“After 4 days with a painful stiff neck and tension headache, I went to see Dr. Shire and no kidding the next day I woke up with no pain (a bit of stiffness which went away in a couple of days with the daily stretches he told me to do). He was great, took his time and was kind. ”

It has been such a pleasant experience seeing doctor Shire. He is very knowledgeable and welcoming. He gave me adjustment to my neck and it felt better right away. Highly recommend.

This was my first appointment but I’m already sold on Dr Shire. He came highly recommended and now I know why. I have pretty acute white coat syndrome and he put me at ease right away, took his time explaining everything, and was incredibly thorough. Very much looking forward to my next appointment.

I always look forward to seeing Dr. Shire. The office staff is friendly, communicative and prompt. I've never had to wait long. Dr. Shire always addresses the issues at hand and is very professional yet friendly, personable and welcoming. Cannot say enough good things about him and this practice.
August 5, 2019Sabrina K.Verified patient
I've been seeing Dr. Shire for chiropractic care throughout my pregnancy. My visits have helped a lot with lower back and hip pain, as well as getting and keeping my body in ideal alignment throughout pregnancy. Dr. Shire and everyone in the office are super friendly, warm, and accommodating. It's a very relaxing and healing environment.

He was very educational. I had never been to a chiropractor before and he made me very comfortable and aware of what the practice is all about. He guided me through each step of the process during my consultation. On top that he is very personable! I laughed a few times! I very much enjoyed my visit and look forward to going back.
July 28, 2017Marlena L.Verified patient
Dr. Shire is the best chiropractor in NYC and in the world. He makes you feel comfortable and wrlcomed as soon as you get into his office. He explained all my issues thoroughly and encouraged me to continue treatment. As of today, I can say that Dr. Shire has healed me. Don't miss the chance to be treated by such a wonderful and caring human being.
June 15, 2017Wilfredo B.Verified patient
Dr. Shire is upbeat and positive. He knows how to converse in a way that relaxes you while getting chiropractic care. His staff treats you in a very professional, friendly manner. You feel cared for at Midtown Integrative Health & Wellness because of the vast array of treatments you can have done. Anything from chiropractic care to physical therapy, medical massage, weight loss, primary care doctors, and more. I've been going for almost 2 weeks now and I feel a difference. I recommend going in for a visit.

My initial appointment with Dr. Shire was amazing. He is super-easy to talk to and great at listening to concerns and symptoms. Waited less than 5 minutes in wait room before he saw me. It felt like we did so much in 1-hour appointment but never felt rushed. Would highly recommend to everyone and will be going back to see him next week to follow-up.
June 2, 2017Ryan M.Verified patient
Dr Shire is very attentive and extremely patient. I have been seeing him continuously over the last few weeks and have felt the most relief than any of the other treatment options I have pursued.
I have already recommended him to a friend/colleague, and would make the same recommendation for any one else looking for similar services.
Also - the staff at the office are all very pleasant.

Great first visit, thank you.

I first came to Dr.Shire when I threw my back out a few months ago (at only 24 years old). Needless to say, I was a little panicked and in pain, but Dr. Shire took the time to get my full medical history as well as an extensive sent of x-rays to really get a proper diagnosis of what could be causing the issues. He is exceptionally patient and personable. That combined with the pleasant and accommodating reception staff and massage and heat therapists, I've got to say I'm feeling the best I have in years. This is quite honestly the only doctor's appointment I love going to and I've been recommending anyone who tells me they have any neck or back pains.
April 21, 2017Sona K.Verified patient
Dr. Shire is great. He has great bedside manner. During my first visit he spent tons of time with me really learning about my concerns, issues, pains and how we can work together to fix them. You can tell he really cares about his patients from the very beginning of the visit. He took the time to teach me and ensure I understood what my issues are, the root cause and how much can really be impacted by your spinals system.
The sequential follow-up visits have also had the same feel. Always asking how I am feeling and ensuring we are on the right route to long-term success.
I would recommend Dr. Shire to anyone looking for a reliable chiropractor!
March 22, 2017Samantha W.Verified patient
I have been seeing Dr. Shire for the last few weeks of my pregnancy, and though I was hesitant at first, he has been extremely gentle and patient. He not only relieved much of the back pain that had built up over 7 months of pregnancy, but has also helped align the baby for birth. Dr. Shire has excellent bedside manner, and is one of the most kind and understanding practitioners I have ever been to. I highly recommend Dr. Shire to anyone having any back pain- pregnant or not.

I came in today to meet with Dr. Shire, and was very pleased that I decided to come to his practice. The staff was extremely friendly, very resourceful, and very helpful. The office was well lit, spacious, and inviting.
Dr. Shire was very accommodating to my needs, and really showed that he cared about my time, my overall health, and my wellness. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Shire, and I felt that I was in safe hands.
I left Dr. Shire's office with a smile on my face, and excitement to come see him again for future visits.
I highly recommend Dr. Shire to other individuals seeking a chiropractor.
January 20, 2016Benjamin K.Verified patient
Dr. Shire is a very sincere person. He helped me tremendously with a degenerative disc in my neck, and now I have full motion and movement. I do not trust many; and he is one I am very loyal to now. I am so grateful that he accepts Aetna. It allows me to maintain the level of care I need to be healthy.
December 22, 2015Jody N.Verified patient
I have been a patient of Dr. Shire for a couple of years now. He is a gifted chiropractor and I recommend him highly. He is passionate about his work and goes above and beyond for his patients. The office runs like a well-oiled machine. A 5 star experience all around.

I have had a painful problem with my low back for years. Dr. Shire began to resolve the pain right away. Dr. Shire's friendly positive attitude makes the visit pleasant and enjoyable. My dad also recovered from a back problem after a few visits with Dr. Shire too...

Dr. Shire is always on time and always very professional. He makes sure to inquire about your overall health. He leads by example by keeping a healthy overall lifestyle himself. He believes in the overall balance of a healthy life. His down to earth and easy manner always makes it a pleasure to see him and his quick responsiveness is great for the busy professional
