Sorry for the late review on this. Just wanted to say that Dr. Anthony Chau rocks. I'm stubborn when it comes to going to a doctor, especially chiropractic, but I lived with back pain (real bad pain) for about 8 months before going to see someone. I have a 2 yr old, and all the lifting probably is what contributed to my problem. Anyways, don't expect a significant problem to be fixed overnight. Be realistic people. But if you follow his recommendations, you won't be sorry. His adjustments are very good, and he does not rush anything, and makes you comfortable, especially if you're like me, and do not like even the thought of getting an adjustment to your spine. He's legit, and I'd go back anytime if the problem arises again.

Getting in to an accident is not fun. Getting into two majour accidents within three years is definitely NOT fun at all. Dr. Chau is an awesome person; he is passionate about his work and genuinely cared for his patients from beginning to end. Knowing that I had to leave the country for three months, he even referred me to a local chiropractor in Hong Kong so my treatment sessions would not be interrupted. Years have passed, he still remembered the stuff we talked about during treatment sessions. Straight up awesome. Thanks Dr. Chau!

Great staff, very informative, relaxing & HEALING!!!I had never been to a chiropractor before and was very nervous. The doctors here are very patient and explain everything to you about your injury with xrays and diagrams

I'm a regionally ranked competitive master female runner. Two and a 1/2 weeks before my marathon, I had back spasms. Dr. Anthony Chou, was booked, but Alice, the receptionist, fit me into a last minute appointment. Dr. Chou was very cautious and carefully outlined a plan of intervention. After one treatment, I was able to run 12 miles with an ache but the pain (which was a 9) was gone. Twice weekly, I saw Dr. Chou and Dr. Anthony Chau. Because of their expertise, I ran the CIM Marathon scoring a personnel record and winning the Athena Division for women! I highly recommend Dr. Chou and Dr. Anthony Chau. You will be in experienced and expert hands!

Back adjustments are addicting.

My old insurance company (Kaiser) didn't seem to think that chiropractic care was necessary, so I dropped them (for countless other reasons). I had this lower back pain from lugging around cute, but gigantic bags. I've always said "fashion over function," but it's not so fashionable to be limping from pain. Dr. Chau is friendly and personable, but most importantly makes you feel comfortable and knows what he's doing. He explains in detail why you're feeling pain and what you can do to correct it.

The best visit was when I got whiplash in my neck from a snowboarding accident...more of a mishap. I tried to ignore the pain, but it seemed to get worse. After one visit to Dr. Chau, and a few snaps, cracks, and adjustments, the pain eased right away, and the discomfort simply disappeared in a few days.

Never tried any other place, and I may never.

City Spine Center "ROCKS"!!!! I have seen other chiropractors in the past and Dr. Chau is definitely the best ever. I live in the East Bay and drive all the way to the San Francisco to City Spine Center to see Dr. Chau is definitely worth it. I walked in with back pain and walked out feeling better after the treatment and adjustment.

He is very detail oriented and tells you everything and lets you know why you are in pain. The office is very pleasant and relaxing too!!! This is the first time I have gone to a Chiropractor and they actually care about their patients.

5 stars for Dr. Chau and his staff!!!!!

This is way overdue review. I've been to Geary Chiropractic for years. The combination of Dr. Anthony Chau, Dr. Tram Le, Dr. Terena Miller, and Alice makes for a great atmosphere and practice. Professional, Passion, full of knowledge and compassion. The clinic and rooms are clean and the serene decor adds a calming atmosphere to the patient. I was first referred to the practice due to an injury from a car accident. To be honest, I was pretty anxious to see him. I've never been adjusted before. But Dr. Anthony Chau has a very calming nature about him. He helped me relaxed and I became much more reassured. Although it did take a bit for me to get used to the cracking sounds during the neck adjustments. Can you blame me? I did watch too many action movies with characters getting their neck cracked and broken. But rest assured, you'll be in great care with City Spine Center. I always look forward to going to the clinic on adjustment day. I also have the best naps there. Thank you City Spine Center!

Dr. Chau was great. I went in for a few treatments and he really took the time to explain the anatomy of our bodies and how he will be able to make adjustments to reduce soft tissue and back pain. Alice at the front desk was also very friendly and prompt with scheduling.

Best... back adjustment... EVER.

I literally just walked out of the office feeling taller.

After years of chronic back pain, and 6 different chiropractors (due to moves, insurance changes, style), Dr. Chau is really the best, and I'm glad I'm back in the Richmond to take advantage of his skill, expertise, and care.

I hadn't seen him in a year and a half and he remembered all about my personal life asking me questions, getting the update. All while doing a full spinal adjustment that ended in the neck.

OH, MY, GAWD. It was amazing. I know I'll still be sore for a day or two, but I'm so glad I went before the back pain got out of hand. So glad that I can come here again. What a gem.

I have had nothing but excellent care in this clinic! I was nervous during my first visit a few years ago but Dr. Chau put me at ease immediately. He took the time to explain spine health and what good chiropractic maintenance can do to promote it. Moreover, Drs. Chau, Miller and Le have the most comforting bedside manners. They will make you come back even though nothing is ailing you. :) Truly and unequivocally, highly recommended!

I'm addicted to Dr. Chau's "crack!" : )

This office is always very clean, I've never had to wait more than five minutes to be seen and appointments are always available.

I don't want everyone to go here otherwise, there might always be a wait! But I do recommend that everyone go here. Dr. Chau can help you feel your best!

In this day in age of HMOs, PPOs and deteriorating health plans, it is great to see that there are still doctors out there that still care. I have never felt so much better after seeing a chiropractor. I know if I am going to continue yelping for years to come, I know I need to take care of my back and I know Dr Anthony Chau will help. I would highly recommend him because simply put..........he actually gives a shit. Instead of merely just cracking my spine and neck, he actually took the time to explain to me why my current posture would lead to more serious issues.

Alice, the receptionist, does a great job in getting us in and out of the office with a smile. Nice office, extremely professional, and great service. Will be coming back and referring my clients to see him.

This past Monday was my last session with Dr. Chau and the gang. And I have to say, it's been an awesome experience.

The City Spine Center is run by really great people. After a few visits, I found that the doctors here truly care about people as much as they care about their well being. The staff was warm, knowledgeable, and always took the time to address each of my concerns.

From day one, Dr. Chau was extremely thorough with explaining how the spine works in easy-to-understand terms, and how chiropractic therapy would make things better. And it worked. Session after session, I found myself looking forward to my next visit. It was that good.

And even though I wish I never got into an accident in the first place, I'm glad I found the right people to take care of me. If you get in an accident yourself, or simply have some concerns about pain in your neck, shoulders, or back, make an appointment with the City Spine Center. You won't regret it.

Update: added star back because the wait time has dramatically improved. Treatment is great as usual! Anthony Chau and his staff are wonderful chiropractors. They are professional and had helped me with the healing process after I was rear-ended in a car accident. Because it was a hit-n-run, I am using my health insurance which pays much less than car insurance coverage. Yet, they try to provide the same treatment and care that I "need". It's rare to find doctors who cares for their patients and this is one of those places!! :)

I love this place and the great group of doctors that make everything better. One day my back just gave out on me and begged for someone to fix me. I don't have a high tolerance for pain and this was the worse pain i've ever had to endure. I called the office and Dr. Chau saw me on a Tuesday (they only see patients M,W,F) bless his heart! I was having such bad spasm that I was on the floor writhing in pain at home and so I really appreciate him seeing me. Dr. Chau and his team are wonderful people. They thoroughly examined me and Dr. Chau took his time explaining the situation to me. After the first treatment and adjustment the awful pain went away and I almost kissed Dr. Chau! Now I'm almost back to my old self ! For your Chiro needs, please go to Geary Chiropractic, I swear its like magic. I love these people!

Their staff is friendly and very skilled at adjusting people's back into alignment and educate their clients on stretches and postures to help them stay aligned. I highly recommend City Spine Center to anyone looking for optimal health and excellent service. This place is very clean and has a modern design. They care more for your well-being than the old mighty dollar.
