I've been going to Spence Chiropractic for years and have always had a great experience. They genuinely care about their patients and consistently go out of their way to be accommodating, especially when it comes to navigating constantly changing insurance coverage. Insurance can be confusing and frustrating, but they really make an effort to help you understand your options and work with you so you can continue getting the care you need. You can tell they value long-term relationships with their patients and want to make treatment as accessible as possible. read more

Highly recommend. I've seen huge improvements since my accident, and from day one the entire staff has been welcoming and professional. Every visit has been a positive experience. Dr. Talamantes, Terry, and Spence are all excellent at what they do skilled, and consistent in their care. I always feel confident in the treatment I'm receiving and leave feeling better after each visit. The front desk team is amazing, always friendly, welcoming, and organized, which truly makes the overall experience that much better. I'm very grateful for the care I've received throughout my recovery. read more

1 Star I had a very disappointing and uncomfortable experience at Spence Chiropractic. I came in with serious back and neck pain, but the therapy machine was only used for about 8 minutes, which is clearly not enough. When I politely asked if I could get a few more minutes, the female staff member became rude and yelled at me instead of addressing my concern professionally. Another woman called Tania then said, "You got the wrong woman today," which was completely inappropriate and unprofessional. As a patient in pain, I should not be spoken to that way. The chiropractor ( Terry Riley D.C) barely adjusted me just a quick touch on my back and then said I was done. I spent more time waiting than actually receiving treatment. There was no care, no listening, and no effort to help my condition. This place made me feel rushed, disrespected, and not taken seriously as a patient. I do not recommend Spence Chiropractic to anyone looking for proper treatment or respectful staff. read more

I've been coming to the center for a while and do not have anything but good things to say about the center. Dr. Terry and Dr. Talamantes are wonderful at what they do and great professionals in their field. They listen attentively to what brings me in (and each time it is my stubborn overworked back muscle) and focus their efforts on the area of concern. Every time I leave the office, I am pain free. They also work with my insurance which makes pricing attractive than out of pocket centers. read more

The best staff ever. Very welcoming and show pride in their practice. Everyone is so friendly and the care is exceptional.

I was skeptical at first and thought it would be ineffective. But the staff is wonderful and the doctors are nice and patient. I was lucky enough to see Dr. Spencer himself a few times, he is great. There's a young looking hot guy that is really good too. He is so sweet. Listens really well, actually works with you. I think his name is Dr. Talmantes not sure? Can't find him on the website. Front desk staff is great at their job and scheduling. Only reason I'm switching is because I don't have my own car and it's hard for me to make the appointments as I live in downtown and just found a chiro in the downtown area recently. I'll miss them though! read more

Been going here for more than a month now and it's been a AMAZING experience! On my first day there I notice my name on a welcome wall which was so cute and heart warming! All the ladies are soo sweet and always help me when I have a questions, DR.T is amazing and makes me feel great after every visit ! Definitely recommend coming here! read more

Spence Chiropractic Center - Chiropractic table - Chiropractors Near Me - San Diego, California

How this place got 4.5 star reviews is mind boggling This place was such a waste of my time. I called to schedule an appt and I gave them my insurance info over the phone. Day of my appt when I walked in, I asked how long it would take to get seen and the receptionist said not long at all. I waited an hour for them to tell me that I wasn't covered through my insurance, I assured them I was and asked them to double check with my provider. After waiting over an hour I said I would leave and come bk after they figure out my insurance situation. They never called me. I then called them several hours later and they said they were in a meeting and would call me bk. THEY NEVER CALLED ME BK that day. 3 days later the reception calls me to see if I want to schedule an appt, I asked if they figured out my insurance cuz I've been waiting for 3 days and she replied with " I will make a note and call you bk." Guess what?! No one called me back!!! And for the record I also called my insurance company and they picked up within 30 seconds and verified I was covered for chiropractic work. Like who TF is running this place???!!!!! Cuz the front desk and whoever handles insurances are clearly incompetent: Waste of my MF TIME!! read more

Staff don't know what they're doing. I called a week ago to check if they took my ins even gave them my info said no problem that they would call me if there was a problem. No call so I thought everything was good. Showed up waited for an hr. Then she comes out and tells me they don't take my ins. WHAT A WASTE. Also sitting there remined me of a fast food at peak time restaurant. shove them shove them out Even if they took my ins I would not go back. You make the call but i would go some where else read more

I am so glad I found Spence Chiropractic Center. I was having so much backpain and having a curved spine didn't help my situation. Dr. Spence and his Team helped to relief my pain. read more

Spence Chiropractic Center - Outside - Chiropractors Near Me - San Diego, California

See all

I was in a car accident where I hurt my neck back and head. I woke up every morning with a migraine so bad I would cry and stay in bed all day, I had terrible back and neck pain that limited my physical activity. My insurance suggested Spence Chiropractic and I within the first 3 weeks I started noticing a difference in how I felt! I'm so happy and relieved that I can go back to living a normal life ! This place provides great fast service and they're super flexible with times which I'm so grateful for read more

Paid ahead of time for 18 sessions. They never told me my last sessions was the session beforehand, told me to pay for the session I just did. Like what???? I needed to go for more sessions, the lady in the front told me she will call me back to pay after 20 min cuz they were busy. She never did and til this day, they never asked or called for checkup. Horrible read more

Let's be real, you'd only even consider this place if you lived in the apartments above or if referred by an attorney. If your attorney suggests this spot, ask to go somewhere else. This place is a complete joke! Every time I've been scheduled, I've had to wait absurd amounts of time to be seen. They text you incessantly to remind you of your appt time but when you arrive you have to wait for at least 20 minutes to be seen. On Monday, I waited 45 minutes until I went off on the staff! They said they would add me to the "no wait" list(why is there a list for this?!) and told me to come at 12pm Bc that's the best time to be in and out! I drove from La Jolla and was even 2 minutes early(WHILE ON MY LUNCH BREAK) and after 20 minutes of not being seen, I told the front desk girls I was leaving. All they can say is "we understand". Your understanding doesn't mean anything if you can't fix the problem. They have ZERO respect for the patients time. I let my attorney know and will be finding a new chiropractor! Oh & they definitely don't clean the chairs, tables, or the stimulation controller. Some people do but most don't. I've watched during my long waits -_- read more

Absolutely the best Chiropractor in San Diego I had a horrible pain in my neck and lower back ( I couldn't sleep well or walk ) after treatment, I'm 99% better. If you are looking for a good chiropractor do not waste your time Spence Chiropractor is the best hands down PS thanks for pain relief. read more

Everyone in this office is truly awesome and caring. I was in a car accident a few months ago and went in for follow up evaluation and treatment. I was impressed at the professionalism of all staff and expertise of both Dr. Spence and Dr. Terry. They even had in-house x-rays and discussed and explained exactly what was going on with my spine. The weekly adjustments have made a huge difference to speed up my recovery, and the massage chair therapy prior to each adjustment is heavenly! I plan to continue as a regular after my accident/related treatments are complete, and even consider Dr. Spence as my "primary care physician" because of the focus on maintaining wellness holistically. Thanks Spence Chiro, you guys are awesome! And what a lovely office vibe as well, such calming and soothing art, decor, and streaming video education! read more

Always a pleasure coming in for my weekly adjustments! The ladies in the front of the office are so genuine and welcoming! There's so many interesting facts around the lobby informing you about chiropractic care and it's benefits! So happy I found this place when I was is such stress pain because of my neck and back pain! Dr. Riley has always been great to me and has me leaving feeling like brand new! I Highly recommend getting adjusted on the regular! This is a good place to start read more

Spence Chiropractic Center - Chiropractors Near Me - San Diego, California

The main chiropractor that runs this office is incredibly greedy. He asked me for $2500 on hand to be treated for a few measly sessions. I have never had any chiropractor ask me for that much on hand, and I've been to plenty of chiropractic offices. I live at this complex and he told me that was the price after a discount. Then he continues to start explaining to me how he get paid from insurances, and he needs that money. I personally don't care. I'm not here to make you money, I am here for treatment. He does not give a hoot about your health. He is very cheap and only wants money. If you're looking for a healer go elsewhere. read more

5 stars all the way gladly girl friend let me know about this place ...everybody at this office made me feel great and secure about my road to recovery... read more

Spence Chiropractic Center - I m trying to win the pot of gold..lol - Chiropractors Near Me - San Diego, California

Had the best massage! I usualltdo chiropractic visit, but had a massage this time. Yui was amazing! Never felt so relaxed!! Thank you!!

Super knowledgeable, friendly, professional and effective. Never though I'd be able to afford chiropractic care without insurance but they really made it affordable and worth my time. Dr Spence and Terry are really awesome at their job. I had trouble walking and running before I started my chiropractic care, only 1 month in I'm already back to running 30 mins a day again! I'm so blessed and grateful to be able to recover so fast and Align my body so it works at its full capacity . I recommend everyone to look into chiropractic treatment, even if you're not hurting it's still good to make sure you are properly aligned. Thank you Spence Chiropractic ! Also I don't know what that review below mine is saying by Sarah A. The front desk people are the friendliest people I've ever met. They always remember my name and make sure I'm taken care of. Sounds like she's having a bad day and taking it out on this business. It doesn't even sound like she's a client. read more

Great place, no pain in the bottom and leg when I attended 3 days a week it definitely works.

Amazing amazing chiropractic center! The staff was incredibly kind and professional. The front desk workers always referred to me by name and always made me feel welcome. Dr. Spence was extremely kind as well as the other doctors I had the pleasure of meeting. They always performed their work very efficiently and always held genuine conversation. Not to mention it's located in a very lovely and beautiful plaza and I never had difficult finding parking not even once. I went in with severe lower back pains and after my visits I now feel little to no back pains at all. Highly recommend! read more

Was trying to get a chiropractor in the area because I got into an accident and I felt very unwelcomed on my first day of being here for my evaluation. The second day they didn't want to open during their usual hours, some of staff is friendly, it's just very unfortunate to look for somewhere to be taken care of and not being taken care of . read more

While visiting San Diego over the years, I have seen all of the doctors at Spence Chiropractic Center. They have always accommodated my schedule and always helped me to feel better during my visits. The doctors take the time to explain my condition and what they are going to do before treating me...no surprises! This place is really amazing and I'm so happy to have found it! Plus everyone who works there is so so nice! read more

This place is for you if you like showing up at your appointment time but wait another extra hour! Ladies at the front desk are very rude and don't respect their patients time! I showed up at my 10:30am appointment and the chiropractor adjusted me at 11:30! I sit there for an extra hour and because of that I was like late to work...How is this ok?! I understand you maybe have a lot of patients but running an extra HOUR behind is not OK! Oh and they charged me $90 for the first visit and did not even do X-rays! I had to sent the X-rays I had by email to this office! Very disappointed! read more
