Go there!

I've been going to "Doc G." now for over a year. I moved out here and needed a new chiropractor, so I called him since he is pretty close to my apartment. Glad I did! He picked up when it wasn't even business hours and told me to "come on in!" (still, not business hours, but he was willing to make an exception since I was new to town). He and his staff always greet me with a warm smile and enthusiasm. I always feel taken care of and a million times better leaving the office. Not only is Dr. Gilson is a great chiropractor, but he's ALSO a great person. Everytime I turn around, he's hosting another charity event. His response to my "good for you's" is "I have to, I have to give back." Great guy, great staff, great place - go there!!!
Doc G is Magic
by FrankieDark at Citysearch
I found Doc G through his community involvement in my neighborhood and he's the only chiro who hasn't left me in pain afterward -- even with three appointments a week.
I'm a senior with a "misspent youth" (including a couple bike accidents) but it wasn't until I got rear-ended by Cell-Phone Girl in an SUV on 101 that I reluctantly decided to try chiro again on my old, and now fragile, bod.
Doc G is not only good at his profession, he's a good guy -- funny, caring, great energy, and his ice/massage beds are heaven.
Appointment times are flexible, you're in and out quick, there's parking and he's mega-reasonable on $.
You might even get greeted by Reilly the Friendly Dog. Big thanks, Doc.
Excellent treatment and professional care

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
Best Chiropractor in the Bay Area
by MeganZ at Citysearch
So I have been to 5+ different chiropractors from Palo Alto up to SF, and nobody has given me the relief from my pain like Dr. G. He is incredibly knowlegable, and after chatting to him and whining about my pains for a few minutes on the first visit, he knew just what to do to get me back to my pain-free self again!
I haven't been able to run for 3+ years because of mid-back pain, and I am happy to report I went for 2 jogs last weekend, and my back is still feeling good! I'm telling you, if you want results, go to Potrero Chiropractors. They arent the most cushy, softy, spa-y, chiropractor in the City, but if you are like me and just want RESULTS, this is the place to go. I feel 100% safe in Dr. G's care, and trust that when he schedules follow up appointments, it is because he thinks that is the best way to help me, rather than feeling like he is upselling me to make some money (which is the impression I have gotten from a number of other Chiropractor's I have encountered).
THANK YOU DR. G!!
- Pros: Effective adjustments, friendly doc and receptionist, rolly beds to ice on
- Cons: If I didnt work in the neighborhood it would be a pain to get to
Go see Doc G!

I started seeing Dr. Frank (aka Doc G) about 3 months now with cronic neck and upper back pains from flying too much. Not only did he imediately releive the pain, but the continual treatment (which is only 1x a month) plus the exercises he taught me have completely eliminated the pain. I really appreciate the ability to get in and get out fast AND get in with last minute notice (sorry I do this all the time Dr. Frank). I highly recommend Potrero. And honestly, I was really quite surprised how easy it was to find street parking around their office. A+ service.
