I started seeing Dr. Christopher Montellese in January 2019. After a couple of visits, he found the cause of all my pain was my hip. I couldn’t walk right or bend down and had awful pain. He recommended a specialist in the Bay Area, and I had surgeries on both hips in 2019. It was a painful recovery, but without Dr. Christopher’s help and dedication, it would have been impossible! He helped me in so many ways I can’t even explain. I couldn’t put on my socks or lift my leg, but after weekly adjustments, massages, and his emotional help, I can do those things and more. Thank you, Dr. Chris — you are the best!

Marina, CAI saw Dr. Chris in 2018 for a low back injury and he was fantastic.
I saw 2 of the other doctors in the office due to scheduling conflicts and they were equally as great.
Really nice office staff and very professional, competent chiropractors.
They handled everything with the insurance company and provide thorough treatment.
I highly recommend this office and I had a very good experience with them.
