Bio
Dr. Kevin Wong
I have been a practicing Chiropractor for over 10 years now. I chose the field of Chiropractic medicine over traditional medicine because I wanted to offer people another health alternative to using drugs or having surgery.
Every day of my life I love this job of taking care of patients and their families. I hope this website tells you about me and helps you to see why I would be excited and honored if you to choose me as your Chiropractor.
Education
I grew up in Orinda and went to Glorietta Elementary School, Orinda Intermediate School and then Miramonte High School. After graduating in 1989, I entered the University of California , Davis and graduated with a B.S. in Exercise Physiology in 1993.
I went on to Chiropractic School and graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose in 1996. I have been involved as an instructor in Chiropractic Education since 1997 and currently I travel the United States as a Continuing Education and Seminar Lecturer.
I have additional degrees in California Worker's Compensation as an Independent Medical Evaluator (IME) and a Qualified Medical Evaluator (QME).
Why I Practice
Chiropractic treatment cares for the spinal column, nervous system, joints, and skeletal structure in a way that traditional medicine does not address. Chiropractic treatment provides effective pain relief and healing for trauma or chronic problems, as well as long-term benefits that dramatically enhance your health and well-being. It addresses the "real issues" or causes of the pain, rather than being a ‘band-aid"; or treating just the symptoms.
This deeper level of effectiveness is what drew me to the practice, and the feeling that I can actually help people with ‘causes of problems&8217; and help them gain optimal health makes my practice worthwhile for me, every day!
My partner and wife, Dr. Isabel Eleazar, who also conducts her practice in our office, feels the same way.
Advanced Technology and Techniques
We are the type of Chiropractors who believe in the most advanced, best technology, most efficient equipment, and most effective treatment skills. We have invested time and effort so we can provide you with in the current, leading equipment.
Gentle, Safe Treatment
Our equipment and adjustments are administered in a comfortable and gentle fashion. Our goal is to work efficiently that you feel the effects of the treatment as quickly as possible. It's our job to listen to what you and your body are telling us so that your treatment plan is safe and effective for you.
In the past, people were sometimes afraid of Chiropractic treatment because they had either been mis-informed, received "rough" treatments by other practitioners or had heard stories of possible injury from it. Chiropractic is gentle and safe and it's a natural way of helping you feel better.
A Family-Oriented Office
We take pride in our office, which is located in a house that has been part of Downtown Orinda since 1945. We have had our location since 2004 and it has bee completely renovated with the idea of making it a place that is warm, comfortable, and inviting for our patients.
We are a family-oriented office and you will notice the play area for your children, photos of our two kids and artwork by my father, local artist Kim H. Wong. We feel that our patients are our ‘extended family and we try to create the best possible experience for them.
We work with many types of medical insurance, personal injury (car accidents) and Worker's Compensation cases. We schedule appointments with your busy schedule in mind so that you will not have to sit and wait for very long to be seen. To this effect, we provide a treatment that is extremely time-efficient, giving you the greatest benefit of focused treatment, without cutting corners or skimping on your care.
