Dr. Kalika and his team are amazing! I was unable to walk for more than 10 mins and spent months going to other doctors who could not figure out what was wrong. After one appointment with Dr. Kalika he was able to diagnose my nerve injury and after a quick procedure with him, I can finally walk again!

Thank you Noah!
I love diagnosing nerve entrapments . They are usually under-diagnosed as it requires astute skills, high resolution ultrasound machine, detailed knowledge of anatomy , experience and a little bit of passion:)
Nothing is more rewarding as to solve a puzzle and cure the patient with one ultrasound guided procedure. Dr. Borsgol has amazing hands!

I’ve had plantar fasciitis for almost 2 years and trained for marathons and ultras through it while trying everything to fix it. I finally went to NYDN and within 2 months, I was pain free thanks to Dr. Kalika and his team and just finished a marathon with my best time in years!

Tech Based Approach Had ACL surgery last year and rehab elsewhere just wasn’t cutting it. My surgeon actually mentioned Dr. Kalika’s clinic for their tech-based approach. We’ve been doing EMTT, Kineo strength testing, and INDIBA (hope I got that right). I’m writing this because for the first time my knee feels stronger than pre-injury, not just 'okay'. If anyone’s post-op and frustrated with slow progress – this place is worth it. Not cheap, but worth it.

My passion is hiking the peaks of the northeast, pushing my limits and enjoying the mountains with my hiking buddies. So it was a sad situation when I found myself with a severe foot injury which put me on the sidelines for several months. Initial treatment with a podiatrist, x-rays and MRI, and multiple PT doctors were not getting me anywhere and just walking around town remained a painful, hobbling experience.I didn’t think that they had the diagnosis right. I was fortunate to find Dr. Lev Kalika and his innovative practice using all the latest technologies. During an initial hour long evaluation using his high-resolution diagnostic ultrasound setup, Dr. Kalika was able to identify the severe plantar fasciitis and multiple soft tissue tears in my foot and recommend a customized treatment plan based on extracorporeal shock wave therapy. Once a week for seven weeks, Dr Kalika used his three different shock wave treatment devices, pinpointing the treatments using the high-resolution ultrasound. I had achieved a 90-95% pain free condition under his care. At this point, I began seeing Daniella who guided me through a physical therapy program to get me back to full function. Daniella’s patient and no-nonsense approach has gotten me back into the mountains that I love. I feel so fortunate to have found the incredible caring team at NYDNRehab that have done wonders for me.

If you lose hope because of the constant pain, this clinic is the place where you can get back your normal life and return to your well being. I even can’t count all the multiple manipulations and techniques that the doctors of the clinic did specially for me and it worked so well that I forgot my many years of suffering from back and joint pain. I can now avoid surgery, something I thought was inevitable. I’m beyond grateful to the entire team.

Gait rehab Came in for gait rehab and tried neuromuscular therapy. The techniques were pretty advanced and actually helped. Everyone at the office was nice, just had a hard time getting someone on the phone a couple of times. Overall, a good experience.

Finally a Doctor who ask all the right questions, listens to the answers and then makes reasoned decisions that are focused and meaningful to my care. Never felt rushed at anytime in his office. I now feel that I truly have a clinician interested in a positive outcome in my health. Can’t appreciate it enough!

Was visiting NYC and hurt my ankle walking way too much 😩 Found this clinic online and figured I’d try it. The therapy itself was solid, Dr. Kalika knows his stuff. But ngl, getting there was stressful. Google Maps sent me in circles and there’s no easy parking unless you wanna pay $$$. If you’re not local, just be ready for the hassle.

I went into Dr. Lev Kalikas office 2 months ago with horrible nerve pain in three different places on my right leg. No other doctor took the time to extensively sonogram all of my nerves to find the issues like he did. Once he knew what the issues were, we scheduled hyrdra dissection with him and dr. Brosgol to free the untrapped nerves. 2 weeks from the procedure and im almost completely pain free. Highly recommend you go to him! He brought me back to life!

Dr.Kalika has been highly recommended by my cousin who speaks greatly of him. I had two PRP injections and multiple different physical therapist but my shoulder was not getting any better. Dr. Kalika is a very experienced clinician with great clinical and imaging skills. He did image my shoulder blade and diagnosed me with scapular instability, which was primary to a small rotator cuff tear that everyone was focusing on. Then, Dr.Kalika performed some high-tech 3D analysis of my shoulder blade. He then treated me with different shockwaves and sent me to his PT Michael, who only focused on training my ribs and shoulder blade. It's been four months and I am back to the gym lifting weights. Definitely give them a try if you have chronic shoulder pain.

I hurt my ankle during a hiking fall and couldn’t walk without pain. Dr. Lev Kalika used ultrasound to pinpoint the problem and treated it with shockwave therapy and fascial work. Now I’m pain-free and back on my feet.

Sprained ankles are often times ignored until symptomatic. I am glad we caught it on time and it worked for you. Keep doing you home work exercises.

Living with EDS has never been easy, but Dr. Lev Kalika really helped me turn things around. At his clinic, he started with a thorough diagnosis, including an ultrasound . I was really surprised—no one had ever done that before starting shockwave therapy. It made me realize how detailed and precise his approach is. We combined physical therapy, prolotherapy injections, and shockwave therapy, and I finally feel like I have control over my symptoms. It’s made such a difference in my life

I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Kalika and the incredible care my husband has received. For years, he struggled with pain in his knees and back and we had given up hope. Then we met Dr. Kalika, and my husband's life took a turn for the better! From the very first appointment, Dr. Kalika's professionalism, compassion, and expertise stood out. He took the time to thoroughly understand my husband's condition, explaining everything in detail and addressing all of our concerns. His customized treatment plan was nothing short of miraculous. What sets Dr. Kalika apart is his innovative approach, state of the art equipment, combining the latest advancements in medicine with a personal touch. Thanks to his guidance and care, my husband is now able to live without pain. I highly recommend Dr. Kalika to anyone searching for a doctor who genuinely cares and delivers exceptional results. He didn’t just treat symptoms—he gave my husband his life back. Thank you, Dr. Kalika, for your dedication and expertise. You and your staff are truly a gift to your profession!

I went to Dr. Kalika with chronic shoulders and back pain. After three treatments I feel no pain, I can move my neck again. I was trying several medical offices for couple of years with no help and proper diagnosis. I am so grateful to finally find right Dr and live with no pain Thank you Dr Kalika I would recommend this place for everyone who want to have healthy life.

Dr. Kalika is one-of-one. Over the past few years, I’ve been battling with a complex lower back and calf/ankle injury that was progressively getting worse. I visited countless professionals (physiotherapists, podiatrists, chiropractors, osteopaths, sports doctors) across the country with little success. No one was able to properly diagnose or treat the root cause of my injury until I met Dr. Kalika. He treats the body as one interconnected chain instead of looking at each part in isolation and is able to see what others can’t as a musculoskeletal ultrasound radiology expert. I haven’t come across anyone like him before and am back on the road to recovery thanks to him and his team.

Dr. Kalika, along with his team, have been the only people to successfully help with my EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome). This practice is unlike any i’ve ever been to before; most physicians have little to no idea on how to treat someone with EDS and stick with typical methods of pain management. I thought I would be in pain the rest of my life, but Dr. Kalika’s knowledge and forms of therapy have truly changed my life. One of the greatest qualities a physician can have is the ability to grow with your field, which is something he excels at. If you’re struggling with EDS I very highly recommend you make an appointment.

Dr. Kalika was very though all in his diagnosis and provided excellent treatment in getting rid of my pain of my back and shoulder pain. He has the passion for helping people that most doctors lack. I recommend for anyone with pain to give him a chance and you will be very satisfied.

I had chronic disabling shoulder pain after playing a lot volleyball last summer. The MRI was completely negative . I have been to three physical therapist, received three PRP injections and had zero results after a year of treatment. I couldn’t workout and the pain was weird coming and going on its own unprovoked by any specific movement. A new coworker recommended to see Dr. Kalika who solved his complicated shoulder problem. I went to see Dr. Kalika without any expectations, but I was quite surprised with his clinical and diagnostic ultrasonography skills which he combines with a sophisticated motion recognition technology . He diagnosed me with scapular dyskenisis and suprascapular nerve palsy which no doctors mentioned to me before. Dr. Kapustina treated me with ultrasound guided neuromodulation for the nerve pain. I also had two months of pt with DNS methodology and very interesting equipment that activates and strengthens under-active muscles. I started to feel improvement in four weeks after which my shoulder was getting better each week. It has been eleven weeks now and I feel I am ninety percent better. Strongly recommend to visit Dr.Kalika and his team if you have shoulder pain .
