Crescenta Family Medical Inc

You will never find a more compassionate family medical practice than this office! Dr Gary, Dr Debbie, Dr Costello & staff are wonderful caring professionals who have diagnosed problems with many members of my family that were misdiagnosed by other doctors. If I have a medical challenge and I am not convinced of the prognosis from my primary physician, I will always consult with Dr. Gary. I have seen him produce miracles with myself, my wife, my son and my mother. I have literally crawled into his office with severe back pain and walked out! Dr Gary has an advanced degree in chiropractic and more training in human anatomy than most MD's receive in a lifetime.

Dr. Gary, as he is commonly known, is simply the best. I have had issues with previous Chiropractors. I just hate it when they push the whole you need 'wellness care' thing, you know, come twice a week for the rest of your life. Dr. Gary doesn't push that. He will recommend further treatment if necessary, but never tried to get me to be seen more than what was needed or wanted. He is kind, smart, funny and very good at what he does. I have been a patient for years now and would never go to anyone else. The staff, including his fabulous wife Debra, are fantastic. When I go in, I am greeted like an old friend and that just feels good! I highly recommend Dr. Gary!

GET THE WORD OUT! He is horrible!!! Honestly what a control freak!

he is SO manipulative to get as much money out of you as possible. He is very controlling, does not let you reschedule appointments or make your own appointment, and treats you very little every time you go in. He was really mean to me and I have had other chiros and know what a chiro should do. He will adjust your back without much warning at all and you will be very sore!! My other chiros would let me breathe in then out and they would do the adjustment then. He messed up my neck when I used to have no neck problems before. I'm so glad I got out of his grip!

Oh in addition, he had me going in three times a week and I wasn't even getting better. Each time I went in he hardly saw me for 20 minutes or so. Ah yes and he will only give you questions and commands. He sort of treats you like a dog!

I hope for your own sake you find a better chiro! GRRR!

This place is a rip off of major proportions. Dr. Gary as he likes to be called is very friendly and acts caring. Apparently he is also the Medical Director here. I went in for a whiplash type injury. The treatments did little if anything. At one point they had me on 4-6 different medications at one time. I was so zoned out I could barely function. I asked about my insurance, "no problem" he said casually. He had me coming in 3 times a week and I asked again, is my insurance okay? No problem. They mill you around to other doctors who work there probably so that doctor can also bill your insurance. After about 5 or 6 weeks I got a bill for a couple hundred. I thought okay, I have to pay some. Then a bill for $400 which I paid, then $600 which I paid. Then I started getting bills for $2000, $3000. I said hey what is going on. "Well these are extra charges beyond what your insurance pays us." Now they are hassling me night and day. They sent this to a collection agency for something like $3400! BIG TIME RIP OFF artist here. I would NEVER recommend them to my dog.
