Dr. Patrick Cheng has been serving South San Francisco and the greater Peninsula for 27 years — building a reputation as the go-to chiropractor for athletes, accident victims, and anyone dealing with stubborn musculoskeletal pain.
His philosophy is simple: the first visit is the most important visit. Too many patients have been written off by providers who didn't take the time to truly investigate. Dr. Cheng does things differently — he listens, digs deeper, and often uncovers ailments that were going unaddressed.
With a practice that spans sports injury, physical therapy, car accident recovery, and advanced electrical muscle stimulation, Dr. Cheng offers a uniquely comprehensive approach that delivers results other practitioners miss. Best of all, he accepts VA insurance — ensuring veterans can access world-class care.
Hear from patients who found lasting relief with Dr. Patrick Cheng
Had a knee problem and Dr. Cheng was incredibly helpful. 1st time going to a chiropractor and Dr. Cheng made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole experience.
Dr. Cheng is an excellent Physical Therapist. Very knowledgeable on muscles and nerves. Very affordable and takes VA insurance. His adjustments are incredible.
If I can give extra stars I would! Amazing experience! I went in with a sore back, the doctor made a couple adjustments and it feels much better.
I've been coming to see Dr. Cheng for years, even after moving out of the area I always make the drive when my lower back acts up. His electrical muscle stimulation machine is a total game changer.
Best chiropractor I ever had. One adjustment took care of chronic pain I had on my hip and lower back for years. PT did not make any improvements.
I'm a D1 Athlete at San Jose State University and whenever I have any kind of injury Pat treats them better than my trainer at school.
