Nucca George Gertner

Started with Dr. Gertner in 2013, after experiencing severe neck and low back pain due to car accident and wear & tear. I have to be honest, I have never experienced a chiropractic adjustment like this but IT WORKS! Within a few months, the pain I had experienced for the past 3 years was finally relieved. Truly amazing. 3 years later, my husband and I still see Dr. Gertner and feel a significant difference after each adjustment.
If you’re new here, trust the process. It has made a huge difference in my life. Thank you Dr. Gertner!

I’ve never felt so uncomfortable or pressured by a dr before in my life. This man is extremely unprofessional and misleading. It is possible that his technique works, but unfortunately he is shady in his initial consultation about the cost and time commitment for his care plan. He lures clients in with a free consultation and barely mentions pricing other than the 90 $ cost for an adjustment. After the second consultation his tune was a little different, and i felt like I was in a timeshare sales pitch. I felt pressured to pay into a 2,000 dollar plan which «could» cure my neck pain. He then let’s you know that each session is actually 240 with the mandatory x rays and scans unless you buy a 10 or 25 package on the spot (no payment plan option.) I let him know that I was indeed still interested (I was!!!) as I believed in his product but that I was frustrated his team didn’t let me know I would need to come 2x a week right away, as I’m beginning a busy season at work and I won’t be able to travel from NYC to white plains 2x a week until the end of May. He got visibly annoyed and my wife and I awkwardly walked out. As my mom went in for her consultation he came out and stood in front of me while I sat and waited for her, and continued to pressure me, saying that no one comes back after 2 months and that my neck problems can not wait. I told him he was making me uncomfortable and pressured feeling and he eventually backed off but it was too late. No ethical Doctor should be needing to pressure clients. If he has a good product he should be honest and upfront about the costs, period. This may or not he an actual bad product but he himself is a sales person more than a doctor. I don’t trust his intentions.

My 85 year old mother was rear ended while she was stopped at a traffic light. She was in terrible pain for months and my sister took her to the MD for treatment which consisted of pt and injections into her vertebrae. Nothing seemed to help and this energetic elderly women was relegated to a walker. I brought her to see Dr. Gertner and after the first month her pain was decreased and she was using a cane. After the second month she was off of the cane and her pain was decreased even more. She is still in treatment and is back to her self with minimal discomfort. Dr. Gertner knows what he is doing and uses a much gentler chiropractic technique. I can recommend him without reservation.

I was mislead at a community event about what the initial appointment consisted of. I’m happy that I only donated money to Make A Wish and didn’t give Dr Gertner money. I don’t believe Dr Gertner and his staff are truthful. I will not be returning for a second visit.

Someone representing this business placed its unmailed promotional flyer in my curbside mailbox today, and I think it can be assumed that they have blanketed my neighborhood and others in a similar fashion. Aside from the fact that this is not even a local enterprise, I consider such a advertising tactic is an unethical violation of privacy. Furthermore, and most importantly, it’s illegal!

Very disappointed in the treatments as well as the doctors professional and financial ethics. I didn’t have any relief with the treatments or anyway to prove it was doing anything after 6 months of going 3 times a week. He is a good sales person and a lost medical professional.
They do not take insurance and they will only work with you if you sign a long term contract with a commitment to pay on the upwards of around $ 4 — $ 5k for the treatment, two things they won’t mention over the phone.
He has zero compassion or understanding for people’s finances and couldn’t care less and really takes advantage of peoples health situations — claiming to fix most everything. The care was not customized based on results — it was based on visits, after x amount of visits then we will do step 2. The visibility into the treatment success through diagnostics was minimal. He went through several partners during the time I was there and on several occasions mixed up notes in my file with other patients. Upon canceling my contract I worked out a payment plan for the remaining balance with the front desk assistants, however he didn’t keep to it and charged it all without any heads up, almost $ 1k dollars, after I had perfectly paid throughout the course of going to him.
The doctor talks about how is making over a million dollars a year and his country club lifestyle. For him it’s all about the money or at least that is how he comes off. I’m all about business but when you are in the medical field sensitivity and compassion come to mind as the better qualities to exude.
I would not recommend him.

First visit ok quiet expensive. but will continue to review as time goes by…
