Review from dc l.

Dr. Eva Chu is simply excellent. My wife had back pain and was introduced to her about a year and a half ago by a friend. After a little more than a month, thanks to Dr Chu's work, my wife's back improved dramatically.
About four months ago, I had SI joint inflammation which developed into severe back pains that kept on getting worse. At the height I was unable to get into/out of my car and my bed. I tried everything -- pain killers, icing, steroids, muscle relaxant, stretching and going to a chiropractor. Naturally, because of her work with my wife, I went to Dr. Chu for treatment.
Although it took me a long time (3 months) for my back to completely to heal, I must say Dr. Chu's knowledge, experience, patience and professionalism made a huge difference in my recovery. Also, she was able to offer very helpful advice to me during the darkest moments of this episode.
Thanks to Dr Chu, I have been playing tennis without pain for the past couple of weeks. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a good, trustworthy chiropractor. -

Dr. Eva Chiu is the third chiropractor I have ever been to. The first two chiropractors I went to were both very good, but Dr. Eva Chiu is by far the best.
There are so many things that set her apart from the rest:
1. great techniques and implementation of those techniques
2. wonderful personality, bedside manner, and overall person
3. keeps me in check and encourages me to exercise and do the other things that will help me in my chiropractic treatments
4. office organization and overall works of the office
5. update exams and tests with print outs that tells me were I am in the treatment process
6. Chiropractic Emergency Card, if you need to see another chiropractor while traveling.
When I started seeing her I was spending most of my time in bed and was unable to work. Now just 4 months later I am doing so well, back to my normal activities and able to work again.
I have been seeing her since 9/2010 and I hope I never have to move again, because I want to continue seeing her for as long as I need chiropractic care. Thanks so much Dr. Eva for giving me back my health. -

It is unfortunate that my insurance did not cover out of network DC. I liked Dr. Eva from the moment she examined me at the San Mateo Farmer's Market.
I went in for the initial exam and xrays and greatly appreciated her professionalism and thoroughness. She explained every detail about her findings and made me understand the diagnosis and treatment path. Even after she knew I probably wouldnt continue under her care (I had previously disclosed that I left a former DC when they stopped carrying my isurance) she offered up her xrays and preliminary work for whoever I decide to go with. She cares about helping and healing more than she cares about gaining a new client.
I would love to have continued under her care and was actually saddened when she said she did not carry my insurance. I would recommend her for anyone who needed chiropractic care. -

One of the best things about being back in the Bay Area is being able to go to Dr. Eva Chiu in San Carlos. I've been to a handful of chiropractors in the past and she is, by far, the best one I've been a pleasure of being a patient of. She is so informative and talks you through not only what she is doing, but also tells you WHY she is doing it. I love that!
I highly recommend going to Dr. Chiu @ Bayside Chiropractic Center, if you have the opportunity. I live in the East Bay and cross the bridge everytime, but it doesn't matter to me because she is so worth it!!!
They are so accomodating when it comes to scheduling. Jenny, at the front desk, is super friendly and will work with you ensuring you have a convenient time that works best for you and Dr. Eva. The environment of this office is so warm and welcoming. I look forward to my visits here.1 Previous Review: Show all »

I never really believed in chiropractors until a couple of years ago when I got into a horrendous car accident. It left me unable to sit for more than half an hour at a time. A friend of mine referred me to Dr. Eva at Bayside Chiropractic in San Carlos and because of her, I'm back to being 100%. Not only was she thorough at explaining what was wrong with me, she was also really honest about the her methods and what the outcome would be. She warned me that there would be "good" and "bad" days but made me feel comfortable enough to trust her judgment. These days I'm not a frequent visitor, but I still get adjusted once in a long while just to treat the stress build up.
Her staff is courteous, knowledgeable, really helpful, and most importantly quite flexible with scheduling (My work schedule was all over the place!). I've referred lots of friends and coworkers, and have not heard anything negative in return from their visits.
If you're looking for someone that can provide help with preventative information, do the occasional adjustment or someone that can treat you for a major injury, Dr. Eva's the way to go. -
Review from Alan N.

Last night while training wrestling and jiu-jitsu, I went against two 200lb gorillas that were putting me in chokes, locks, and holds like the 'guillotine', 'crucifix', 'can opener' neck crank, 'mata leao' (brazillian-portugese for 'it kills lions') and 'anaconda choke.' I was also slammed a few times. So the sport isn't exactly the best for your neck and back. Hell, this morning it felt like I just got out of a bad car wreck.
So I called up Dr. Eva to have her work her juju on my back. Iced me up, used some funky jackhammering massage thing and did the adjustments. Adjustments were great! Especially the 'hug' adjustment and my favorite when she twists you up to crack your back just perfect.
Now that painful pinch in my back is gone and I can turn my head like a normal person now.
So now I can go back to training to go hurt myself again. =)

I have been seeing Dr. Eva Chiu for a while now and have been nothing but pleased with her chiropractic care. She has a calm demeanor and great chair-side manners. It is always a pleasurable experience when ever I get adjusted because her adjustments are very gentle yet effective. As a dentist, my neck and lower back has always been a problem... but after seeing Dr. Chiu regularly every month, I have not had any problems. Once a quarter, I would feel this extreme pain and tenderness
I always look forward to my appointments and know that you will too. Give her a call... then only thing you have to lose is your neck and back pains! :-) -
Review from Wes H.

I'm close to 40 years old now, and I guess years of build up have garnered tension in my lower back. Allow me to explain: I normally work 9-10 hours a day, work out at the gym about 3 times a week, and just started to pick up football on the weekends. All of that work behind a computer all day and exercises have resulted in some impact to my posture, creating some incessant pain my back.
Dr. Eva was my first introduction to the practice of chiropractic care, and her treatments are a great cure for my alignment. Each time, I feel like a new person, and refreshed to get back to my busy days. She also provides excellent advice on preventive measures, and proves to be a dependable resources in case I have questions.
From a customer's standpoint, I find her to be very courteous and friendly which is very important in any service. She also has very reasonable rates, although using my insurance was not an issue. Convenience is also a plus - her location is easy to get to and scheduling is never an issue. Highly recommend - AAAAA+++++. -

I made an appointment with Dr Chiu after I injured my back on a plane on my way back to San Francisco. During the first session, she really helped me by focusing on the pain point. Additionally during the following sessions we also worked on the longer term to prevent such an injury to happen again.
Dr Chiu is great at listening to her patients and quickly identifies their problems. Her chiropractic skills are top-level and I never felt uncomfortable when she was twisting my back or my neck...
Less than two months later, I'm happy to say that not only I have no more pain in my back but I've also started running again!
I highly recommend her if you are looking for a great chiropractor in the Bay Area. -

Six months ago I got into a car accident and injured my neck and back. I was experiencing a lot of pain in my neck and upper back. I couldn't sleep and had problems turning my head. Since I went to another local chiropractor 2 years ago for my back pain but it did not work at all. So this time my husband did some yelping and he found out that Dr. Eva had a very good review. And it's true. Dr.Eva is by far the best chiropractor I've ever seen! She is very knowledgeable and gentle. She is EXCELLENT!!! I am so happy that I've met her. Now my back and neck feel much better than before. I really hope there are more doctors like her.
I also met Dr. Steve Sprague who was very kind and helpful. He treated me once when Dr. Eva was on vacation. And Dr. Sprague is also really great and knowledgeable. My 2 year old son loves both Dr.Eva and Dr.Sprague because sometime if i can not find a babysitter, I will bring my son to their office(I always go when it's a less busy time). If Dr. Sprague is not very busy during my visit he always plays with my son(a very energetic toddler boy) while I am being treated by Dr.Eva.
I would recommend both Dr. Eva and Dr. Sprague without any hesitation at all! Thanks, Dr. Eva and Dr. Sprague!!1 Previous Review: Show all »

Decided to update my review for Bayside Chiropractic as it's been a few years... I still live in the East Bay but always make it a point to see Dr. Chiu in San Carlos. I really need my back adjustments as the heels just keep growing higher. Even though I've seen her for years, she always lets me know exactly what she is about to do and why she has to make the adjustment.
I highly recommend Dr. Chiu - especially for those newbies who have never seen a Chiropractor. She will make you appreciate chiropractics and you'll wonder how you were able to live with that misalignment your whole life!1 Previous Review: Show all »

My visit with Dr. Eva Chiu during my visit to Bayside Chiropractic Center in San Carlos was amazing. I had made an appointment expecting and asking for a regular adjustment because I was experiencing a lot of pain in my neck and upper back. I couldn't sleep and had problems turning my head. Dr. Chiu was thorough in understanding all of my problems so she could effectively treat me. Explained to me why she needed to know these things and how she was going to help me. By the end of the appointment I felt much better and over the next couple appointments I was great. Don't know if it is that easy for everyone as all problems are different I'm sure, but I do know that whatever problem you may have she will treat you as needed. I have been recommending her to all my friends and family.

Dr. Eva is excellent. I've been going to her for about a year now. She works on all aspects of your pains. Not everything is always related to joints being out of place thought she does a great job of cracking them back in line. She does a lot of supporting muscle work as well to ease pressure and tension on joints. I would recommend her without any hesitation at all!

I am a dentist and work in a very small environment- the mouth- which often requires me to contort my body and neck to get a better view. As a result, I get chronic back and neck pain. Dr. Chui snapped back into place very gently and efficiently. I highly recommend Dr. Eva for your chiro needs. She is not only a great and professional chiropractor, but also a caring friend whom I can bounce business ideas off of.

I wish I can give 100 stars! Dr. Eva Chiu-Llorando is the best chiropractor in the bay area. Her clinic is in the beautiful city of San Carlos. I get very stressed @ work and my back and neck gets really tensed, so to relieve it, I see Dr. Eva. She helps me go through my everyday stressful life. I'm getting my adjustments almost everyday during the week! Try it, and I'm sure you will thank me for recommending her!

Dr. Chiu is one of the best Chiropractors out there. Having gone to a handful of chiropractors, I was hesitant at first, but not all chiropractors that I have been adjusted by were able to give me complete adjustments. That definitely was not the case with Dr. Chiu. She has a great combination of being gentle, having the strength to adjust and the technique to really help you feel better.

I had an opportunity to meet Dr. Eva at the San Mateo County Fair. She and some fellow chiropractors had a booth there. She offer to give me an adjustment. At first I was a little nervous about it, but thought I had nothing to lose. I honestly was hoping it would help the stiffness that I was experiencing for a while around my neck and back. She was very gentle and professional and had a way of making me relax which made the process really comfortable. After the adjustment I felt like I was a brand new person. Its been a few days since the adjustment and my neck and my back has shown alot of improvement. I will definitely go back to see her again and will refer her to all my friends and family members if ever they are looking for a chiropractor.

For the longest time, my wrist had bothered me. I had been to two chiropractors, multiple physical therapists, and multiple doctors. None of them had been able to help me and they had all come up with various reasons why my wrist hurt. I went to see Dr. Eva Chiu at Bayside Chiropractic in San Carlos and explained the situation. She is listened to me and explained what she thought was the problem. After an adjustment, I started to feel better for the first time. She was also able to tell me what to expect after the treatment and what to do the make the wrist better. After only another visit or two, my wrist gradually got better to where it does not bother me at all. To think all that pain could have been avoided if I had only gone to Dr. Eva Chiu. Dr. Eva Chiu strikes me as very intelligent and a "student" of science of chiropractic care. She understands what is wrong and can come up with the appropriate care very quickly. Highly recommended!

Dr. Eva Chiu is one of the most professional and people-orientated Chiropractor's out there. She is very passionate about her profession and truly cares about her client's condition and progress. Her patience and personal demeanor makes us feel as if we are not visiting just a doctor's office. Her office has a warm, friendly and comforting vibe about it. Not only does she adjust our spines, but she provides a holistic solution to help us improve our whole body and lifestyle. For those who are anxious about having their spines adjusted, she will put you at ease with her confidence and gentleness. So if you need to see a Chiropractor, definitely look into Dr. Eva Chiu. You'll make a new friend!

Due to a wrist injury from scuba diving that lingered for months, my friend referred me to Dr. Chiu. What was I thinking for not going sooner. After a few sessions and some at-home exercises, my wrist recovered in no time. Then came the neck injury from bad posture sitting all day long in front of the computer. Dr. Chiu provided thorough explanation and advice which resulted in less painful repeated occurrences. Her treatments are effective and a life saviour.

Why live with pain? I was for a long time before I finally found Dr. Eva in Redwood City near where I work. The place is very easy to get to with easy parking. Everybody is very friendly and helpful, and the facilities are clean and professional.
Not only will Dr. Eva's friendliness and positive attitude put you at ease, she is also very knowledgeable and will explain the problem and the treatment in a way that makes sense. Her technique is excellent and even though I have a relatively large frame, she has no problems adjusting my spine in various ways.
Three weeks into the treatment and I am now almost pain free in my lower back (the reason I went.) I have also received effective treatment for two injuries I thought were untreatable (an "arthritic" shoulder and an old knee injury) and had resigned myself to living with.
If you're suffering from any sort of pain and you think it will never go away, do yourself a big favor and see Dr. Eva Chiu. -

I have had chronic back pain for many years and have tried many different forms of therapy, but it has not compared to the treatment I have received from Dr. Sprague. I feel that Dr. Sprague really cares for me as a patient and explains things in terms I can understand. He has not only helped me with my pain but has given me preventative care suggestions to maintain an active life. Dr. Sprague is as good as it gets!
