I took my dad to see Dr. kohler and he was amazing!! He was patient, caring and really took his time to listen to my dads problems and answer all the questions that we had. My dad has had back pain for the past 3 months, and nothing has helped until we saw Dr. Kohler. The doctor gave him an epidural and he finally has no pain. The office is so clean and beautiful and the receptionist was so helpful with giving us an appointment right away. I’m so happy that we were referred to Dr. Kohler.

I have had the privilege of consulting with Dr. Kohler for my pain management needs for a year now, and I can't express my gratitude enough for the excellent care and expertise I received. Dr. Kohler is a true professional in his field, and his commitment to patient well-being is evident in every aspect of the care he provides. From our initial consultation to the treatment plan's implementation, Dr. Kohler displayed exceptional knowledge and a deep understanding of pain management. He took the time to thoroughly explain my condition and treatment options, ensuring that I felt informed and comfortable every step of the way. What truly sets Dr. Kohler apart is his compassionate and patient-centric approach. He actively listened to my concerns, addressing all my questions and tailoring a treatment plan that was best suited to my unique needs. His attention to detail and dedication to improving my quality of life are remarkable. Additionally, the staff at Ospina Medical are always professional and friendly, creating a welcoming and supportive environment. Scheduling appointments and managing paperwork was a breeze, thanks to their efficient administrative team. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kholer and Ospina Medical to anyone seeking a top-tier pain management specialist. Their expertise, compassion, and commitment to patient care are truly outstanding. I'm immensely grateful for the positive impact they've had on my health and well-being. Thank you, Dr. Kohler, and the entire team at Ospina Medical!

I fly all the way from Oregon to see Dr. Kohler every couple years for my PRP injections. He and his team are excellent. Not only are they good at what they do by traditional medicine standards, they are dedicated to having a holistic perspective about the client's health and wellness goals. They're genuinely friendly and caring in you feeling your best. My goal is to avoid getting a knee replacement and these PRP treatments are working!

Dr Kohler is one of those rare doctors who relates to you as a fellow human being, not just as a patient. He successfully treated two severely torn rotator cuffs for which I was told I needed surgery - but healed using PRP. I've just gotten another PRP treatment in some new injury sites and am looking forward to more great results. So thankful for the options that regenerative medicine offers.

Dr. Kohler spent a lot of time with me exploring my medical history and problems so that if and when necessary, he will be able to help me with my pain! His PA or Nurse Assistant and his whole team were very nice, patient and helpful taking down all of my necessary information. I left feeling very well taken care of.

I will start out with Ospina Medical is the only place I will ever go to. I have been seeing Doctor Kohler for about 7 years now and Doctor Kohler goes above and beyond to make sure his patients are taken care of no matter what the circumstances are. Eight years again I couldn’t work. He gave me my life back and I work every day now and enjoy time with all my children. Doctor Kohler and his staff are truly amazing I cannot thank them enough.

I have suffered for nearly a decade with degenerative disc disease, a hip injury, and two bad knees and arthritis and ridiculously bad cartilage. I have seen so many doctors that I can't even remember a lot of them - and some I remember with vitriol. When Dr. Kohler opened his own practice, I followed him. He is genuinely compassionate, and really listens which is a skill many doctors haven't acquired. Over the years he has given me the opportunity to live my life without so much pain all time. I have reached a point where I have made a lot of changes in my life which has helped reduce my pain but I'm still going to see Dr. Kohler to make sure I can continue to enjoy life without incredible pain everyday . He's really one of the few doctors in my life that I feel *really improved my life.* Most doctors I would never return to. He and Ospina is a practice I will never turn away from. If you feel like you're in the bowels of hell because of your constant, chronic pain? Go see Dr. Kohler. He is not a magician, just an excellent doctor. His staff is equally fine and very helpful and kind.

Saw Dr Maniam to treat two herniated discs and had a wonderful experience throughout. The front desk checked me in swiftly and had a short 2 minute wait before the nurse called my name to begin my visit. Romina was super thoughtful of my pain. I then met Dr. M who walked me through the procedure and explained my options in great length. Much appreciated the face time with the doc which provided a sense of comfort. Following the procedure, both Romina and Dr. M showered me with great care and gave me ample time to rest. The doctor himself rolled me outside in a wheelchair - 5 stars to him! Had such a great experience and would highly recommend! Also the office is beautiful and located in a nice area in NYC. Huge thanks to the Ospina Medical team!

Dr Matthew Kohler is the greatest doctor I ever met, love him. I started seeing Dr Kohler over 4 years when he was at Hudson Medical & followed him when he started his practice - Ospina Medical. At Ospina Medical, I feel at home, every staff is very welcoming & accommodating, they all make both me & my husband feel very welcomed. All staff are super polite, super sensitive to your needs & pain, attentive & very approachable & always has a listening ear no matter what I have to say - “ Thank you Ospina Medical staff, I appreciate you all ”. Dr Matthew Kohler, thank you for being who you are & taking great care of me & my family. We appreciate you & your practice. I will never forget the first time we met, your demeanor sealed our patient-doctor relationship for life because of your greatness & your ability to precisely diagnose & treat my multiple chronic pain issues, you have always been & continue to be a gentleman, very respectful of all humankind & very accommodating. I pray all continues to work well for you in all aspects of your live 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾. For as long as you’re in practice, I will forever be a devoted patient.

The whole practice is excellent! Everyone makes you feel welcome! Jackie the Administrator, Ramina the assistant, and Dr. Maniam himself I know I’m missing others… sorry). Dr. Maniam has great listening skills and has done an outstanding job at answering all of my questions thoroughly and easing my anxiety. I fully trust him and would never go to another pain management doctor other than him. So far I’ve had two epidurals in the C6-C7 area and a few trigger point injections in the surrounding muscles and all of them have been administered successfully. If you’re looking for someone that is really good at their job and genuinely cares… Dr. Maniam is your guy!

The service feels more attentive, Dr. Kohler is friendly and extremely qualified. I also very much appreciate the attention to therapeutic options that are not surgical. It makes so much sense to try options that are less invasive and less risky in terms of complications first.

I have been dealing with a chronic foot/ankle injury since March 2020 and Dr. Maniam is the first doctor that has given me hope for recovery. I received PRP injections in early January and although I am uncertain how the procedure will ultimately turn out, I cannot recommend Dr. Maniam and his team enough. The entire office staff and patient experience is amazing, and I have seen almost every foot doctor in the tri-state area so I have a lot to compare to! Dr. Maniam is caring, kind, and patient and his passion for helping his patients really shines through. Even if PRP is unsuccessful for me, I would still recommend this office to anyone who has tried all the conventional forms of healing chronic pain and is looking for a beacon of hope.

Dr. Kohler is an amazing physician! He was able to help me with my knee and shoulder pain and I am now back on the tennis courts. I chose Regenexx instead of surgery as I didn't want to risk making my pain worse and I didn't want to have a long recovery. We ended up doing Regenexx stem cells and PRP for my shoulder and knee for torn tendons and although it has only been a few months I am pain-free! I can't wait to see how much better I feel over the summer. I would highly recommend Ospina Medical and their entire team for people looking to avoid surgery and get back to their active lifestyle. Thanks again!

I’ve gone to Dr Kohler for years and even followed him from his last place to Ospina, he is truly one if the best Doctors i’ve ever met. His patience and compassion are a breath of resh air vs other doctors in NYC and the US. He reminds me of what I thought medical professionals were like growing up before I realized that they just want to move you in and out and on to the next patient. As someone dealing with a complex pain problem, Dr Kohler is always willing yo listen take the time and go above and beyond to find a solution, including talking after hours. The staff at Ospina are terrific, very responsive and available. Everyone there arrives on time for appointments and little to no wait. I also like how they keep up with the changes in treatment options as medicine is evolving (stem cells for example). I couldn’t recommend him enough.

I was one week away from knee replacement surgery when I discovered Regenexx. I immediately postponed the surgery to look deeper into this procedure. I had the stem cell / PRP treatment by Dr.Kohler and four months later went back for another round of PRP. At 3 months post procedure the pain and swelling was getting better. At 6 months I was pain free.I’m so happy I did this! Would I recommend Regenexx at Ospina Medical? Absolutely! There staff is knowledgeble and caring and Dr.Kohler is simply amazing! I will forever be grateful.

Dr Kohler was my doctor at another practice, but I was so glad when he helped co-start his own place. It was further away from me, but completely worth it. He listens, he helps and he cares. He doesn't just throw medications at it, he focus on solutions and longer lasting relief. Also, extra bonus, the entire staff from the front desk to procedure rooms are extremely personable and professional. I don't know if there is a limit on words, but I could go on forever about them, highly recommend Ospina Medical to everyone. Trustworthy and effective, this is the place to go. I have lower back pain and wouldn't even consider going elsewhere.

Dr. Kohler at Ospina Medical has been my LIFE SAVER. When I first saw him, I had seen dozens of "top" spinal surgeons for years, but was still in crippling pain, without any hope of feeling better, and a shelf full of pain meds that did nothing. Dr. Kohler allowed me to go back to living my life to the fullest in a matter of weeks, no pain meds required. He always takes the time to listen and consider before discussing treatments, and I never feel rushed or pressured into anything. The office is beautiful, and everyone is beyond friendly and helpful. I am so grateful for Dr. Kohler and the entire staff at Ospina Medical, I could not possibly recommend them any higher.

I've suffered from chronic low back pain and degenerative discs for many years. I'm very active and wanted to avoid any type of surgery so I learned to live with the pain. I heard of Regenexx from a friend and decided to pursue intradiscal stem cell therapy for my low back. Dr. Maniam and Dr. Kohler were amazing! They were able to provide anesthesia for the procedure in their office and I walked home that same day after the procedure with almost no pain. They also had some warm snacks waiting for me when I woke up. The staff was super helpful and made the entire process very easy. If you have low back issues, are active, and want to avoid surgery or living with pain, Ospina Medical is the place to go.

I have been a patient of Dr. Kohler’s long before he opened the doors at Ospina Medical in 2020. I followed him from a previous practice due to his excellent bedside manner that was nowhere else to be found. As a patient who has dealt with chronic pain for several years in both my back and hips as well as more sensitive areas such as interstitial cystitis of the bladder and more recently my severe endometriosis diagnosis, Dr. Kohler has always been understanding and compassionate during these difficult and painful times. You never have to worry about anyone rushing you out the door. He takes time to answer all of your questions while also suggesting alternatives if they apply. He also plays close attention to detail especially when it comes to imaging. There have been times where he has discovered different findings on my scans that other specialists have glossed over which have ended up being critical to pinpointing the cause and root of some of my pain. Like, I stated before... I have not met another specialist in pain management who would provide that level of quality care. The rest of his staff are just as amazing. Jackie, his medical assistant helped Dr. Kohler and his partner, Dr. Maniam ... open Ospina Medical in the beginning. She played a role in setting the bar high for excellent patient care. Then last but not least is Reyna, Ospina’s gem of a medical receptionist. There are not enough words to explain how awesome she is. The front desk staff are always your first impression with how your experience will go. So, just know that once you are greeted by Reyna... you are in good hands. She has been there for me on numerous occasions and I could not be more grateful. Ospina’s staff is the best! I highly recommend Ospina. 10/10.

Ospina Medical is my go to practice for Regenexx regenerative medicine treatments. Dr. Kohler and Dr. Maniam are experts in PRP and stem cell therapy. Their office is beautiful and their staff is amazing! They were able to answer all of my questions and really made me feel at ease with my concerns. Make sure to do your homework if you're going to pursue any type of regenerative medicine treatment as there are a lot of people promising false information. If you have any type of knee injury or pain and want to avoid surgery, consider Ospina Medical your procedure. They are the best!

I have suffered with left knee pain for many years and recently it was getting so painful that it was difficult to walk up and down stairs. I was recommended to Dr. Maniam by a friend of mine for treatment and I couldn't be happier! I ended up getting a Regenexx PRP procedure for my left knee, specifically the left patellar tendon which turns out had some calcifications in it as well that Dr. Maniam was able to break up. I'm happy to report that I am now pain free and back to my usual routine. I'm pretty active (working out, tennis, MMA etc.) so getting back to my normal routine was very important to me. The entire team at Ospina Medical is top-notch and I highly recommend them for anyone who suffers from back or joint pain. They are also the only ones doing Regenexx procedures in NYC which is definitely the way to go if you are interested in regen treatments. Thanks again to Dr. Maniam and the entire team at Ospina Medical!

On first arrival Dr. Kohler and his staff at Ospina Medicine were warm and welcoming. He was precise in his knowledge and explained all parts of both my pain management due to previous injury, and preventative measures for future treatment. Their New York City based state of the art technology and contemporary office made me feel at ease immediately. As someone with continual back pain, and as someone who wants to avoid opioid treatment, the very nature of Ospina Medical using non-opioid approaches to pain management for me was a big bonus. The results have been brilliant, and I am so pleased to have Dr. Kohler to help me through my pain management process.

Dr Maniam and his staff are excellent. Renya at the front desk is always friendly and makes me feel comfortable. There’s a real sense that they care about their patients. I’ve had numerous spinal epidural‘s and radio frequency ablations, they’ve been painless and have gotten excellent results. This is the best pain management group that I’ve been to and I’ve been to more than a few... I highly recommend Ospina!

Dr. Maniam’s treatment was fantastic. I was quickly able to get back on the golf course - fully relieved of the chronic elbow pain I had been struggling with for months. His team was effective and supportive as well. I would definitely recommend Dr. Maniam to anyone looking for some relief

Ospina medical is such a warm practice. The staff is so lovely and helpful. Dr.Maniam is so good at what he does. He is extremely knowledgeable, gives his full attention, and never rushes you. He makes you feel 100 percent comfortable and you know you are in excellent hands. He is also extremely honest about everything. I value that so much. I highly recommend Dr. Maniam and his practice. I had the best possible experience.

Dr. Kohler is a dedicated, compassionate and highly trained doctor. The entire experience at Ospina Medical was very pleasant from the moment I walked in the door. The receptionist was helpful and courteous. Dr. Kohler is extremely professional and you get the sense that he is listening to you without feeling rushed. His use of technology to facilitate things is definitely a big plus. I recommend his services highly.

I have being dealing with chronic pain for over a year because I broke my lower back at that time, and since I stared coming to Ospina medical, I have released the pain on my lower back. I barely can feel any pain with the treatment. Doctor Maniam is extremely professional clear and friendly. It’s important when you feel connected with your doctor. I have no words to describe the staff, first thank you Reyna, Jacky, and Walida for being so amazing. I never experienced the level of treatment I have from them; they make you feel at home—all the girls are so kind and sweet. The space is amazing.. it’s like a spa with a beautiful decoration, it’s important to feel comfortable with the space because someone like me (who doesn’t like to go to the doctor because it makes you afraid of needles).. they will make you feel confident about your procedure. Its a huge difference when they really care about you. I definitely recommend them.

If I could give Dr Kohler and the team at Ospina 10 stars I would! While it's been difficult for me to struggle with pain these past several years, Dr Kohler has been an amazing source of help and support and really goes above and beyond. He has been understanding and supportive and is always thinking of different ways to try and alleviate my chronic pain. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, but he is constantly learning and keeping updated on the latest advances in the field so he can give his patients the best care. While many doctors seem to treat chronic pain sufferers as just a symptom, Dr Kohler is empathetic and listens to his patients to make sure that they are receiving the best care. You can tell that this mentality is important for all of the staff at Ospina too, and everyone on the team are all the best of the best. Jackie and Reyna especially are so caring, and it's clear that they are invested in making sure their patients are comfortable and having a good experience. Both are also so great with following up to make sure you're doing well if you have any procedures. I would recommend Dr Kohler and Ospina medical to anyone looking for someone who will be a dedicated doctor and partner in helping manage and treat your pain. While living with chronic pain is more than difficult, Dr Kohler and his team definitely makes the experience much more bearable and is the top doctor to have on your side!

I was 23 when I began experiencing low back pain. 3.5 years later, 3 MRIs, 3 epidurals, months of PT, and relying heavily on ibuprofen everyday I have finally found a treatment that works. Full disclosure, I work at Ospina Medical, but I chose to do a Regenexx procedure with Dr. Kohler because he has been the only doctor to treat my pain seriously. Most people, including other doctors, downplayed my pain because of my age. I am young and healthy so how could I possibly have chronic pain? When I first started working at Ospina Medical, I had reached a point where I thought I would be dealing with my low back pain for the rest of my life, but when Dr. Kohler and Dr. Maniam presented me with the option of a PRP procedure to treat my pain I knew I had to do it. I am now 12 weeks post op and I cannot believe the difference this regenerative medicine procedure made! I used to have radiating pain into my legs and standing for too long caused intense burning in the bottom of my feet. I haven’t had any pain or burning in the past few weeks and most importantly I don’t feel like my life revolves around my pain anymore! I cannot express my gratitude to Dr. Kohler and my entire team at Ospina Medical!

My experience at Ospina was exceptional! The whole process of getting treated here feels highly individualized because of the amount of detail and care that the staff puts into your case. I saw Dr. Maniam for cervical instability (including craniocervical instability and atlantoaxial instability) which results in horrible neurological symptoms that only worsen with time. Based on my condition, we decided to move forward with PRP injections to my cervical spine. The doctor was able to answer all of my questions and helped me feel reassured about the procedure. Here is where it gets interesting: my procedure was booked for a Wednesday morning. After coming in, it turned out that I wasn’t able to get the PRP injections that day due to a machine error. I work in software so I’m used to machines deciding to break out of the blue. The staff at Ospina were super apologetic. They even offered me a partial refund for my troubles, and most importantly, they rescheduled the procedure for the weekend (when the office is typically closed) so that I could hopefully heal in time before seeing family for the holidays. I came back on Saturday and had the procedure without a hitch! I’m currently recovering from the procedure and I feel confident that this was the right decision to make for my condition. It’s been an exhausting 10 months since a skiing injury destabilized my neck and caused a long list of neurological symptoms which were never treated by the multiple doctors I’ve seen before Dr Maniam. If you have cervical instability, I definitely recommend regenerative medicine at Ospina.

My experience with Dr. Raj Maniam of Ospina Medical in Midtown Manhattan was exceptional! Dr. Maniam accurately diagnosed targeted pain in my upper arm as a "frozen shoulder" utilizing modern, state-of-the-art technology. He did such a great job of explaining my treatment plan every step of the way, including explaining how PRP or Stem Cells could further aid my treatment. I felt much better after my procedure, feeling fully recovered without pain within a few hours! The entire process from the friendly staff at registration when visiting their modern office to their beautiful, modern surgical center to virtual visits for follow-up made me feel like I was with a innovative and caring practice! I would definitely recommend Dr. Maniam at Ospina Medical for any interventional pain, pain management or Regenexx concerns.

I'm a physical therapist but I'm also an active human, so I have my share of aches, pains, and injuries. I've been aware of the advances in regenerative medicine over the past decade through my own research, as well as through the experiences of my patients. When an old herniated disc starting acting up making sitting for even 5 minutes impossible, I knew it was time to call Dr. Maniam at Ospina for help. I am so glad I did! After getting platelet lysate injections for my back, and in conjunction with doing my corrective exercises, Dr. Maniam has totally eradicated my low back pain. And, I didn't have to tear my gut apart taking powerful NSAID's for months to feel better! I was so impressed by Dr. Maniam's work and the power of regenerative medicine that I have also gotten PRP injections for an old nagging rotator cuff injury, as well as for some arthritis in my hand. In all instances I have had significant improvements with almost a total reduction of pain and greatly improved function. Dr. Maniam and Dr. Kohler are not only experts in the field of regenerative medicine, they are trained Regenexx specialists. This means that they have access to the latest and greatest technology for making the highest quality biological products. Additionally, both Dr. Kohler and Dr. Maniam are constantly advancing their knowledge and techniques to ensure every patient has the best results possible. Ospina's holistic approach - including nutrition and functional medicine - helps make their regenerative medicine procedures successful as well as positively impacting overall health, performance optimization, and pain management. Thank you Dr. Maniam and Dr. Kohler!

I will start by saying , I always remember how I am treated. When you walk through Ospina Medicals doors they treat you like family. That says alot. I will never see another doctor. I have been with Doctor Kohler since 2017 and he has never given up on my medical issues. I have bad day's but most are good one's now. Not only is he caring and understanding. He knows what to do for you and not afraid to try different treatments. His staff are just like him the best. You will not be disappointed.

From start to finish the team at Ospina Medical is warm, engaging, and incredibly professional. The minute you walk into the bright, clean office you are greeted by a big hello from Reyna. I would say and smile, but everyone in the practice is masked as to remain compliant with the current NY State COVID guidelines. Health and safety always come first. Dr. Maniam was incredibly thoughtful, diligent and kind. After sustaining a double knee injury, I was worried I would never be able to spin without extreme pain. During my initial visit with Dr. Maniam, we worked out a two step treatment solution. After the first treatment my pain had decreased significantly, and by the second treatment I was almost back to new. This coupled with physical therapy, as recommended by Dr. Maniam have me back on track and on my bike. I honestly cannot recommend Dr. Maniam enough. If you are experiencing pain and want an alternative treatment option that doesn’t involve surgery, look no further than Ospina Medical.

I would like to say I have been to many medical places during the past 3 years For my lower spine problems, From the moment you walk into the door front desk to nurse to Dr I would like to say thank you personally, because they show you from day one the care and concern for their patients. Not once have I gone through run around as I have with all other places. DR. Kohler took his time explaining what was going on with my spine as I asked questions he answered , he basically showed me he was concerned that’s when I knew I was in the right place. Thank you to Reyna,Jackie,Dr.Kohler,Dr.Maniam for all.

I highly recommend Dr. Maniam and Ospina Medical! I’ve had chronic back pain for years and tried everything - therapy, chiropractors, acupuncture and had some injections but nothing worked for long. My primary care doctor referred me to a surgeon who said I needed a spinal fusion, which I definitely did not want to get. I looked into other options and I was curious about regenerative medicine as some of my friends had positive experiences. I’ve read a lot of mixed reviews about stem cells but I figured why not try it before surgery. Ospina Medical was recommended by my coworker and I met with Dr. Maniam who was fantastic. He answered all my questions and really had the most up to date data. He went through all my options and even explained it all over again to my wife when she came back with me. I ultimately decided to get the stem cell procedure for the discs in my lower back and it was the best decision I ever made. My back pain is nearly gone and I even got my golf swing back. For those who think surgery is their only option, consider reaching out to Dr. Maniam. He is honest and will steer you straight. Thanks again!

Dr. Maniam is a very kind person, and an astute clinician. He takes the time needed to understand his patients, and to give them quality care. Ospina Medical has a state-of-the-art facility and implements the latest technology for ultrasound guided injections, x-ray guided injections, stem cell injections, and PRP injections. They have a variety of approaches for treating low back pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, and migraines. Dr. Maniam has very thorough communications skills and when combined with his knowledge and skill set, you could not be in better hands!

Such a positive experience at Ospina Medical! Dr. Kohler really took the time to listen to my complaints and provided a thorough and detailed explanation of my condition and laid out all of the treatment options very clearly. I decided to have a PRP injection and the process was super easy and I’m feeling significantly better after only a few weeks! The office space is beautiful and the staff was exceptional. If you are suffering from a nagging sports injury like me I would highly recommend you check them out!
