Love Dr. Lacerda and his staff. Always very friendly. I started going to Dr. Lacerda when my child was a baby. He has been adjusting the family for nearly 10 years now. My child now asks to go see him to help "fix" her. read more

This doctor would be a great used car salesman. He may be a fine doctor as well, but his demeanor is so off-putting, I never made it that far. He is very condescending and pushes a contract on you after the evaluation (which of course tells you that you will have an early death if you do not get treatment). The contract is a trap that basically puts you in a situation that if you try to get out, you owe him money. Be careful of this man!!! read more

DO NOT RECOMMEND! Id like to preface this by saying this is the first bad review I have ever written. I went in as a first time patient with hopes to get an adjustment. He told me upon arrival that I wouldn't get an adjustment, but I'd get a free consultation which was fine with me. After the first 5 minutes, he said he normally does x-rays but shied away from the cost. After the appointment was over, I was charged almost $200 without getting adjusted. I told him and his receptionist that I live in Palo Alto and that I'd be back as soon as possible to get the actual adjustment. Fast forward 3 days later and I've already driven 40 minutes and I'm 11 minutes late to my appointment due to rush hour traffic. I told the receptionist that I had already driven a long ways but they refused to see me and I had to turn around and go back to Palo Alto. They were open for more than an hour after the turned me down. Needless to say, I feel they had very little regard for my time and their customer service was horrendous. I would not go back nor would I recommend them. read more

I have been going to Dr. Mike for 5 years. When I first walked into his office I couldn't sit in a chair for more than 15 minutes without pain in my lower back. With continued treatment and maintenance for my ongoing back problems, I have been able to live an active life and I have taken several strokes off my golf game. The ongoing treatment I feel is the one thing that sets Dr. Mike apart from other Chiropractors I've been to. He is committed to lifelong health and he has even helped my wife and children with their ailments. read more

Dr. Lacerda has helped me to live without pain, it was the best decision I could have made when I was in so much pain and looking for relief. Dr. Lacerda is very profesional and does a very thorough examination along with an extensive and clear explanation of the issue with our body. His office is very relaxed, flexible and I could say a happy place, super friendly. Since I started treatment, the improvement I felt was very noticeable and I love how I feel free of pain, I would definitely recommend Chiropractic treatment with Dr. Lacerda. read more

I've been going to Dr. Lacerda for over 15 years now. I had come from another chiropractor who I went to see because I was in a car accident and in a lot of pain. I had seen him for a while when he told me I should take a break-almost as if I were making the whole thing up. Soon after I was referred to Dr. Lacerda by someone I know. Dr. Lacerda is a very kind person and cares about his patients as well as being knowledgeable in what he is talking about. My back isn't hunched over anymore and to this day it is still improving. The office is clean and everyone is very friendly. I would highly recommend Dr. Lacerda for your Chiropractic care. read more

What earlier reviewer Kat says is still true nowadays. I went there for about 3 months and noticed health benefits in the 160 second sessions I received, but after going to another chiropractor in MH I realized that I was getting 10% of what I should've received for my money. I always felt pushed around by paperwork, request for recommendations, condescending questions about chiropractice itself, etc... My biggest complaint though is the utter lack of respect for my time. Don't bother scheduling your appointment, you'll always have to wait 15-30 minutes and receive absolutely no explanation on why everybody has to go through that. read more

I have gone to several chiropractors, and Lacerda is the most thorough I have seen yet.

I have been going to Lacerda Chiropractic for 5 months now and I can honestly say that I have my spunk back. It took a few months of treatment to get to where I am today but it is worth it. I am finally going back to the gym and not complaining every day about my back and neck hurting... I was taking 4 ibuprofens two times a day, and that has stopped as well. I am sure my stomach is thanking me for that! Dr. Mike makes sure that you understand why you need chiropractic care, how fixing your subluxations will benefit your overall health, and he makes sure through x-rays that you should receive chiropractic care. It isn't a quick fix by any means, and you really need to be dedicated to getting better. You need to keep up with your appointments and make sure that you go even when you are feeling better. I highly recommend Lacerda Chiropractic! read more

My husband has been going to Dr. Lacerta for several months and has become a different person. I no longer have to buy Ibuprofen by the case load and he has realized he does not have to live with pain! The office is inviting and family run which is always nice. 5 stars from our family! read more

Our whole family goes to Dr.Mike and I cannot say enough about him. I have been to several chiropractors over the years for sporting injuries sustained in my younger days and some just cannot get you the relief that you need. Dr. Mike really focuses on getting the adjustment done right and has a great technique. I feel a lot better after several months of treatment and my whole family are reporting feeling better and healthier as a result. I would definitely recommend this practice. The office staff are also incredibly accommodating and friendly. They really make you feel important and foster a great atmosphere. We will be customers here for life! read more

Do not give this jerk your business. We parked in his back lot AFTER HOURS (he was already closed). He had a not-very-well-lit sign that said the parking was for customers only. The lot was empty besides for our car. We were right across the street at Ladera grill as we watched our car get towed away. It cost us $17 dollars for a cab and $300 dollars to get our car back from the tow company, all as part of our son's 16th birthday. I was told by the staff at Ladera he does this ALL THE TIME, and that the Ladera management has even offered to pay him to let their customers park in his lot, but he refuses. DO NOT GIVE THIS PERSON YOUR BUSINESS. read more

Dr. Mike is dedicated to helping people be healthy. He is a fine doctor. The only downside is his approach can seem condescending. For example, he often quizzes you to see if you are learning the health information he believes you should know to be on the road to good health. You either appreciate this approach because you feel he's helping you learn or you resent this approach because you feel like you're being treated like a third grader. He does want you to sign a contract but as far as I know this is quite common in chiropractic care. Overall, he is a great doctor and his staff is friendly and efficient. read more

Dr. Lacerda is extremely professional! His extreme amount of knowledge of his profession was amazing. I came armed with questions and concerns and after I left his office all of my questions and a lot of my pain was alliviated. I would recommend him to anyone! read more
