I've been going to ""Doc G."" now for over a year. I moved out here and needed a new chiropractor, so I called him since he is pretty close to my apartment. Glad I did! He picked ...

I just have to say I was new to chiropractic and I don't want to say chiropractic didn't work. Just maybe I went to the wrong place. I had some mild neck pain and a friend re...

POTRERO CHIROPRACTICS OFFERS MOST COMPREHENSIVE TREATMENT AND MOST LASTING PAIN RELIEF 9/21/2006

I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE LASTING PAIN RELIEF I'VE GOTTEN FROM THE TEAM AT POTRERO CHIROPRACTICS. \r \r AFTER 20 PLUS YEARS OF LONG DISTANCE RUNNING AND OTHER ENDURANCE TRAINGING, I WAS LEFT WITH A HIP AND LEG INJURY WHICH PREVENTED MY WORKOUTS FOR OVER 3 YEARS. I TRIED A VARIETY OF TREATMENTS INCLUDING OTHER CHIRO'S AND ACCUPUNTURISTS WHICH WOULD GIVE ME A BRIEF PERIOD OF RELIEF BUT THE PAIN WOULD RETURN AFTER A FEW DAYS. ALTHOUGH I'M NOT USUALLY QUICK TO GIVE-UP, I FOUND THIS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING AND DEPRESSING AS I HAVE ALWAYS RELIED ON MY WORKOUTS TO MAINTAIN GOOD MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH. \r \r THEN, ABOUT 8 WEEKS AGO, A GROUP OF US NURSES WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT OUR ACHES AND PAINS WHEN ONE NURSE MENTIONED HAVING A GREAT CHIROPRACTOR WHO HELPED HER BECOME PAIN FREE. AS IT TURNS OUT THERE WERE FOUR OTHER NURSES WORKING THAT NIGHT WHO ARE ALSO TREATED BY THIS ""GREAT CHIROPRACTOR AND ACCUPUNTURIST"". AFTER SOME HESITATION I DECIDED TO GIVE THESE GUYS A TRY.\r \r THE REST IS HISTORY. THE COMBINATION OF SKELETAL AND SOFT TISSUE THERAPIES I RECEIVED FROM THE TEAM AT POTRERO CHIROPRACTICS HAS SEEMED MAGICAL. TRUTH BE TOLD, I THINK THESE GUYS JUST KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. \r \r I AM PAIN FREE MOST OF THE TIME AND THE DEPRESSION HAS STOPPED. A 12 HOUR WORK SHIFT SPENT ON MY FEET CONSTANTLY IS NO LONGER ENDING WITH SEVERE LEG AND HIP PAIN. AND BEST OF ALL, I'M RUNNING AGAIN!! COMFORTABLY!!\r \r IF PAIN IS LIMITING YOUR LIFE AND YOUR HAPPYNESS, PAY A VISIT TO THE TEAM AT POTRERO CHIROPRACTICS. YOU WON'T REGRET IT.\r \r ADAM LUNA,\r REGISTERED NURSE more

all the right qualities for a doctor's office... 7/14/2006

The staff is friendly and helpful, the wait is never long, and the hours are appropriate for working patients. More importantly, Doc G has an intense, hard-working manner, and never fails to demonstrate dedication to his patients health and well-being. He works and talks fast, so sometimes you have to be quick to get a question in; but despite the busy schedule, hes managed to create an extremely comfortable environment, where you feel entirely supported as a patient. Pros: good hours, friendly staff Cons: location not that great for public transit more

Miracle worker or Chiropractor, you decide... 7/13/2006

Doc G, as he's best known is an amazing chiro. I walked into his office a virtual cripple as I had a very pronounced pinched nerve. After some initial analysis, Doc G isolated the issue (which turned out to be a curvature of my spine, also known as scoliosis) and went to work on me. After 2 sessions per day for 6 days, I was able to regain full rotation of my neck and with each day the progress got better. He was professional, attentive, and took his time to understand my problem and the nature of the pain I was suffering...then he solved it!!! Yippeee!!! :-) Pros: Friendly team, relaxing environment, solid results with each visit Cons: I moved away fm Potrero Hill :-( more

a doctor for working professionals, with no wait, safe and affordable 7/13/2006

I found Doctor Gilson through a review on tribe and thought i forward on this good find. This is the most convenient, and success-oriented place in town. I drop in, am seen right away, and pay less than half of a massage or acupuncture visit. Top-of-line icing and massage tables, and you are out-of-there. I just made it through my first Ironman because of Doctor Gilson. He's an athlete and understands active people's goals of getting better fast. Cons: parking more

Very addictive, but no nasty side effects 7/13/2006

After 12 years as a gymnast and 6 years at a computer, my body was pretty messed up: arthritis in my neck, loss of motion in my ankle, and perpetual inflammation and discomfort in one of my knees. I started seeing Doc G just because he had a table set up at my gym, and I've never looked back. He took Xrays so I could see the damage to my neck and spine, then put me on an intensive program to get me feeling better quickly. I threw away my Excedrin Migraine, which I had been taking at least 3 times a week. Every time I have a new injury or problem, Doc G is generous with his time and advice. Go see him! Today! If his sparkling personality doesn't get you to come back, the roller tables will.\r \r * I also appreciate the casual office environment. I'm not always, um, on time ... and sometimes I show up without warning, but with a little wait I'm never turned away. Plus he has evening and Saturday morning hours, just to make it easier. And payment plans. And a really nice staff. Pros: flexible hours, service Cons: addictiveness more

Wonderful friendly atmosphere and pain relief extraordinaire 7/13/2006

I've been visiting Doc G for years and rely on him to help me with migraines and back pain. I know I can trust him to take all the pain away for me... and he is perpetually cheerful and happy and funny. The rest of the office are quite lovely also :-) Pros: service Cons: parking can be a challenge at certain times of the day more
