I've known Dr Gooing over 40 years. He is top notch in the profession. He has a brother who is also an OC chiropractor. Both quality men.

So shortly after getting my GYM RAT badge - I find myself injured and in severe pain. Lesson: Don't over do it at the gym. Gooing Chiropractic isn't one of those hole-in-wall chiropractors dispersed in Asian-American communities. It's a legit practice with it's own building. The office is clean, the staff is friendly and the wait isn't long at all. My chiropractor was Dr. Ko - a really cool guy who was really great at explaining everything to me since I had no clue - I had never been to a chiropractor before. He was genuinely concerned with my healing process and gave me tips to relieve back pressure during my 5 hour vegas drive. :) Generally I'll come here and go on the decompressor and then get the electrical simulation. My favorite part is when I get my neck adjusted. Makes me feel more balanced when I walk out. Btw, ask for the free x-rays/first exam deal for first time patients. :) read more

Here is a review years in the making! Way back in 1995 I had severe sciatica to the point that I was in what my wife calls the "S" shape. I'm sure some of you out there know what I'm talking about! Anyhow, my wife had read an article about Dr. Gooing and how he had been one of the Doctors to the U.S. Olympic wrestling team and decided to take me there against my will! I was not a fan of Chiropractors at all. Well Dr. Gooing changed my mind and made a believer of me to say the least. Firstly his bedside manner is how we all want a caring professional to be like. At the first appointment he simply stated that before he treated me he wanted to take X-rays to ensure I didn't have a herniated disk. That told me he wasn't some sort of quack. Ice and Motrin to reduce the swelling until the next day when he had me go back after they developed the images. It took a while back then. The next day I went back and he showed me the X-rays and explained what the process was. That same day I went from the "S" shape I walked in with to walking upright without any pain. I was completely out of words. I no longer live in OC but have always wanted to thank Dr. Gooing for the incredible compassionate care as he relieved my pain. I still tell the story to others who might want and need help from a beyond capable professional and tell them of Dr. Gooing. I only wish I was closer to his office to make his services my regular Chiropractor! Thanks again for everything! read more

Dr. Gooing is incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive. He is the only chiropractor I trust with my spine.

Do your back a favor and go see Dr. Gooing. read more

Our first experience at a Chiropractic was a pleasant one. My wife and I went in and saw Dr. Ko, who was very informative about what's causing our pain and what to do to help us feel better. We got to have X-rays today and it was nice to see all the bones that were out of place. I definitely recommend this place to anyone in pain. read more

Still can't believe this guy is getting away with his scam. Very expensive and a lot of what he says I advise you to research because most of his philosophy is messed up. read more

Dr G and Dr Ko are truly wonderful healers! Dr G runs a warm, inviting practice that encourages well-being and overall good health. Dr G's staff is very accommodating and works very hard to find appointments that fit a busy lifestyle. Dr G can help when all other doctors have given up. The body is a miraculous machine! See Dr G when you want it to work well! B read more

I saw the one bad review here and must say, that guy and his mom must not understand... or expect like most of medicine, just give me a pill and give me instant healing. Dr Gooing actually treats underlying causes, root causes and not just symptoms. He takes the time necessary to understand your condition and how to bring you to normal state of vibrant health. As the one lady's review said... they really help people heal. I am 60, was on 4 different medications for gout, cholesterol, back pain, irratable bowel. I have been going to Dr Gooing for a year... and now am on 0 medications, no "gout" which it never was,.. no irratble bowel... which it never was... the spine is totally flexible and strong and cholesterol is below 145 and good cholesterol is twice as high as ever.... I have never felt better or been healthier in the last 20 years.. He heals others just treat..... read more

I brought my mom in to see Dr. Gooing as I wanted her to experience QRA. We were visiting from out of town, and since there are no QRA practitioners where she lives, this was the best time for her to try it. I have a doc in my hometown that has helped me a great deal with the QRA. Sorry to say that our experience at Gooing Chiropractic was less than favorable. We waited for an hour after our appointment time before my mom was seen. The consultation was constantly interrupted by different employees coming into the room, then the doc that started the exam, was called to another task and a different doc took over. We felt like we were of little importance to them and that they were too busy to give us their time and attention. Since we were visiting, we decided to have some treatment while there, on the same day. The costs and course of treatment was not explained at all. We were taken from one room with one doc, to another room with another doc, then they put my mom under the laser for 30 mins; after that it was back to another room for an adjustment, then another room for the mud-pack to be explained. Oh, and my mom was also brought a clay mix to drink. So then we go to leave 4 hrs later, and the bill is $455!!! When we asked for an itemized bill, the receptionist rudely told us that she could not give us one because the "girl who does that is gone already". I had to call on Monday to get them to mail a bill to us so that we could actually know what the breakdown of the charges were. Turns out that every time we were taken to a different room or a different doc came in, we were charged for another "service". It would have been nice to have the treatment and costs explained to us in advance. There is more I could say about how unpleasant this whole experience was, but the saddest thing is that my mom was not helped at all. In fact, she was in more pain physically the days following the treatment at Gooing Chiropractic than she was before! This place gives chiropractic and QRA a bad name. Don't waste your time or money here. read more

Dr. Gooing and his staff really help people heal. I have referred more than 2 dozen people for treatment and their results have been excellent. I love the chiropractic and cold laser work. Very friendly staff. read more

Dr Gooing has been a real life saver for me! He is incredible at diagnosis even for the hardest to figure out problems. I drive two hours each way to see him. If that doesn't speak to his skill level I don't know what does. read more

After I lost my wife suddenly and unexpectedly 3 years ago, I found myself depressed and unmotivated to do anything. No matter what I did to "pull myself up by my boot straps", I could not overcome the feeling of carrying a thousand pound weight around my neck. I could not WILL myself past my incredibly painful loss. I had heard Dr. Gooing (Scottish I think) is one of the top alternative healers in the country. After a 3 hour comprehensive diagnosis (only $75!), Dr. Gooing told me physical and/or emotional traumas (from birth to the present), interrupts the electrical systems in the body(my paraphrased words). He then recommended a "Cold Laser" process, (I had never heard of it), along with natural supplements and clay drinks (yuk) to cleanse and rejuvenate my body. Also some (fantastic) chiropractic adjustments for hip and arm problems I had developed, which the 3 former Chiropractors I visited could not correct. His (unusual) tests found exactly when I had misc. traumas. The first trauma at birth( 20 hours of labor which I never consider was a trauma for me... till now), then at 10 years old(Mom & Dad got divorced), then a personal trauma at 30 years old, and my wife's sudden death(the only trauma I spoke of). So the first 3 traumas Dr. Gooing knew nothing about. At that moment... I became interested. With in 2 WEEKS of 3 treatments, I went from depressed and exhausted, to incredibly happy, joyful, and energized! 2 months and 10 visits later I feel better than I have in 20 years, or more! The cost is SOOOO reasonable, and the results I received are nothing short of miraculous! I now tell everyone about him which is why I felt obligated to spend this time to write a review so others may benefit from this "healer".His large staff and beautiful offices are a joy to visit. I happily drive over 40 minutes to see him weekly. I did not need a physiatrist like my well meaning friends suggested. . I needed Dr. Gooing's brilliant healing powers! Thank you Dr. Gooing. I am forever grateful for your God given talents. read more

Dr Gooing is an incredible healer and diagnostician. He has helped me immensely. I cannot say enough things about him.

Dr Gooing and Dr Ko have both been instrumental to my healing process. I greatly appreciate the knowledge and skill they show at Gooing Chiropractic. read more

We love Dr. Gooing. He's the only one that got rid of my lower back pain! Lived with it for 20 yrs!

Dr. Gooing and Dr. Ko are my dream team. Their expert QRA diagnosis, top of the line supplements, combined with genuine compassion put my health back on track. I've been on the holistic hunt for a good doctor since 2007, and joyfully my search stops here. They take time to listen to your concerns, they correct any misdiagnosis you've experienced, so you feel safe in their care. There is no greater QRA treatment you will find in the OC area than Dr Gooing and Dr Ko. read more

I've been going to Dr. Gooing for over 15 yrs. for different injuries and illnesses. Car accident, carpal tunnel, a bad fall, digestive (QRA), and now I'm taking my 9 year old to him and Dr. Ko for QRA/Kinesiology/homeopathic medicines. Dr. Gooing and his staff have always been very helpful and accommodating. He is very knowledgeable, and kind. I have made several recommendations to him over the years, and everyone is still happy with him, and his level of service. PS- he is a Doctos' Doctor...I saw my old Chiropractor in Dr. Gooings waiting office before...kind of akward! but it just goes to show you Dr. Gooing is the better chiropractor! read more

Dr. Gooing and his staff were able to correctly diagnose and treat my husband who had been diagnosed 20+ years ago with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, (CFS), also known at Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, (ME). His symptoms ranged from splitting headaches, dizziness, upper and lower back pain, extreme fatigue, muscle aches, intestinal trouble, and general malaise, all resulting in depression. Until we tried Dr. Gooing, the best he'd been offered was treatment of symptoms while the misery continued on. Our family life was affected deeply. And then we called Dr. Gooing, who with applied kinesiology, cold laser, and centuries-old wisdom/nutrition helped his body to heal itself. My husband was treated for a cluster of ailments that once gone allowed his body to heal itself. Today, he no longer needs to sleep all weekend and his brain-fog and pain are resolved. He has his stamina back. He is a healthy new man. After two decades of searching for a cure or someone who could heal my loved one and now finding that help in Dr. Gooing and his staff, I am humbled and grateful to God that he has let my husband and I share some healthy years together in this world. Dr. Gooing really does make sick people well. SUGGESTION: making an appointment ahead of time is HIGHLY recommended. The staff can sometimes schedule in last minute office visits if requested but in this case, EXPECT a wait; sometimes an hour, sometimes longer. They are always VERY busy on Saturdays, other days can vary. If Dr. Gooing were not so effective at treating his patients this would not be the case. In response to a previous negative post; gratitude is always a good response in all circumstances, even when we are disappointed. If anyone is ever less than satisfied with their experience at Gooing Chiropractic, it's best to share that concern with the Dr. He is always ready to listen. read more

I was first introduced to chiropractic care at the age of four and have been adjusted by a number of chiropractors over the years. I have been going to Dr. Gooing for about 10 years now and highly recommend him. He uses a "unique" method in adjusting hips, which is less painful for a tender lower back. Dr. Gooing and his staff are cordial and will get you in for an adjustment on short notice, if required. read more

After being hit at a red light I had severe pain and stiffness at the base of my neck and shoulder areas. I was x-rayed and examined by the doctors and thoroughly questioned about my health history. I improved with my treatments and therapies and was released from care after 4 months with a routine of stretches and exercises to continue my stability. I still follow their recommended regimen and have continued to stay pretty stable in my health after the injury. I was very pleased with the professional care and attention that I received while being a patient at Gooing Chiropractic Clinic. I have referred some close friends and family to Dr.Gooing for treatment also. read more

I have not had a very good experience with this place...I have been going since November, and since then have been charged around $1,600. They have a one size fits all approach, and want everybody to follow their exact protocol. They make a lot of claims that I'm not sure are backed up with any kind of evidence other than anecdotal. The staff is super friendly, kind, and accomodating. I really wanted to like this place. But they want everybody to get on board with an extremely expensive protocol, and i question the safety sometimes. for example, they kept forgetting I was on 3 different prescription medications, and wnated to prescribe me 29 supplement pills a day, plus several tablespoons of liquid vitamins. Most of the supplements had repeat ingredients. Also, every time I went, I had to ASK to be adjusted. I didn't feel like they were really looking at me as an individual. I have no doubt Dr. Gooing is probably a great chiropractor, but I think he's lost touch with that with all his new NET and detox protocol. I shouldn't have to ask to be adjusted at a chiropractor's office, and 3 out of 6 times i've gotten worse from the adjustment. I coudln't go back to get it corrected, because Dr. Gooing was on a trip. I ended up going to different chiropractor nearby, and in one adjustment, he fixed what Dr. Gooing and Dr. Andrews had messed up in my neck and upper back. I think perhaps they've lost touch with basic chiropractic. I would not recommend this place to somebody who needs a lot of individual attention like myself, and who needs to be "in control" of their treatment plan. They don't explainj much to you, and what they do explain, doesn't really make sense to the layperson. If you've got back problems, I'd recommend going somewhere else. If you're extremely sick (and have a lot of money!) then maybe this could be the right place for you. read more
