Stackwood Chiropractic

I had been suffering from intense daily headaches for a few years, and now after being in therapy with Dr. Stackwood, I feel great!!!!!

One of the very best chiropractors in San Francisco! After a very bad accident in 2010, a shoulder surgeon had recommended an exploratory surgery to find out what is wrong with my right shoulder. I chose not to go with the surgery and started my treatments with Dr. Stackwood based on a recommendation from a friend. After seeing Dr. Stackwood for a few months my shoulder was almost fully healed and I did not need any surgery. I have gone to Dr. Stackwood numerous times since then and it is always a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend him.

I’m a server so I’m on my feet 8 hours per day. After that, all was having a sharp pain on my back, laying on the floor and feeling miserable till I get sleep. Now, after being in therapy with Dr. Stackwood, I feel great. I’m able to do things after work, I don’t have that continuous pain in the back. I’m so happy for that decision that I took. Was life changing. Thank you so much Dr. Stackwood, I owe you a thousand!!!

I posted this a couple of years ago on yelp to a site he closed - see reviews to get a fair perspective of this chiropractor. Dr. Stackwood has changed offices a couple of times it looks like. I've gone back to school again to be a healthcare provider after being a healthcare professional (administrator) for 15 years. As a patient advocate it's important to know the character of the provider. It's critical. I decided to see Dr. Stackwood only because of his Groupon for a massage. On the day of my appointment I returned his office manager's call to confirm my appointment. My only question was where to park. A fundamental question. On the phone, his office manager responded that I could park out front of their office on Geary Street and that she could feed the meter (meter allows payment up to 1 hour) or park around Post and Sutter streets. I was running 5 minutes late and parked outside their office as she advised. I handed extra quarters to his office manager who noted the time of 3:50pm and she said she would feed the meter. A very kind gesture. I did not ask her to do this. I only accepted her offer and trusted her. So, I saw Dr. Stackwood and went to my massage. I wasn't impressed him. I've seen chiropractors and Osteopaths. You can find better than Dr. Stackwood especially if you want a provider with integrity. This is a reflection of his integrity. Immediately after my visit the same office manager told me my car was towed. I thought she was joking. It turns out patients should not park there from 4-6pm. I should have looked, but when I asked they said to park out front and was running a few minutes late so I took the staff's advise. You would think they would know. I called Dr. Stackwood and no response. I emailed the office and no response. Finally after a couple of attempts he got on the phone. The total tow away fee was $584 and I asked if his office would pay half and I accepted my responsibility. He said no and that it was my fault. In hindsight, he was telling me to not listen to his staff. I learned a lesson, but luckily my visits with providers haven't been like this. It's poor administration that his lead by his unethical leadership as a professional. You don't want this type of provider putting his hands on you; he is very unethical. I'm not the only one with a bad experience. Read the other reviews on yelp. This provider has to keep changing customer reviews sites, but the truth can't be erased. Wishing you the best in your care.
