is extremely thorough and knowledgeable about spinal medicine. He explained to me the mechanics of my injury, how I should think about the healing process and how to best recover. He is also very nice and makes a sensitive/scary topic of spinal damage seem approachable with his positive attitude and perspective!

“Excellent. Dr Panagos is respectful and very knowledgeable”

Dr Panagos is thoughtful and have been able to provide valuable insights into a variety of conditions. He has an excellent holistic view, which is uncommon among traditional physicians. His therapy suggestions are practical and always on point, and so is his diagnosis. He very much cares about patients and discusses current treatment options and longer term prevention care. He is great. I trust him.

“Gold standard for pain management/integrative medicine - a rare find!”

Dr. Panagos is the best doctor I've ever had. He's incredibly comprehensive, knowledgeable, kind, caring and honest. Thanks to his growth factor therapy treatments, I've avoided back surgery and am able to do the things I love like dancing and biking. He healed my partner's stubborn frozen shoulder with laser therapy and has treated countless friends and co-workers when other doctors couldn't. His staff is professional and very helpful.

“Cured my pain”

I came to Dr. Panagos in extreme pain caused by a damaged disc in my back. He treated me with kindness and understanding and I felt I was in good hands. He took the time to diagnose my problem and gave me a shot in the problem area. The next day my pain started to ease and in a few more days I was pain free. I had a few follow up appointments with him as he checked my progress. That was almost 20 years ago! I have never had that pain again.

“Sympathetic, upbeat treatment for excruciating sciatic pain, now gone”

I arrived in so much pain that I couldn't move, sleep or think. Dr. Panagos controlled the pain and prescribed physical therapy, which he monitored. He spent time offering detailed knowledge that helped with recovery. Through the course of therapy the pain diminished and normal movement returned. I have a greater understanding of the problem and an arsenal of exercises to mitigate or even prevent future occurrences.

“Top notch care, a wealth of knowledge and experience”

I am happy to finally thank you for a recommendation you offered to me in January, 2019. I was experiencing long-term hip pain for which surgery did not seem indicated (nor was it desired!), You recommended that I might start by trying an anti-inflammatory diet: strict abstinence from certain foods for 18 days and then, if desired, re-entering them one at a time and watching for any reaction. The regimen was self-sustaining right from the beginning - I felt (and continue to feel!) lighter and brighter and years younger. I am not rigid with this regimen and find that when I do try different foods, the response from my body is very clear and easy to read. I lost about 25 lbs. in the first 9 months and am at what I feel to be an appropriate weight, which has been maintained without effort for the year and 9 months that have followed (including over a year of “sheltering at home”). And yes, the hip pain has been significantly reduced and is not interfering with my activity.
