I quit smoking. Of course I decided to test myself last night so I went out with some friends, some that still smoke, and all of us having a few beers. I didn't even think about having a cigarette even after having a few beers. I feel empowered now. I told my them about this treatment and some seemed interest. Franc helped me with this issue that has been a great concern for many years now.

Ok came in with lowback pain and I saw Dr. Alex only twice he fixed me up and I thought I was all fixed and I really didn't listen to Dr. Alex's advice coming in a couple more times. Why? Because I knew better! Between you and I why do I need 2 or 3 weeks of adjustments? My last chiropractor just let me go after one visit but than I noticed I had to keep on coming back after very 2 visits because the pain kept on coming back. That could be work or he just he never fixed me. Anyway thinking I knew best I pretty much said I just want to be adjusted to Dr. Alex. Dr. Alex smiles and pretty much lets me think I am going to be adjusted. He than talks to me for 10 minutes and explained things which of course I didn't listen to. Got my two adjustments and left. Two weeks later the pain comes back really bad and I go back bc this guy was convienent, quick and he fixed me the last time. Ok so I hate to say it but Dr. Alex was right and I was wrong. There I said it. In the nicest way Dr. Alex kind of says I told you so but more elaborate with medical descriptions. He re-explains everything to me from the second visit while 2 people are waiting for him and I knew he didn't have the time to do talk to me but I am glad he did bc I Finally listened. Dr. Alex knows what he talking about, I went on a treatment plan for a month and I have been pain free for 3 years and I never get bad pain anymore just some mild tightness He fixed the alignment and the posture and he just didn't do a patch job which I was doing. This is what I needed and I now come in once a month to every other month for maintenance care. This guy takes the time to explain my problem and how to fix it, you just have to do what he says and you will be fine. Don't be like me and listen and stick with the treatment plan or your going to wasting your money, time and only end up in pain in the long run
Pros: Great Location, Knowledgeable Doctor, Strtching
Cons: Lobby is under Construction but looks like it will be great!

Hard to believe one can actually look forward to visiting the dentist, but in this instance it's true....
In the time I've been his patient, I have always been treated with the utmost respect by everyone in CitiDent, but the tone is obviously set by Dr. Amini himself. His first concern has always been my care & comfort, and not just the obvious issue of pain management. Like most of us who need more than routine dental care, finances are the next issue, and he and his staff are right there to work with me and my insurance company to overcome any obstacles to receiving necessary care in a timely fashion. Even when things don't go quite perfectly - for instance, the occassional appointment scheduling mix-up (for which I usually bear some responsibility.....) - CitiDent has been more than accommodating in correcting problems.
The results of his care and concern are obvious in my smile, but not just the teeth themselves. It's the way I feel knowing that a truly professional practice supports my dental health. I highly recommend CitiDent and Dr. Amini to anyone needing dental care - and, in my opinion, it's worth the trip into San Francisco for the best care around.
Pros: Extremely comfortable environment
Cons: They don't serve beer......

After a violent automobile accident my daughter and I were in need of specific chiropractic and accupuncture care. PotreroChiros took immediate action, made a review of our needs and put us on a solid rehabilition program. We received excellent health care. We are both now doing very well.
PotreroChiros also took complete responsibility for the insurance billings. We did not have to think twice about insurance, billing, or money. Our health was their main concern while staff took care of business.
Pros: location, convenience, ease of appointments

Dr. Chao is a wonderful dentist who doesn't doesn't make me feel any worse that I already do for not flossing daily. Everyone in the office is very accommodating, especially with my frequent re-schedule and occasional tardiness. A great feature of the office is the great view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Another nice touch is that they provided an iPod to listen to during one of the longer procedures.

Patricia Galamba is the finest doctor I've ever had, which explains why I now choose to drive to San Francisco rather than lose her sincerely caring attitude and remarkable diagnostic skills.
Patricia Galamba has been my physician for over 15 years. When I moved away from the Bay Area and became very ill, I saw several other doctors who did not correctly diagnose my illness as serious. My husband insisted that we return to Dr. Galamba. She saw me immediately, diagnosed me correctly, and admitted me to the intensive care unit of St Francis Hospital (just across the street) in less than an hour. There I spent several days in intensive care and many months in recovery. I know this doctor to be very professional, thorough, caring and compassionate. I know this doctor saved my life.
I have referred many clients to her, all of whom love her and drive into the City to see her.

I have been going to this place for couple years after being recommended by another doctor for oral surgery. The group are very caring and acts in a very professional manner. They explain everything before doing anything. They listen to you when you ask questions. They put on several fillings and it doesn't cost much. I recommend them to whoever lives in San Francisco.

I had an emergency and I had to bring my pet in to see a vet. The people at Pets Unlimited made me feel comfortable about coming in and the prices were reasonable considering this was an emergency. The vet, the pharmacist, the front desk staff, as well as the tech were professional and friendly and I really felt like my cat was in good hands. I would suggest anybody looking to adopt should contact them and continue receiving vet services from Pets Unlimited.
Thanks to the staff. My kittie is feeling much better!
