Baiata Nicholas MD

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. more

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. more
