I went in with knee pain and completely disconnected with why I was experiencing it. Richard asked me a few questions and he started to work on my knee right away. After a few mins of his routine my pain started to go away. He also provided some exercises that I could do on my own. I’m very happy and feeling thankful for Richards expertises.
Dr. Mak is a great doctor. Knowledgeable, attentive, and great touch for adjusting injuries. It’s also great that he knows how athletes and martial artists function through his own experience. I highly recommend him, book your appointment today!
I just spent my valuable time creating a profile, providing insurance and other personal information and scheduling a 3:30pm appointment online, only to be told that there is a glitch in the system and I can only be seen after 5:30pm next week. This is unacceptable. What a waste. I asked to be removed from their system and will look for a practice that understands the value of a client's time.
Dr Au looked at me with naked eyes and said the abject pain I was experiencing was completely normal and ordered Physical Therapy. No MRI, no nothing just PT and the PT is in the same office so not sure if that's a scam. After dumping $40 bucks per PT visit twice a week for many weeks ( and my pain is NOT subsiding) I go to another doctor who says "just so you know, I haven't even touched you y... More
Dr Au looked at me with naked eyes and said the abject pain I was experiencing was completely normal and ordered Physical Therapy. No MRI, no nothing just PT and the PT is in the same office so not sure if that's a scam. After dumping $40 bucks per PT visit twice a week for many weeks ( and my pain is NOT subsiding) I go to another doctor who says "just so you know, I haven't even touched you yet and you WILL be getting an MRI as you are in too much pain and for too long. Hallelujah some actual medical work and advice. I get the MRI the very next day and guess what - 3 herniated discs in the cervical spine and the one in the C6-C7 position is leaning on the nerves. Also I was experiencing hair loss, numbness in my feet, vision disturbances, and cognitive disturbances (these things were missed by my PCP and a dermatologist I went to when my hair started falling out so I am beginning to wonder if there are any decent doctors anymore) but I finally get diagnosed with a severe B12 deficiency which is super dangerous as neurological issues can be permanent and it was the cause of all the other things, but this deficiency affects the SPINAL CORD!!!! This is why in addition to the herniated discs, I had additional pressure and degeneration happening to my spinal cord because of the lack of and loss of B12. By the way I found this out when the spine surgeon from HSS who was about to do my disc replacement surgery (because, YES, my pain and desperation caused me to see a spine surgeon next because the pain that started on 12/25/18 was still excruciating by 4/16/19) and this surgeon wanted me to see a neurologist first. Can you imagine being incapacitated like this for 4 LONG MONTHS. If I hadn't gone to someone else who ordered the MRI and told me that even with a herniated disc leaning on the nerve, I should have been getting a little less uncomfortable in 4-6 weeks; I would still be dropping my $40 per copay for useless PT and Dr Au visits!! Boy do I wish I went to the spine specialist and spine surgeon first! Doctors - just because you've seen many things and circumstances, dont think that you can automatically KNOW what's going on for everyone you need to LISTEN and you are responsible for giving attentive and proper care and diagnoses. Big giant miss here, Dr Au Less
Dr Jessica Au was recommended to me by a dr Kim and it was a great experience for me, dr Au and her staff are just wonderful and would recommend them highly Mark Levinas
seeing dr fries for prenatal chiropractics. she is knowledgeable, attentive, and practices the webster method for pregnant women. my doctors attribute baby’s positioning to regular treatment from dr. fries. can’t recommend enough!
Have been going to Clinicube for about 6 months they are amazing 😉 very professional, office is a very welcoming place with great staff and doctors

As an avid practitioner of multiple martial arts, specifically Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, injuries and aches and pains are a part of my daily life. I'd been fighting a knee injury for about three months before Dr. Richard Mak and his Redcord regimens at Clinicube took it from basically unusable back to 100% in just over 10 visits. Before coming to Dr. Mak, I had tried the traditional methods of recovery; ice, rest, and foam rolling, much to no avail. Dr. Mak is knowledgeable, practical, fun to talk to, and his methods work. Whenever anyone asks me where I went to fix my knee, I always direct them to Clinicube. Less
Dr. Fries and Sadovnik have been so helpful and a pleasure to deal with.
Clinicube is an outstanding clinic, you feel home the moment you reach the reception desk. Everyone is friendly and very professional. Doctors explain to you everything about your problem before engaging any process to treat it. Now I am back on the basketball court thanks to Clinicube Team!!! Thank you very much

How do you thank someone who literally gives you your life back and your back life? After waking up one morning unable to move from inflamed thoracic discs my general doctor referred me to Clinicube’s amazing physiatrist Dr. Jessica Au who after an MRI to rule out anything sinister, referred me to physical therapist Dr. Richard Mak and this is when the magic began. I arrived barely able to walk and standup fully. Dr. Mak introduced me to Red Cord Therapy my first session. A zero gravity therapy which is strengthening my core and soothing my extreme backache and stiffness. During my PT sessions, I am being re-educated and given new “Tools” so I will minimize the possibility of another episode. I have tried to have Dr. Mak help me narrow down a specific cause of my injury but, he instills a “move forward” mentality which reduces my anxiety and gets me moving without fear. My daily exercises at home and work help to restore my mobility and offer pain relief without any medication. Amanda manages the core communication center when you arrive each visit and greets you with kindness and compassion, knowing her visitors are managing pain. Amanda’s gentle spirit lets you know your in the right place for treatment. Within 3 weeks of physical therapy under Dr. Mak and team, I am pain free. Rehabilitation is not easy and for me it takes a newly found commitment and willpower to get better. I have a long way to go but, Dr. Mak has literally given me my life back and in return, I want to tell everyone of his extraordinary skills. x, Gabriel Less
Dr. Richard Mak, at Clinicube, has been of exceptional service for physical therapy recovery for a back injury I had over the summer. He is methodical, professional, and effective. Sessions are structured well, exercises are explained so I can easily follow, and he explains why I am doing specific exercises. Would highly recommend Dr. Mak.
As a 44 year old man and lifelong martial artist, I have done serious damage to my body over the years.

As a 44 year old man and lifelong martial artist, I have done serious damage to my body over the years. Three bulged discs in my neck, blown out knees and a series of back problems made training difficult and extremely painful. There were things I thought I would never be able to do again. Thanks to Richard’s unique approach to mobility and rehab, I can now do all of the things I used to do, with little to no discomfort. I’ll never be a young man again but that doesn’t mean I can’t do all the things the young guns do. All thanks to Richard Mak and the team at Clinicube. Less
Have had chronic lower back pain from 2 prior surgeries. Richard was quick to identify the root cause and day one implemented a program aimed at pain relief through increased mobility through simple exercises and Red Cord therapy. My condition improved after only the second session. It has only been a few weeks but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Been going to Richard for the past couple of months to work on injuries, rehab, and maintenance related to high intensity fitness and martial arts. He’s excellent. First day magically healed my neck. Days after are all positive. Highly recommend.
I had a real eye opening session with Dr. Sullyvan. I now know that I have to change my course of actions, and drastically. I will come back to him next time, this is certain.
I helped a friend lay down 1200 square feet of flooring this past weekend. Total over 22 hours of work just the two of us. I have not been in the gym in years, I did not stretch and the movements were 100% foreign to my everyday body movements. As expected I was in pain.

I helped a friend lay down 1200 square feet of flooring this past weekend. Total over 22 hours of work just the two of us. I have not been in the gym in years, I did not stretch and the movements were 100% foreign to my everyday body movements. As expected I was in pain. My hamstrings, glutes, back, and body were extremely stiff and sore. The next day I came to see Dr. Lauren Fries for an adjustment and to try to remedy what was inevitable to occur thereafter, and as I expected she confirmed that I was not aligned. After my appointment not only did I feel brand new and less achy but the soreness and stiffness subsides within in one day where as in the past would have been almost an entire week. I have been seeing Dr. Fries for years and feel embarrassed that this is my first review, this should have been done years ago. I recommend if you are looking for a chiropractor to inquire in Dr. Fries. Less
Dr. Fries is an amazing Chiropractor, and knows where things are bothering me before I do. For those that are new to seeing a chiropractor, Dr. Fries will give you adjustments at your own pace, and move forward with what you are comfortable with. I always feel so much better and like a new person after I am done with my appointment. This is a doctor that really cares about her patients.
Excellent chiropractor. Love the office and location.

Dr. Sadovnik and Dr. Gomez are an amazing chiropractor and physical therapist team. Dr. Sadovnik has helped me alleviate years of chronic pain from two herniated disks. He understood my injury and created a custom approach towards helping me get better. Continuing that work with Dr. Gomez I have increased my strength and ability to be more active with out pain. I highly recommend!

When I was 17 years old I fractured three vertebrae in my lower back in a wrestling accident in High School. My injuries didn't heal properly because I was a know it all adolescent that did not follow the doctor's orders. As a young adult I tried everything to remedy the pain, but to no avail. I met Dr. Sadovnik about 10 years ago and he started treating me for the pain. It took some time, but I was getting something from him that I have never gotten before. He seemed to really care about my progress. For a long time I use drugs to numb the pain, which he did not support. In time, he helped me get off the drugs by gently educating me on my condition and assuring me, that if I followed his direction the pain would subside without surgery. It's been five years since I needed any pain medication and I now travel 50 miles to be treated by him since we moved to Smithtown, Long Island. Not all chiropractors are created equal. Thanks again Dr. Sadovnik! Less
I just started treatment @ The Center for Chiropractic & Decompression and very impressed with very knowledgeable, professional and caring staff. Dr. Sadovnik and Dr. Gomez are an excellent practitioners and I hoping that soon I will get a complete pain relief.

I really thought it would be awesome to come and see what they could do for me specifically, they may be good but there are major drawbacks: they do not accept major insurances from gov't, they overcharge >110 dollars for a visit at least, short 1/2 hour visits (max) and no real relief in two weeks. I think it is a place that is there because of marketing more than anything else.

I have been going to Dr. Fries for two years or so with really great results. I first came because I was having serious and concerning loss of height, rather dramatically for my age. I also had a couple of bulging disks and loss of bone which often resulted in massive shooting pain in my lower back. She's really great at traditional chiropractic care, such as alignment, but her decompression work is really amazing. The Center has all the right equipment for really intense chiropractic work and that makes all the difference. I have regained the two inches I lost(Really! no exaggeration) plus everything moves so much better. The movement and range of my neck is greatly improved and my yoga practice has benefitted greatly. I just feel better overall. I had always been skeptical of some of the claims of chiropractic doctors, but I have seen clear benefits while going to The Center. Of course, being consistant and maintaining a good diet is critical as well. Dr. Fries is well versed in holistic care and makes sound recommendations for getting the most out of the work she does. The office is very pleasant and peaceful. The hot tea is a nice touch. I love going here and look forward to every visit! Less
This is a great place, I have been a patient for 7 years and this is a very caring, well run establishment that's patient oriented and helps tremednously in reducing pain and increasing wellness. Actually, 5 stars is not enough as this place is a ten star facility and the doctor is incredible. Thank you so much for your wonderful care and help. I can't recommend this place enough.

I have continued to seek treatment from Dr. Sadovnik and Dr. Fries at the Center because I know what to expect with every visit: Excellent Care and Pain management, outstanding bed side manner and an overall feeling of wellness. The Center is conveniently located near flat iron and Madison Square park so no matter where I am in the city, it is easy to come in for a visit. Dr Sadovnik really cares about each patient and their individual recovery which makes going the whole process of going to the doctor feel a little less sterile and a little more personalized. I couldn't reccommend The Center and Dr. Sadovnik any more highly to anyone seeking pain management and excellent chiropractic care! Less

After about two or three months of treatment (laser, decompression, specific exercises) the pain is gone, my back is stable and above all I made major progress in my physical fitness, lifting double the whight of what I did before the treatment. Today I am not only able to do any sport I want without being concerned about having pain, I increased or even doubled my performance in it. Thanks so much!! Less
