“Vasyl, thank you sincerely for your online spine consultation! I’ve thoroughly followed all the recommendations you provided. While my muscles have strengthened somewhat, I recognize that consistent and continuous effort would yield even better results. Your guidance has been invaluable. Looking ahead, if any issues arise in the future, I fully intend to seek your expertise in Ukraine. Once again, thank you very much!”

"Recently, I experienced sudden back pain. While I’d dealt with lower back discomfort and occasional neck pain shooting into my shoulder blades before, this recent escalation was alarming. My trust in doctors wavered—I couldn’t always assess their competence or discern whether their diagnoses were genuine or merely opportunities for profit.
In this critical situation, I visited the first clinic I found, considering factors like service quality, reviews, and visual cues. The doctor examined me, ordered MRI scans, and delivered a serious diagnosis along with a hefty bill of 70,000 rubles. The treatment plan boiled down to a single term: exercise therapy, priced at 7,000 rubles.
To validate the diagnosis and treatment, they recommended a trusted specialist specializing in back problems. Initially hesitant, I weighed my options:
Skype Consultation: Unconventional but incredibly convenient. No wasted time in queues or city-wide trips.
Strong Reviews: Reliable endorsements from a credible source.
Narrow Profile: Dr. Vasily Chaika wasn’t an abstract specialist; he focused precisely on the right problem.
I decided to consult with Dr. Vasily Chaika. Our hour-long conversation impressed me—his genuine engagement stood out. He explained how the back functions in simple terms, and together, we dissected the clinic’s diagnosis and prescribed treatment. As expected, many recommendations were ineffective or even contradictory.
In the end, Dr. Chaika provided comprehensive treatment recommendations in a detailed Word document. No expensive drugs, preventive services, or dubious procedures. Instead, I received step-by-step instructions for morning exercises, behavior throughout the day, and a list of foods to temporarily exclude from my diet to alleviate pain.
The remarkable part? Before reaching out to Dr. Vasily Chaika (http://vchaika.com/blog/lichnaya_istoriya), I endured nearly three weeks of excruciating pain—despite undergoing a blockade procedure and consuming strong painkillers. Yet, within 2-3 days of following his recommendations, I felt like a new person.
My conclusions:
Doctors by Vocation: Not everyone exploits patients’ ignorance for profit.
Narrow Profile Specialists: Even if busy, advanced doctors can remotely interpret images and diagnose effectively. Don’t waste time and money—consult experts like Dr. Chaika if your back hurts."

“Over the past three years, I’ve experienced thoracic spine pain that sometimes radiated to my heart. I consulted with various doctors, but their approach involved numerous tests, examinations, prescriptions and pills—with only temporary results, a couple months at best. These limitations affected my favorite hobbies like spearfishing, skiing, and parachuting—I’m a young and strong man who should be enjoying my prime of life, not chained to IVs nor bedridden. I want to thank Dr. Chaika Vasily Ivanovich for resolving my spine and heart pain in practically a single session. His effective exercises made a significant difference. I highly recommend contacting Dr. Vasily Chaika for anyone seeking better health. Don’t delay—take care and live life to the fullest!”

“And now 10 years have passed since we first met him, and during this time I have never asked for help at the hospital. There are no complaints and I lead an active lifestyle that I dreamed about. I recommend Vasily Chaika as an excellent specialist in the field of spinal diseases.”
"I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Vasily Chaika for restoring me to a life without pain. In 2004, I was diagnosed with a hernia in the lumbar region (L5-S1) measuring 10.2 mm by 41.8 mm. Prior to that, I endured frequent hospital visits, two or three a year, and countless chiropractic treatments. However, my condition worsened to the point where the pain became unbearable and even affected my right leg.
After an MRI, all the doctors unanimously recommended surgery as the only solution! But I hesitated—I didn’t want to undergo such an invasive procedure. That’s when my friends suggested I consult with vertebrologist Dr. Vasily Chaika. I followed his recommendations diligently.
Now, a decade has passed since our first meeting, and I haven’t needed hospital assistance during this time. There are no complaints, and I lead the active lifestyle I once dreamed of. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Vasily Chaika as an outstanding specialist in the field of spinal diseases."
