Dr. Bagherian has been treating me for neck pain resulting from Shingles. He is using a laser treatment which combines the feeling of massage and heat, though it is a real Class 4 laser. It has really helped! These treatments make me feel better right away, and it has reduced the level of chronic pain. Dr. B is a delightful personality, and very knowledgeable. I am so pleased that I discovered this office and Dr. Bagherian. Highly recommended! read more

Wow! This was the most intense and detailed exam I have ever seen. I brought my dad in for an exam with Dr. Bagherian. Dr. Bagherian is very professional and his office is very clean. This is worth saying when comparing this office to others I've been to. The exam itself was crazy detailed and Dr Bagherian explained everything step by step and kept asking for my dads well being and if it was ok to continue. This was a 6 hour exam. The doc also offered my dad a break since some of these test can be a bit intense (especially under pain as you can imagine). We felt very comfortable and welcomed. The office is nice, clean, and there are tons of memorabilia to look at. Also, thank god he has assigned parking for clients, right in front of the building too. Thank you Dr. Bagherian. read more

I met Dr. B a few years ago through a mutual friend (Serena M.) who sang the praises of his work in her rehabilitation journey through some pretty nasty incidents in her life. I had met him and his staff before years ago and always remembered the professionalism and the kindness they exhibited towards patients and visitors in their office. When i was involved in a bad car accident earlier this summer, I pretty much knew who I was going to get referred to and go to for management of my case and well-being. My initial consultation was thorough and very eye-opening in terms of what an accident can do to a body below the surface. Detailed accounts of the accident were taken for my insurance company and X-rays were taken and analyzed. I sure felt like a broken remnant from the island of misfit toys, but was reassured that I could be brought back to about 95% of my old, natural, mobile self. Dr. B listens and has quite an extensive background in his field, as well as experience in his personal life that I trust all comes into play with his diagnosis of patients and willingness to actually listen to and hear what they say. I came to Dr. B with popped ribs, severe upper back pain, shoulder pain, lower back pain and pretty much the pelvic tilt of someone whose lower body decided to leave their upper half behind. Slowly but surely, we're working on getting me back into alignment and able to do a little more each visit. The front desk girls are angels. Always greeting me with a smile, accommodating my schedule needs (it's quite a haul on public transit from downtown Oakland, oy) but they seem to fit me in when I need to be there (Bart strike be damned!). They are always on top of scheduling and reminders and always make sure to listen to a patient's request and needs. After a long work day it's always nice to be greeted with a smile and sincerity. Overall, I would recommend Dr. Bagherian and his staff to anyone. I would hope nothing tragic brings you there, but if you do end up in his office, you're in good hands. read more

Synapse Health Center - Chiropractors Near Me - San Francisco, California

I have been seeing Dr. Ali for over 10 years and he is awesome! I especially reccomend Dr. Ali to anyone who fights professionally or practices martial arts. His experiences as a martial artist help him undersand your fighting and training injuries. You might be wondering why I would need to see a chiropractor every week for over 10 years, I mean if he was good I'd be cured and not need to go anymore right? WRONG!! A little about me, I've lived a very active life (I'm 45) I used to skateboard (in empty pools with no pads), I was a bike messenger (multiple crashes), I raced motorcycles (more crashes), and I love martial arts including Brazilian Jiujitsu (dislocating joints) but now I am mostly focused on Muaythai (smashing my fists) and a little MMA. I've had mulitple knee surgeries (ACL, 2 meniscus repairs, micro fracture proceedure, reshaping of my patella, In addition to breaking it once) What Dr. Ali does for me is not heal me, he keeps me going, and allows me to perform at a level that far exceeds what one could normally expect from such a well worn body. I first went to Dr. Ali when I dislocated my shoulder doing Jiujitsu. I couldn't even lift my arm when I walked in and left his office with full range of motion. My weekly visit includes the usual spine cracking (adjustment) that keeps me in balance and seems to keep my neck nice and supple for good head movement (avoiding punches) and my hips loose (higher kicks). Plus I have this pesky rib that doesn't like to stay where it belongs and he puts it in its place. Normal sort of chiropractor stuff. What Dr. Ali does that seems amazing to me, is he sets my wrists (damaged by all the cycling and crashing, aggravated by all the punching) my thumbs and my ankles. He can tell just by looking at me and the way I move what is wrong, I don't have to tell him. Sometimes my IT (illeal-tibial or something) band is tight and pulling my hips and spine and he helps me stretch it. The bottom line is, I shouldn't be able to be as active as I am with all the wear and tear I have put on my body, but Dr. Ali keeps me going so I can continue to train, play with my kids, and live an enjoyable, active life. read more

I found Dr. B on Yelp and started seeing him about 3 weeks ago. I have been struggling with piriformis pain since October or November of 2010 (post hip surgery recovery side effect). I started going to Dr. B because of this deep tissue laser therapy that I had read about. This laser therapy is very expensive and to be honest, I would sell my kidney if I had to in order to relieve my piriformis pain. He did offer me a trial treatment, but steered me away from it for now because he thinks that he can make it go away without the expense. I'm begging for the expense and he's refusing. He was the first person to actually adjust my pelvis even though I've been in PT for more than a year and had visited another chiropractor - everyone said my pelvis was off and they would just tug at my foot, but Dr. B actually adjusted it. Amazing, right? We are working through the pain (honestly, I just want to cut the piriformis out, but I think I kind of need it if I ever want to be active again), but what I'm finding most comforting is that I get emails from Dr. B always encouraging me and asking me how I'm doing - even willing to see me on a Friday night when I was hurting most. I imagine one day this piriformis will decide to go to sleep, but until then I'm very happy working with Dr. B and I have already recommended him to a co-worker. Finding the right doctors can be very frustrating and emotionally exhaustive, but regardless of what is hurting you if chiropractic is the route for you then I would recommend you start here instead of ending here. Take care! read more

It is with great pleasure I offer my highest acclaim to the Synapse Health Center team.

I was in an auto accident 4 months ago, and experienced discomfort in my neck, shoulders, and back area. Dr. B is amazing! I've never had a chiro that has given me such relief. There's still a long road ahead for me, but I think Dr. B will be able to help me resolve my pain areas permanently once treatment is completed. I would highly recommend Dr. B to anyone that is having pain or discomfort, and in need of an adjustment:) read more

Dr. B is great! I was recommended to his office by my sister after being rear ended by an idiot a while back. His treatments were very helpful and he really understands and listens to you as a patient. I always felt relaxed- so relaxed that i've actually fallen asleep a few times :x Everyone in his office is nice and welcoming. Highly recommended! read more

Dr. Bagherian is absolutely amazing. I was being treated by another chiropractor for several months after being rear ended in April of 2012. I was only getting temporary relief after that chiropractor gave me an adjustment which he assured me, was a case of severe whiplash. Exactly 3 months after I started treatment, I relapsed and the pain was so excruciating. I couldn't move my head or raise my arms. I didn't need much convincing that there was something else going on with my neck. I found Dr. Bagherian on Yelp after reading the reviews. I called his office and Belinda booked me an appointment to see him the next day. Not only is Dr. B a wonderful, charming man, he truly is passionate about his job. He asked me if I had x-rays taken after I was transported to the emergency room, I did not. Astonished, he took a set of x-rays himself and found a torn ligament in my neck. He and his team have taken excellent care of me since then. I ended my treatment with him in late December of 2012. I'm happy to say that Dr. Bagherian gave me back my mobility as well as my peace of mind. read more

It's been a while since I've written a review, and thought that my last experience with my chiropractor deserved a great review. I've seen several different chiropractors over the last decade in San Francisco, and Dr. Bagherian at Synapse Health Center is the rock star of chiropractors. I was suffering from a tweaked lower back, and within one visit, Dr. Bagherian was able to relieve my pain. I've since seen him several times, and with the same result - no pain. Not only does he treat the injury, he works with you so that it doesn't happen again. He's on the cutting edge of new treatments, and takes the time to explain to you what he's prescribing and why. He has volumes of experience with athletes and knows how to treat those aches and pains that we all suffer from. He's a world class tennis player, as well as golfer, and can relate to the injuries that those sports inflict upon its players. Dr. Bagherian treats several professional athletes from the bay area, as well as visiting athletes from other professional teams. You will be glad you went to see him. read more

I'm gonna give my take on chiropractors with regards to my recent experience concerning my lower left back,hip and pelvis area. Three weeks ago during an amazing day at Heavenly I encountered a a highly painful and incapacitating incident. I had a nasty fall snowboarding...now I'm feeling awesome again! What happened? Well lets just say walking for more than 5 min, sitting up or down, switching from one position to another, and almost anything else except laying flat on my back caused extreme stiffness, deep aches, sharp lighting bolt pain and just plain feeling down. I couldn't do anything. I felt helpless. I couldn't put on my own socks. It was terrible. After having a conversation with another chiropractor she told I should seek out someone else you might be familiar with more therapy options within the chiro world. I read and found the reviews of the Synapse Health Center and what people were saying about Dr.Bagherian. I thought this could be the right fit I was looking for. During the first appointment he took his time to check what was actually wrong with my body and listened carefully to what I was explaining about the situation. He really made it clear to me what was happening and why I was feeling the way I did. After just a few sessions I had 75% more movement and the pain subsided dramatically. Swelling went down and the deep aching was reduced. I knew then that Dr.Bagherian really knew what he was doing and his memorabilia of pro athletes etc was no joke. He really understood how this feeling of not being able to perform the simplest tasks is detrimental to everyday life and the importance of playing an active sport is to having a full filling life. I'm very happy with this place and have already recommended it to my friends who have body alignment issues. I'm really thankful for everything turning out so well. I knew nothing coming into this place and now I have complete trust going back there. Thank you again, Sean read more

I have had several treatments at Synapse Health Center the past 3 years. Mostly for my "runners" knee and on occasion my lower back area. Dr. Bagherian has always been very thorough with his examinations BEFORE he does any treatments; always making sure the patient understands what is going on. Comforting to know that a Doctor will not just go in and adjust your body without explaining to you what is CAUSING the problem, not just fixing it. His staff is very attentive, polite and thorough. I was very impressed by the way he takes the time to warm up specific body areas with heat before treatments; this makes his treatments more comfortable since the muscles are able to be relaxed prior to adjustments. This process alone can take sometimes up to 15-20 minutes No sense of being "hurried" out of the office, unlike other doctors might do when they are trying to cram multiple patients in a set time period. Not sure how the previous poster knows he does work with lawyers on "leans." Is that a normal conversation? read more

For PJ Jamison: 12 or more years ago I began to have severe sciatic pain and Iliotibial Band pain. It got so bad I would stop on the street and hold on to something to wait for the spasms of pain to subside and try to get my breath back. The pain interfered with my job, woke me at night a number of times each night, and sitting through a short dinner party was impossible. The kind of pain I was in robs a person of quality of life and laughter. I had tried all the regular and complementary medical options I could find; SI joint injections; physical therapy; cortisone shots; huge does of pain pills and muscle relaxers; acupuncture and others. I had heard of cold laser helping pain years ago, so I did my homework. I believe I found the best quality laser and someone who knew how to use it. Dr. Bagherian and his staff are kind and welcoming. I felt I had realistic expectations. If I could get rid of 20% of my pain- I'd be thrilled. He suggested I have a certain number within a certain time limit and commit to those treatments. And I did. The process is fairly quick and doesn't hurt at all. The first few sessions I felt like it was making a difference, but I waited in case this was the placebo effect. (wishful thinking) Placebo can be a powerful presence when you have extreme pain. I could not imagine this really making a that big a difference in my pain. But I continued to improve. It's been 3 months. I just came home and bounced up the stairs I used to crawl up. No hesitation-no pain. I'm 62- I work long days walking a lot and lifting a lot. I love my job! And now I can do it better & faster and be able to come home and enjoy life with my awesome husband with no down time. Will this lack of pain last forever? Who knows? Will I have other pains I need taken care of? I'm 62 - of course I will. But I know I would not hesitate a second to go back for more or recommend my best friend to Dr. B's care. It was worth so much more than I paid to get rid of the agony I was in. If you have pain--you are crazy not to try this option. I'm just sorry it took me so long. read more

I came here after having an un-pleasant experience in another Chiropractic office. First I must say the atmosphere, vibe, and PROFESSIONALISM was definately something I appreciated while completing my paperwork when I arrived for my first visit/consultation & treatment. The office staff are very polite and friendly with the patients. The office was clean and orderly upon arriving (Definately a plus, as some Dr.'s offices are over crowded with people and cluttered with magazines). Prior to receiving treatment I sat down and discussed what exactly I was in the office for with the Doc- followup to an auto accident injury. I appreciate that he is direct and straight-forward. Keeps it simple and sweet to understand. No mumbo jumbo words thrown in to confuse you. Dr Bagherian took time to thoroughly go over the details of my therapy/treatment and briefly discussed my auto accident with me. His overall consultation was more thorough and in depth than the previous clinic I had attended. In fact I found out my injuries were more severe than I was originally informed post accident. Another important factor, as I am limited on time with my weekly schedule to make appointments or "add in non-existing time slots", during my first treatment visit Dr. Bagherian promised to get me in and out at a designated time which he succeeded in making happen. Additional points for this =) Parking is limited. And street parking is available, bring coins for the meter. Public transportation is probably best recommended. Don't park at Laurel Village shopping area unless you plan to make a purchase, you'll risk getting a ticket or car being towed.. After my first visit, the little treatment that was performed, my back and neck started to loosen up and feel more relaxed upon leaving the office. I am very pleased with the referral I received to seek treatment from Dr. Bagherian. I will be back for more treatment. read more

I have been training and competing in Jiu Jistu for about 5 years, I also work in construction, ride dirt bikes and motorcycles, and pretty much enjoy doing things that lead to injuries. If you have done any of these things then you know the punishment that you have to put your body through to be competitive. Andrew B. introduced me to Dr Ali after I complained about neck and back pain after training. Once I started receiving treatments from Dr Ali, I was hooked. Of course I have received the standard chiropractic adjustments, but where he has really saved my ass was when I've had more acute injuries. I dislocated my collar bone once while training, and not only did he adjust it back in to place (several times), but he even taught me how to tape it in place and special-ordered the tape for me so I could continue to train for an up coming competition. If you train Jiu Jitsu, MMA, or just lead an active lifestyle then I highly recommend Dr Ali's services. read more

I met Dr. Bagherian because of a motor bicycle accident. In short it was the first and last time that I will be on one. Due to this accident I have chronic back pains (which I did not have prior to this accident). It also does not help that I am full time student and work with children all day. So as you can imagine my back tends to hurt a lot. I have been a patient of Dr. B for roughly two years now and he still takes the best care of me. He is professional and has fantastic bedside manner. Also, Belinda his assistant is wonderful. She will take great care of you and is very attentive! A few things to note: There is parking available behind the building reserved for his patience but these spots tend to fill up. Meter parking is pretty easy to find but if you do not want to pay for parking street parking can be found, but is very difficult! The office is opened late, which is great for us working folk! Below are details regarding my treatment. Feel free to skip it but it may help to know a little bit about my background; however, Dr. B is the person to see if you are in need of some adjusting (literally). --- Following my accident I went to Dr. B. We went over what happened in the accident and he took x-rays and measurements for assessment. My treatment included a few months of me visiting the office three times a week and slowly progressed to two and then as you may have guessed to one. Treatment included a machine that sends some sort of vibrations, and a hot pack. After a few minutes of that Dr. B comes in for the adjustment. You leave feeling refreshed and "fixed". I do not need weekly treatment anymore but I go to Dr. B when I am feeling a bit out of shape. He always does a great job putting me back together. If you are feeling an ache or pain and are in need of a chiro go to Dr. B! read more

I was referred to Dr. Ali Bagherian by my mother's boss. My feet were in terrible condition where I was constantly in pain whenever I ran. Dr. Bagherian confirmed that I was flat footed which causing me to have Achilles tendinitis, shin splits, inflammation on my arches, causing stress to my I.T. ban and calves, back aches , and developments of bunions. Also Dr. Harrison agreed to Dr. Bagherian's diagnosis. Both of which advise me to get orthotics. I have been attending Synapse Health Center for laser treatment with Dr. Bagherian for the past two weeks. I have had 6 treatments and without a doubt see an improvement, well feel an improvement. The laser treatment is the BEST thing ever that man could ever make. After 3 treatments my Achilles tendinitis healed as well as the inflammation. Dr. Bagherian treated my shin splints with the laser. With the advisement of both Dr. Bagherian and Dr. Harrison I got some well made orthotics from On the Run store in SF. That made all the difference. My current orthotics has allowed me to walk without pain and run with out pain. It has reduced my back aches a lot. Dr. Bagherian has been a blessing in my life. If I did not know him I probably would be in a lot more pain when I'm older and get surgery for my feet. Till this day I have listened to everything Dr. Bagherian has advise me to do, and everything suggested has helped my body and my feet get better. Thank you so much I am very grateful for Dr. Bagherian being there for me. read more

Had a stiff neck and pain back so ask Dr.B for help, he's nice professional and reliable ,and the clinics has been remodel it is so nice and clean. I don't feel afraid of chiropractor any more!! Thank u Dr.B!!! read more

See all

I was scared to go into a Functional Capacity Evaluation. Dr. Bagherian is super caring, gentle, and understanding. I was amazed by the state of the art- high tech equipment. He is highly knowledgable. After talking with him the first few minutes, I was no longer worried. Thank you Dr. Bagherian for making this process doable. On a side note, as a Star Wars fan, I walked on board the Millennium Falcon when I entered the office. read more

I have had chronic pain in my hip for the past 10 years. Of all the different treatments i tried (Physical Therapy, Chiropractic, Orthopedic Eval, X-Rays), Dr Bagherian was the first one to provide treatment that has been super effective and has had lasting results. He recommended a course of Laser Therapy for my hip pain in addition to a series of adjustments to help with the rotation in my pelvis. No-one else has ever mentioned scar tissue as a contributing factor to the chronic pain. They've always just adjusted with no lasting results. Less than 10 sessions total and that nagging hip pain is gone! When i went in, i could not put all my weight on that leg without pain -- I couldn't run across the street without hobbling, for instance, and i couldn't drive for more than a half hour without it aching. Hy hips were constantly popping. Today, i am pain free and able to make real progress in physical therapy for the first time because the scar tissue isn't jamming everything up. I can actually train the muscles that need training to build stability. For the first time in over 10 years i am able to get back into my sport of inline distance skating and steady training. Nothing makes me more happy than to be able to do the sport that i love so much! While DR B really knows his stuff and uses hands on tissue manipulation when needed, which is awesome, he also clearly cares about his patients which is huge in healing. Thank you Dr B! read more

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Bagherian. The medical world is tough to navigate and frankly drives me crazy, but Dr. Bagherian is someone that listens and cares. That in itself is more than pretty much more than most people you're going to see. Above that he really helped me get better by focusing on helping me find a diagnosis for my back pain, and then doing a thorough exam that yielded a rib I had out of place that 3 other doctors/chiros didn't even bother trying to find. He also is very honest, which for me personally is #1. He doesn't want you to do more than you need, and is the first to suggest another specialist if he thinks that would be helpful. read more

I chose Dr. Bagherian on Yelp recommendations. I'd hoped he could help me with an issue caused by the stress/strain of full-time school, f/t work and parenthood (a stabbing pain in my neck, numbness down to my fingertips, deteriorating posture, unable to sleep well, rapid weight gain). Dr. Bagherian did an extremely thorough intake. He didn't give me the one-size-fits-all approach. He listened and responded accordingly. The adjustment provided immediate relief! I have another year of grad school so the stress isn't going away anytime soon. However I now feel supported in taking back my health. This is effective [and professional] chiropractic and I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Bagherian. read more

I was in need of a chiropractor after being rear-ended, and was referred to Synapse Health Center by a good friend who was a former patient of Dr. Bagherian's. He is simply amazing! His hours are flexible where I can see him after work and there's plenty of parking in the front & back parking lot. His receptionist/assistant, Belinda, is friendly & very easy going. Dr. Bagherian did a great job in listening, diagnosing, explaining treatment process and helping me understand my injury. I've been going to his office for a few months now, starting from three times a week down to once a week (though I wish I was still visiting three times a week). I really don't have to tell him which area is bothering me, he always tends to find the exact spot and does his adjustment, which works magic. I certainly feel relaxed after my treatments. I definitely recommend Dr. Bagherian to anyone looking for a chiropractor! read more

If you're looking for a chiropractor this place got it. I've been seeing Dr. B for over 10 years and he's the best. He's the miracle worker when it comes to fixing my neck and back pain. Often times I suffer from migraines and with a neck adjustment it relieves my problems. There are days when I slept wrong and an adjustment fixed the problem. He is the go to guy if you got some back and neck pain. read more

I'm glad that I went in for a consultation with Dr. Bagherian. He was super helpful and knowledgeable and honest, and doesn't try to upsell services. He gave me so many tips on how to fix the discomfort in my lower back. He's an expert in his field, and I highly recommend him for all degrees of pain in the back. read more

I go here when I am in REALLY bad shape. And Dr. B. knows how to fix the problem when no one else can. He really is extremely good.

I walked in with some major issues with my hamstring/glute that no one else has been able to help me with. A handful of appointments later I fee like someone hit the "reset" button on my body. Dr. Bagherian is a wonderful doc., not just because I'm able to run again and I'm no longer in constant pain, but because he genuinely cares about your health. He spends quality time with you every time you are there, no lectures, no crazy expensive treatment plan, just honest advice and practical treatment. You do your part at home and he works his miracle in the office. read more

I chose to see Dr. Bagherian after reading his great reviews on Yelp. During my first visit I discovered he's incredibly knowledgeable, professional, friendly and honest. He cares about his patients and successfully addressed the isue I was having with my hip. I would definitely recommend him to others. read more

Dr. B is wonderful! So genuine! He is the best! I started seeing him after a car accident and he has helped so much!!! He takes his time with his patients and really cares about how you are doing. He will take the time to get to know you. His staff is awesome too! I love Melissa, and Suzy. They are so sweet and are really great about working around your schedule. Super humble, and great at what he does. The whole office is filled with great people, who are always willing to help, and they are great when you have questions or concerns. Side note: Dr. B is a total Star Wars nut! He loves the movies, and his office is covered with paintings, and pictures, etc. it's a great ice breaker if you are feeling nervous about your first visit. I know I was nervous, it's hard to let someone adjust your back and neck, because it is your back and neck. Both super importNt parts of your body. But Dr. B put me at ease and walked me through it. read more

I've been dealing with a huge imbalance in my lower back and Dr. Bagherian was able to help loosen me back up and push everything back in place. I felt very welcome when I first stepped in the staff were all very friendly. After my first two sessions I felt a huge difference in my performance in the gym and definitely looking forward to my next secession this upcoming week read more

Dr. Bagherian's office is a bit of a drive for me but well worth every mile. I have been to other physicians in his field but by far he is my favorite!! I found the best doctor to treat me with my neck, hip, and lower back pain. His bed side manner is wonderful and he takes the time to listen to his patients, which is so essential and speaks volume. I also value communication, and he does this very well. With that said; he is very detail oriented when discussing his treatment plan with you. He takes the time to address my concerns and needs, therefore, I never feel rushed. I highly recommend anyone who is experiencing pain to consult with Dr. Bagherian. Added bonuses: He has a well rounded staff that is very friendly and professional. If you're a Star Wars fan you'll enjoy the variety of Star Wars memorabilia in his office. read more

Dr Bagherian has come to my rescue several times dealing with medical issues during the past 10 years. Not only is he an impressive expert in his medical field and practice, he also uses nothing but state of the art medical equipment for his patients. Dr Bagherian is a very caring, genuine doctor who puts 110% into his work and care of his patients... a rare find. Not only have I received the best care from him, Dr Bagherian's medical reports are detailed, meticulous and educational... yes... educational. Most recently, after a bad fall, the relief to my painful knees after Dr Bagherian recently laser treated... is amazing. After only one treatment I continue to receive more relief into now the 3rd day. Before the treatment, walking was getting more difficult by the day and I was getting very concerned about being able to fully function at work since I need to stand throughout the day. I am truly fortunate and blessed to be under Dr Bagherian's care and he has my utmost respect. He has a wonderful staff working for him and his office has a very professional... plus comfortable atmosphere. I never hesitate to recommend him to family, friends and clients. read more

Dr Bagherian was referred to me by a friend who is a chiropractor in Los Angeles. I'm a professional ballerina and pulled an intercostal muscle in between my ribs doing a lift a few weeks ago. Dr B's experience working with pro-dancers and pro-fighters translated super well into finding the optimum treatment for me. Dr B has access to the new Deep Tissue Laser Therapy which sends your body's natural healing process into overdrive...a necessity when you need to use your injured body again and again for work. He used this therapy a few times on me and I experienced immediate lessening of pain. I will definitely go back to see Dr. B again for the Deep Tissue Laser therapy. He didn't even charge me for it the first couple times! He really cares about the patient and gives it to you straight... no B.S. Thanks Doc! :) read more

I was reviewing some of my places of business and found EB's post disturbing. I have known Dr. Bagherian for many years and find him to be an honest chiropractor. I find it interesting that a person who most likely visited Dr. Bagherian's office more than one time would continue to go if he was such a bad doctor. Dr. Bagherian does have a great staff and he hired them all. They are a reflexion of the service he gives. read more

Dr. B gave me top notch service. Within an hour I had sweet relief from the horrible lower back pain I've been suffering due to Law School stress, and long hours sitting in class or doing homework. He is designing a personal stretching routine to prevent further tension and giving me the tools I need to stay fit and limber. He really wants to make sure I get better and am able to stay healthy. read more

I literally thought that I would have to live with lower back pain FOREVER... Then I met Dr. Ali. I am a 41 year old adolescent who surfs, trains Jiu-Jitsu, runs, rides dirt and track motorcycles and chases 2 kids around daily. I have had moderate to severe lower back pain for the last few years and have seen several different types of Dr., Acupuncturists and Chiropractors. I was referred to Synapse by some friends who swear that Dr. Ali is a miracle worker.. He is. Within the first few minutes of our initial consultation I was not only confident in his ability, but put at ease that there was hope to fix my lower back pain. After my first 2 sessions I am feeling great. I have also gained flexibility and confidence that I will avoid injury in the future. His staff is top notch and are always ready to help you with a smile! Thanks Dr. Ali! read more

I decided to make an appointment with Dr Bagherian after reading glowing reviews on Yelp. He lived up to all of them. He was very professional, thorough and enthusiastic but best of all the work he did on my lower back and hip has alleviated my pain! Thank you Dr. B! read more

I have been seeing Dr Bagherian for 3 months now. I came to him barely able to walk upright. I was bent over from a back injury that happened over 10 months ago. I have been to two Neurologists, a Neuro-sergeon and two chiropractors. I decided to go see Dr Bagherian as a last ditch effort and I am so glad I did. From the very first meeting I could tell he cared about me and how he could help. He spend over 45 minutes just examining me. Then his treatment, which included electrical muscle stimulation, traction and adjustment really felt good. The effects of these treatments over the last months have been incredible. I have been able to do so much more then before and I attribute it all to him. I recommend Dr Bagherian to anyone who has any pain or stiffness. He is a very caring professional. read more

Dr. Bagherian is fantastic! From my initial contact with his office my experience has been extremely positive. The office and staff are professional and pleasant and best of all...I can find parking! Dr. Bagherian is very thorough and determined to analyze the core of the problem, establish the best course of treatment and ensure the patient understands the entire process . His initial consultation was very informative and comprehensive. He made sure I understood each step of the healing process letting me know what, how and why. I immediately knew I had found the right doctor. read more
