Growing up one of six children in Long Island, New York, James Linnick’s parents taught him that he could accomplish anything with hard work and a supportive family. He came to ArchWell Health because he believes it’s important that his patients stay healthy, active, and feeling like they are vital to their families—and the community. Outside of work, James enjoys spending time with his family, live theater, martial arts, and a variety of sports.

Dr Linnick was my Doctor for nearly 15 yrs. Little does he know he saved my life! He kept me from attempting suicide in 2004. He genuinely cares about his patients. I love and miss you Dr. Linnick!!! I hope you're doing well!!! God bless you and your family!!!

I was a patient of Dr. Linnick from 1990-2003. He'd still be my GP if I hadn't moved away. I can honestly say that I truly miss everything about being his patient. Patients like me can drive doctors crazy, but it's not by choice. Since I turned 22, and in the midst of starting my teaching career, I became what some Doctors call a boomerang patient. I have multiple autoimmune diseases, and rapid onset disk and bone deterioration (my back), resulting in five surgeries, (more in the future), and leaving me with severe neuropathy, myleopathy, and Occipital Neuralgia Migraines. Dr. Linnick cares!

I have been going to Dr. Linnick for several years and consider him an excellent Family Practitioner. He listens to you and is open to new ideas. I highly recommend Dr. Linnick .

Dr. Linnick is the best when it comes to patient care. Unlike Doctors in the past, He never seems rushed and takes the time to explain what is going on with your health. He does not talk over your head or cast Judgement upon his patients. He is a hometown kind of Doctor who feels like a friend...Thank you Dr. Linnick

In these days of overbooked doctors that don't remember anything about their clients it is refreshing to have someone who really cares and remembers you and reviews your health.
