Osteopathic Medicine Igor Beneditskiy D.O. in Brooklyn
I came with lower back pain, not severe though. I have a history of herniated disc between L4-L5, had surgery done for it. And the surgeon told me that I Must not have any adjustments done. So Dr. Beneditskiy listened to me really carefully, took his time, then sent me for a massage. First they applied some electrods, which I dont mind at all. And then the fun began: a person who did massage so much pressure and strength on my poor back so I felt that he is squeezing all my organs out (and I am not heavy at all, I am on a slim side, so they dont need to use any strength on me at all), he used his elbows too, I am sorry but that didnt feel right. ( I mentioned to the person that it hurts and that my back feels on fire, and he said that it should be like that), then the doctor came, and was going to do adjustments. I repeated to him that I must not have any adjustments. He said that these are different from Chiropractic.So at night it felt so horrible: I could not lay on my back, the whole back felt like one huge hematoma, that even slight touch would hurt like Hell!!! I didnt sleep, and could not even move my shoulder blades, everything hurt Horribly. It hurt for over a week. Now it is more than 2 weeks passed, and I have more pain then I started before the massage, and in more places.Sorry, that was aweful :(((
At first I thought the admin staff was so thoughtful and considerate and had given me an appt for an emergency the same week even though it was full. However, after 3rd visit dr canceled my appt due to his emergency. After that I could not schedule for 5 weeks!!!!Still to date, I am getting hung up on, messages are not returned and I even waited on hold for 34 minutes to speak to dr after which the line went dead with out a return call.All this after they had asked me to make this dr my primary care. Are these people serious??

2021-07-20Amazing doctor. Super happy that i switched to him. Really cares about his patients. I understood my pain more clearly, prevented future pain and felt better in one session. He’s also a lighthearted funny guy which is a nice change.

2020-10-19Doctor Igor Beneditskiy is awesome doctor. Besides that he is very knowledgeable , he cares about his patients. Being in America more than 25 years, I met only a few doctors with the same qualities that doctor Beneditsky has . I had pain in my neck and thanks to help that I got in his office, I am feeling much better even so I was getting physical therapy before that did not help me. His office staff is terrific too.Thank you, doctor for your professional skills and outstanding personality

2020-09-08Very knowledgeable and professional doctor! Treated me with the classic osteopathic approach of treating the patient as a whole and not just the symptoms I came with. And the symptoms that I did come with (upper back/neck pain) were completely resolved and more! Would 100% recommend him to anybody!Thank you Dr Beneditskiy!

2021-02-24Dr. Beneditskiy has been my doctor for the last 14 years. He has treated me successfully for everything...from the most minor ailments and aches and pains to serious issues like torn rotator cuff, herniated discs and heart palpitations. Wise, compassionate and full of humor, he is an exceptional doctor and an unparalleled osteopath. I give Dr. Beneditskiy my highest recommendation.

2020-01-20Igor Beneditskiy is a professional, knowledgeable and caring doctor. A few years ago my legs hurt. I went to different doctors for a year and they could not understand what was wrong with me and how to help. I changed several doctors and then came to Dr. Beneditskiy. He understood my problem and fixed it in a few days. After that, my legs did not hurt. It looks like a miracle. Thats what a real doctor should be. Thank you!

2019-05-02Sorry to see that some people are not happy with Dr. BENEDITSKIY. I cant believe that its possible. Im his patient for over 3 years now and I cant say anything bad about my experiences with him. He treats his patients like family, he spends time with you and answers any questions you might have. First time i saw him for back pain and he fixed me in one shot! Just about 2 years ago I started having shouder pain due to my work.I was facing a surgery. The pain was beyond any descriptions. He gave me shot in it, and immediately pain went away. Shots lasting 6-7 months. But shots are not a solution. But I had no choice since my work requires to use my hands a lot. Few days ago i woke up with such pain that i couldnt lift my arm. I couldnt even go to work. I tried to go for PT but i still couldnt move it. Finally i called Dr.Beneditskiy and he took me as an emergency. Doctor did some tricks on me, and 95% of pain is gone. He is absolutely magical doctor with golden hands. God bless him. If you have any problems, give him a shot. I know that reviews are good to read but maybe this doctor will the perfect one for you. I really believe he is!

2018-02-06I was so impressed by Doctor Beneditskiy. He is a professional, very carrying about his patients, very educated. His Assistant Olga is doing great procedures and manipulations with back pain. Right after I leaft the office ( I spent there 1,5 hours, including 10 minutes waiting line) ,His secretary is also very polite and patient. I called my friends and relatives to share how I was impressed and referred them to the doctor. Actually Im not the one who loves to write reviews , but in this case I couldnt miss the opportunity . Great job, thank you, doctor!

2012-09-28I strained my back a while ago during fishing. As an active person I was frustrated because could not ride my bike and swim. My friend suggested to see Dr. Beneditskiy. I was a little skeptical at first place as never use osteopathic treatment before. .After first appointment which I did not have any problem to schedule I was pleased and happy. After first session my pain reduced significantly, I was able to walk with ease.After third appointment with Dr. Beneditskiy I was able to ride my bike and enjoy swimming in a last summer days.Dr. Beneditsiy is very professional and has carrying personality. I was comfortable to trust him with my pain and have a good outcome after just few visits.I would recommend him and his practice to my friends without hesitance.Thank you to Dr. Beneditskiy and his practice.Oskar

2015-03-13I race cars and I passed 63, must be in good shape to survive the g-forces during turns and extremely hard braking.For a couple of years I was visiting Dr. Beneditsky with lower back and some other osteopathic problems. He helped me from the first procedure, I could not turn my body at waist even at 45 degrees and I immediately saw his attentiveness to my problems, I saw his humane willingness to help me with my back problems, I admitted his highly professional attitude.He is always giving worth advices how to avoid or at least lower the stress on my back shoving exercises or advising to ride a bike instead of walking, swimming, etc... He is an athlete himself.Before finding him on Google through his positive feed backs, I visited a few really good doc. who also helped me a lot, but not as much and deep as Dr. Beneditsky.Recently, when he was on vacation, I came to quite a good doc. on Bay Ridge with a shoulder problem from constant use of computer mouse. I visit that doc. twice, but without really good result. As soon as Dr. Beneditsky came from vacation I was in his office. An hour and a half later, when all the procedures were finished, I felt no pain in my shoulder. I was afraid that the pain will come in a day or two, but a week gone by, ... no pain.I visit him a few times more to secure the success.He is also one of the best Family Doctors, extremely knowledgeable and loves innovations.He loves to cure people. He is not a doctor because the professions is lucrative, but because he loves to help.He is a man who was born to be a doctor and that is our advantage and we have to use his talent.
