The Doctors

Throughout my time with this demanding sport, I incurred several aches, pains and injuries. Yet with my persistence passion for the sport, I sought out alternative therapies that would rehabilitate, maintain, and improve my health. This is when I first went to a chiropractor. It was an enlightening experience not only for my physical health but also for the start of my academic interest as a Chiropractor. At my first visit with the Chiropractor, I was experiencing tingling, and numbness in both of my arms and hands. With the spinal adjustments that I received, I found relief and also learned the cause of my symptoms, dis-ease and how natural chiropractic care could help correct the cause of my symptoms, with the only side effect being in better HEALTH. It is my sincere hope that I could return the favor of health and understanding to others. In my educational career, I majored in Biology/Pre-Med at California State University of Sacramento. During that time I obtained credentials as an Emergency Medical Technician and interned at a Chiropractic Office. It was great opportunity to interact with the doctor, staff and patients. I obtained my formal education in chiropractic at Palmer Chiropractic College in Santa Clara, California and graduated in 1996. During that time I participated in the community clinic and interned with several of the most successful Chiropractors in the Bay Area to further develop my clinical techniques. After graduating with my doctorate degree, I have continually sought out opportunities to learn more so that I could in turn share more information with my patients. I have attained post-graduate credentials as a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician (C.C.S.P.) and as a Certified Chiropractor in Spinal Trauma (C.C.S.T.). I have also received a licensure from the Department of Health Services of California as an X-ray supervisor and operator.

My current involvement in soccer, golf, running, tennis, as well as other sports, gives me a valuable perspective when treating athletes of all ages and ambitions. I also incorporate my knowledge of alternative remedies and nutrition to help my patients get an edge on staying healthy and feeling great. I am available at 2 Bay Area practice locations on the peninsula; 100 Bush Street, Suite 210 in San Francisco and here at Alliance Chiropractic, 199 California Drive, Suite 100 in Millbrae. I employ a combination of traditional chiropractic techniques and modern evidence based therapeutic procedures into each patient’s individual treatment plan. I strive to deliver specific and gentle procedures that allow for the very best patient outcomes available. When cases require other types of illness care, I never hesitate to refer my patients to other specialized physicians. My patients are made to feel comfortable asking questions about health and chiropractic so they may take an active role in their recovery toward health and wellness.
