I was taking medication at least once a day to help with my dizziness. Within three months of starting services with Dr. Mercedes, I was off almost all medication.

I am halfway through my treatment plan and I’m already 80% healed! I went from 18 migraines a month to 3. I’m ecstatic - I’m 70 and have suffered with migraines since I was 18. Dr. Mercedes found that my C1 disc wasn’t aligned. I’ve had multiple neurologists, primary care physicians, acupuncturists and regular chiropractors try to fix this for years, with no results. I’ve also had x-rays that did not show this problem . Dr. Mercedes 3D imaging is unbelievable and well worth it. The treatment is very gentle - I was afraid of anyone touching my neck! Dr. Mercedes is AMAZING. Gloria is great at scheduling & getting you in when you need it, and is a comforting presence. THANKS, Dr. Mercedes! Less

Dr. Mercedes Cook is by and far the best chiropractor and neck doctor I have ever had. I have had a neck injury for 8 years with constant pain and have tried everything from general chiropractic to acupuncture to many rounds of physical therapy. I was in constant pain with bouts of dizziness and nausea. Dr. Mercedes squeezed me in over a year ago to an evaluation after a particularly bad reinjury that left me dizzy for a week, and I have been with her ever since. Through her treatment, I have had days of no pain for the first time in years and was able to finish my travel abroad program and resume dancing without issues. Dr. Mercedes is great at customizing her care, listening to patients' concerns, and genuinely caring for everyone she treats! I cannot recommend her enough. She has entirely changed my life and that of my family members (all three of us have been treated for the better). Also, Gloria is the best for scheduling and always gets me in promptly and is a delight to talk to in the office! Less

A friend of mine recommended her and so I went in to check it out as a way to be more proactive about my self care. From the intake and diagnostics to her clear and precise touch, everything Mercedes has done with me has been eye opening and helpful. I feel like she has always focused on what I as a client need, not what her practice needs from me. Over all I feel like the issues I have had with my neck have largely cleared up and I only head into her office at most once a month. She is great, her technique is solid, and I recommend her highly!

Absolutely wonderful experience at Upper Cervical San Diego with Dr Mercedes Cook. Dr Cook is a highly caring, very meticulous provider who makes you feel very comfortable and cared for. Gloria is also very sweet and kind and will greet you as soon as you arrive to the clinic. Dr Cook has a state of the art CBCT machine on site which allows for an in depth look at the cervical anatomy as it relates to the skull. This helps encourage a more focused and effective treatment plan and adjustment. I had been seen by standard chiropractors with little improvements in the past, so I knew that I needed more specialized care. I arrived to Dr Cook with severe chronic neck discomfort and stiffness. I struggle with atlantoaxial instability and was unable to sleep without pain at the base of the skull . I was also experiencing a sensation of fullness in the throat , and numbness and tingling down my left shoulder . After 2 months I can say that I have experienced nearly 90% improvement in these previous symptoms, and don't think about my neck discomfort anymore. I am very grateful for the care provided By Dr Cook and look forward to continued improvements. I am a provider myself and will not hesitate to refer patients to Upper Cervical San Diego in the future! Highly recommend Less

I was diagnosed with a c5-c6 disc bulge impingement on my spinal cord/nerves that cause pain on the right side of my body. Traditional medicine spinal specialists essentially told me surgery was my only option. And that scared me. I decided I wanted surgery to be my last option. That’s when I became my own advocate for my health. I found Upper Cervical Chiropractic through my own research and due to comments like this one I decided to give their free consultation a try. It has been the best decision I have ever made. Their Atlas, C1, C2 approach to chiropractics just make sense. In 12 appointments I have decreased my daily pain significantly, decreased the number of times I wake up in the middle of the night, and improved rotation of my neck. Before I started with Upper Cervical Chiropractor I really was worried I would end up needing surgery, but now I am hopeful that I can recover from this injury without surgery, and it’s looking like I will. Thanks Upper Cervical Chiropractics! If you’re readying this and questioning it, go! Less

I was lucky enough to meet Dr. Denicio Drake about six months ago and was excited to learn that he specialized in “upper cervical” adjustments and TMJ issues since I tweaked my neck, just below the skull, last summer while practicing my tennis serve for several days. My neck made very loud cracking and popping noises whenever I turned my head, even slightly. It was also tight and sore, but no sharp pain, fortunately. I also had my jaw broken 40 years ago, which has caused dental issues to this day. When I went to Dr. Drake’s office for an adjustment, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that he would only take a 360° x-ray of my head/neck during the first visit. That’s because he only adjusts someone after he knows exactly what their problem is, and then he formulates a treatment plan BEFORE making any adjustments. In the second visit, he showed me the x-rays and explained his suggested course of action and the length of time he felt was necessary to solve my problem. He didn’t just “crack” my neck once and hoped it helped! He also explained the investment and payment options with me before treating me! As a personal trainer, I really like that he has a structured program to ensure he delivers the best results. It is not inexpensive, but when choosing a doctor, I prefer the BEST, not the CHEAPEST (just like when choosing a trainer)! The best part is, I am most of the way through my program and he has almost completely eliminated the cracking, popping, soreness and tightness when I turn my head side-to-side or up-and-down! On a personal level, Dr. Drake is very smart, professional and friendly! The office and staff is very nice and I whole-heartedly recommend everyone to see with him if you are experiencing any neck or TMJ issues! Less

She has been able to help the migraines in ways that no other treatment has helped. It is clear that she is very knowledgable, intelligent, and caring; she has seen a variety of emotions from me throughout a difficult healing time and she is always supportive. She is professional while also makes me feel like a friend. She also has an extensive network of other providers to help create the perfect healing team. The rest of her team and Gloria are also very helpful and kind. Definitely the best place to go for upper cervical care. Less
Dr. Cook is an amazing Chiropractor and the whole experience is just great!!
I can’t say enough about the type of care I received from Dr. Drake.

I can’t say enough about the type of care I received from Dr. Drake. After getting sucked into one of those cult-like chiropractic offices that suck you for thousands and require you to sign up for 2-3 months, 2-3 times a week, this experience was so refreshing! I’d sort of lost faith in chiro care until now. Dr. D’s technology and techniques are far superior and more time & cost effective. He wasn’t pushy about making me come 2 x’s a week, and when I asked if it would be ok to come once a week told me that was fine… it would just take longer. This was fine for me because financially I couldn’t swing more than once a week. Just 7 visits in, I am happy to say my adjustments are holding and can begin seeing him now on an as needed basis which is a far cry from the last chiro office that kept insisting I needed to continue 2x’s a week after 3 months of adjustments and nearly 3k later. Thanks Dr.D! It’s refreshing to have care with an honest practitioner who uses the kind of technology and technique that brings results in such an efficient and effective manner. Less
Dr. Cook and Gloria are very caring and helpful. Dr. Cook explained the procedures and skillfully performed them. I highly recommend them!

I've been a patient of Dr. Mercedes' since February, 2022 and my experience has always been extremely positive. I was experiencing digestive issues and chronic neck, shoulder & back pain. I wanted to address the root cause of these health issues. My holistic health practitioner recommended that I see an upper cervical chiropractor instead a traditional chiropractor since the upper cervical method focuses on the relationship between the neck and the rest of the body. I'm thankful that Upper Cervical Chiropractic of San Diego is part of my personal healthcare team for many reasons. Their team provides an exceptional patient experience that is welcoming, accommodating and friendly. I always look forward to my appointment with Dr. Mercedes. She always greets me with a warm caring smile and engages in personable conversation with me. Dr Mercedes makes me feel like her most valued patient. I had a difficult time holding my adjustments consistently, but dr stayed the course with me as we explored the various reasons my atlas was not holding. One visit we discussed my misaligned teeth as the possible culprit which my health practitioner shared as well. I made an appointment to see a speciality dentist. Immediately after the specialist performed restorative work and adjusted my bite, the pain in my neck and shoulders vanished. I was so excited and couldn't wait to tell Dr. Mercedes. At my next visit to UCCSD, I told Dr. Mercedes the good news. We celebrate my victory after she scanned my neck and discovered that my atlas was still holding. Now I'm holding my adjustments and growing stronger each visit. If you are searching for a chiropractic team who gets actively involved as you advance towards optimal health and wellness, look no further. Upper Cervical Chiropractic of San Diego is the best fit for you. Less

Dr. Mercedes is a wonderful chiropractor who cares deeply about her patients being happy, healthy, and aligned. She has an uplifting and positive demeanor with a smile that lights up the room. I definitely look forward to my visits and always leave feeling better than when I came into the office. The imaging equipment used is great, because it's not utilizing X-Ray technology and it provides the necessary information for making precise adjustments to the cervical spine. Furthermore, there is no cracking or manual manipulation performed. Instead, the adjustment is very easy and comfortable which allows my body to relax and not guard during the treatment. The Zero Gravity chairs post-treatment are heavenly. I love the space provided to relax my neck in the most comfortable chair and always take advantage of this time. The front office is run by Gloria who always greets you with a smile. Gloria is extremely friendly and excellent at helping you schedule and reschedule appointments. Additionally, she is super responsive with impeccable follow through. Gloria and Dr. Mercedes make an excellent team, and I feel extremely grateful to have found Dr. Mercedes for my Upper Cervical care. Less

My experience with upper cervical chiropractic was phenomenal! I came in because I suffered from terrible headaches. Dr. Cook walked us through what to expect from the process, taking her time and answering our questions. During my visit, she performed imaging using her advanced equipment-which gave me a 3D view of how my neck looked. She used this information to show how out of alignment my upper cervical area was, which was impressive and very reassuring. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous before going in for my appointment. However, after seeing tangible proof that my neck was out of alignment, I knew Dr. Cook could help me. After speaking about the details of my case, she walked my husband and me through what to expect from the use of the Blair technique. As I said, I was nervous, as this upper cervical area is critical. However, when Dr. Cook performed the Blair technique, I felt an immediate difference in my neck and posture. What was so great about this experience was that it was 100% non-invasive! Now, I notice my headaches are not as present as they once were. Dr. Cook's expertise and care have changed my health for good! I lived most of my life powering through headaches, so now, to have days go by when I don't have headaches is a new and refreshing feeling! I'm genuinely grateful for what Dr. Cook dedicates herself to and the care and patience she exhibits with her patients. Less

I'm very grateful to have found Upper Cervical Chiropractic. I went mainly because of my Positional Vertigo causing dizziness, lightheadedness, room spinning when laying down on my right side. I also had a habit of tilting my head to my right side only. All has brought discomfort when moving at a fast pace or at random and has overall interfered with my daily life. I've had an MRI done on my brain, all was normal. Tried an ENT (Ears, Nose, Throat) Doctor, and I personally felt worse. I went to see a Cardiologist and was only told I had low blood pressure, but still wasn't sold on why I was feeling this way. After what was an estimate of 15 years of feeling this way, I'm very happy to say that I have seen such an improvement in my journey with Dr. Mercedes and her practice. I'm able to sleep with zero inconvenience on my right side and my head tilt has no longer occurred. All I can say is trust the process, do your part and be kind to yourself in your healing journey. Very grateful for Dr. Mercedes and her office manager Gloria! Both very kind and welcoming since day one. Thank you both for all you do! Less

Upper Cervical care has improved my quality of life dramatically. I started two years ago and haven't had a migraine in over a year. The non-invasive adjustments were necessary for my tender, injured neck. This is not your traditional chiropractor in many dimensions, one of them being the 3D imaging they took of my neck prior to starting care. It was so great to understand precisely where my issues stemmed from and heal with a dedicated and caring office. Less

I went to Upper Cervical Chiropractic at a desperate time in my life. Although I was in my late 60s I was amazingly healthy, medication free and always active. Then I was diagnosed with vertigo and spent over a month absolutely debilitated. Basically bedridden except for medical office visits to an array of different specialists, a neurologist, audiologist, orthopedist, etc. None were helpful. I remember my first time at Upper Cervical sitting in the waiting room, I could barely hold my head up, I was miserable. After their exam and diagnosis plus a well structured regimen of gentle yet effective treatments I am finally me again. I have recommended them to friends and family repeatedly and cannot praise them enough. I truly believed they saved my life! Less

They are unlike other chiropractors that I have visited where I often leave feeling worse than when I came in.

While I am not against the traditional chiropractic adjustment, I do think the gentler upper cervical adjustment is better. And don’t think it is only for your neck!

I found Upper Cervical had a consultation and x-rays and was blown away by how bad my neck was. I had taken a bad fall on an ATV many years ago and believe that this was what threw my C1 C2 out of alignment. I started seeing Dr. Hanley about 2 months ago and the changes are amazing! Not only is her bed side manor sharp, witty, friendly and on point but she is very knowledgeable and absolutely enjoys her job helping heal people. Btw I have had one major migraines since Dr. Hanley has been helping me. I cannot say enough of about her and her staff and the benefits she has had on my health. Thank you!!! UPDATE: Since Dr. Mercedes Cook has taken over the business she has kept up on the excellent care. She kind compassionate, friendly, knowledgable and caring during these stressful times of COVID. Due to the extreme stress in my life right now I have had to see her more than I was previously she has alway fit me in and re aligned me so I can function with a normal life.

For at least the last 12 years, I've had issues with my neck and back. Sometimes the symptoms would get pretty scary. I've had numbness in my hands and feet; I've had constant fatigue in my arms; I've had my feet fall asleep while running; I've even woken up in the middle of the night with absolutely no feeling in my arms or legs. I've been to numerous doctors, and they've always told me the same thing: It's a nerve issue-there's nothing seriously wrong with you. I lived with those symptoms for years. It just became a part of my life. Then I visited with Dr. Cecilia. I told her my story. She was not satisfied with my "just live with it" approach. She wanted me to see her immediately. On my first visit, Dr. Cecilia set me up for XRays. At her office, she has this AWESOME 3-D X-ray machine. I can't even explain it, you just have to go see it. When Dr. Cecilia saw the results, she was a little horrified. She saw the consequences of multiple sports/snowboarding related injuries, and told me my body had been slowly contorting to accommodate for a twisted spine. She showed me exactly where my nerves were being pinched and could correspond those nerves to the symptoms I was experiencing. She taught me more about my neck and back in 15 minutes than dozens of doctors had in my entire life. Dr. Cecilia set me up with a plan. The initial visit obviously involved an adjustment. After ONE ADJUSTMENT, I started feeling better. ONE. All that pressure on my brain stem; released. I've been seeing her for about 3 weeks, and my adjustment has held. I haven't felt this good since I was in high school. No numbness, no tingling, no waking up in the middle of the night terrified I can't feel my arm, no fatigue in my arms and legs, no problems running. I'm sleeping 8-9 hours a night uninterrupted, my digestion is better, I have more energy, I just feel better. After 12 years of thinking I was going to live with these symptoms for the rest of my life, she's fixing me. And if I can continue to get better the way I have the last few months, I will forever be in her debt. Less

I have an incurable & untreatable muscle disease called sporadic inclusion-body myositis (s-IBM). Muscle deterioration is slower than the other forms of this disease. I came to UCCSD & Dr. Hanley a couple of years ago because my dominant right arm was numb, tingling, & my right hand was losing strength. My left was very weak & I'm right hand dominant. I need my hands to do things. Unrelated to s-IBM, I also suffered terrible digestive issues. After a regimen of adjustments not only was my right arm & hand were back to normal, but my left showed a slight improvement & the digestive issues were gone. I've spent DEC 2017 - JUL 2018 caregiving a family member & neglected my own health during this time. Needless to say I was losing ground. I returned to UCCSD in pretty bad shape. Once again after a couple adjustments things are improving. Pain, tingling, numbness in both arms/hands has improved. The pain in my right leg which caused sleeping issues is gone & I'm getting a good night's sleep again. Lastly, my digestive issues have improved significantly. In my quest to help myself slow down the effects of s-IBM & age, I've learned to be open minded, think outside the box, & try things till you find what works for you. UCCSD works for me. I'm forever grateful to the UCCSD Team Dr. Jessica Lee has put together. Less

My husband have been suffering with Lower back pain and soreness for the past couple years now. We bought a very expensive bed thinking this will address the issue, and yup! Nothing. Decided to call make an appointment with Dr. Jessica at Upper Cervical Chiropractic Wow! We are so happy we did. Dr. Jessica did a 3D Scan X-Ray on my husband. A week later we came back for the results. She was very knowledgeable on the procedure and techniques my husband needs to get his back, neck and health back. There’s no price to get your health back and prevent future injuries. We are so glad we did not listen to our friends telling us to have him go see a traditional Chiropractor.

We were referred here from Sandra who works here and we could not be more happy to have come here. Sandra and Alejandra are super nice and so helpful. I have had back issues for maybe 10 years now and came in today to see AMAZING Dr. Jessica. My lower back was having pains while sleeping, while bending over picking up things and at the most random times. We came in 2 weeks ago and Dr. Jessica did her 3D xrays and scheduled me to come in 2 weeks after to examine my results. As a business owner, I work with a lot of businesses and I was extremely impressed with how thorough they were here and explaining my situation in great detail and how upfront she was on everything. I left here today, so happy with my results and am SO grateful to have found Dr. Jessica and her team. I plan on being a term customer and doing whatever she recommends to ensure I don't do something I shouldn't. Before going to a chiropractor and getting the "SNAP CRACKLE POP" for some kind of quick fix, come here and get the 3D xrays. You will be happy you did! I am a very active adult, workout 5-6 times a week and live a healthy lifestyle and Dr. Jessica is a GEM and I am so thankful to have found you guys. Thanks!!!!! Derek & Aide. Less

After viewing X-ray results Dr Jessica explained everything in detail to me and told me that she could help me :) With no medication :) ..after several adjustments I was feeling better... I regained my regular mobility and started driving within a month ( yeiiiii !! ) With the support from my family,friends,coworkers and the care from Dr Jessica I am still on the road to full recovery..

Dr. Hanley is an exceptional professional who always practices a 'patients first' practice. I had a friend visiting from the East Coast earlier this year with chronic neck issues aggravated by her travel. Dr. Hanley was very kind to accommodate her on very short notice to offer her relief. Dr. Hanley is the only Dr. my friend has seen in the last few years who she felt truly LISTENED, didn't try to pump her full of drugs to just mask the pain and not treat or cure the source, and who didnt tell her that what she was experiening "was all in her head". This same friend is in the process of relocating to the west coast. She counts herself exceptionally fortunate, not to mention extraordinarily relieved, to know she will have Dr. Hanley as a part of her healthcare team here in California. Thank you Dr. Hanley!! Less

I was experiencing a painful week right arm stemming from an impingement of C4 or C5 in my neck. I could barely lift the arm it was numb and extremely week. Kaisers approach was to operate which I was opposed to. So a friend of mine who is a Chiropractor recommended I look for an upper cervical spine chiropractor using the Blair Technique. So on the internet is how I found Dr. Lee. Skeptical at firs YES. I had the X Rays done and went to one of her new patient classes then started treatment I was desperate for results. Dr. Lee is very well spoken and explained her process to the finest detail which is great because this process is not like any Chiropractic I had had before, no Cracking or Popping just mellow light adjustments after a thorough evaluation on each visit. So No Popping or Cracking, I thought how can this work (look up the Blair Technique and the science behind it). There has even been plenty of visits where I did not need an adjustment because the previous one was holding, which is the end goal of chiropractic. After about a month on my individual plan which included visits and home excessive I started to have better control and strength in my Right arm. Each month even more. Now at about six months out (I think) I am completely back to Rock climbing, Surfing, Playing basketball and all the other things I do no more neck pain or arm weakness. I am still in the stage of my plan where I see Dr. Lee about once a week and am regularly holding adjustments for 2-3 weeks at a time sometimes more. I am consistently trying things that I wasn't able to do 6 moths earlier that I had done before my neck started causing pain. I have never been excited to see that I have a Dr. Appointment coming up until now, when I know that I beet my body up over the weekend, Dr. Lee puts me straight again. I highly Recommend researching Upper Cervical Spine Care and the technique that Dr. Lee practices, Go visit her and get back on the path to enjoying a health life. I was totally skeptical and I let Dr. Lee know that but now I am a firm believer in upper cervical spine care. If your starting to have pain or had it for a long time and traditional Chiropractic either scares you or docent work, it's Time to check out Upper Cervical Chiropractic and of course Dr. Lee. I waited this long to post (which I never review anything) to make sure I could make an honest recommendation. Thanks for reading and good luck and good research Thank you Dr. Lee for putting me back together (today). Mike S 3/13/17 Less

As a professional she took a thorough assessment using advanced x-ray equipment and explained why a young athletic 22 year was feeling like an old man. My back was so bad at times stairs were impossible. With her expertise she quickly targeting my issue and started my treatment. Its been a few months of treatment but I quickly was able to feel the treatment in weeks. Dr. Hanley provides a very zen and relaxing environment in order to ensure you maximize your healing. Most importantly Dr.Hanley was very flexible in my payment plan and as a college student making it less stressful for my healing process. If you are experiencing any pain that your traditional doctor may not try or be able to identify I highly recommend you see Dr. Hanley at Upper Cervical Chiropractic. P.S the zero gravity chairs are HEAVEN!! Less

My daughter starting seeing Dr. Lee about three months ago, and since then she has seen a major improvement in her health. She crashed on an ATV a few months prior and began to experience a range of symptoms such as headaches, back and neck pain, heart palpitations, dizziness, and numbness. We finally figured out that it might be something to do with the crash affecting her neck, and Dr. Lee agreed once she did exams and took x-rays. She began treating my daughter two or three times a week. The visits are short (about 15 minutes) which is convenient. Dr. Lee is usually quick and thoughtful, but a few times my daughter felt like her visits were rushed and not as thorough as they could have been. But overall it has been a good experience and my daughter is grateful to have her health back. Less

Oh, and not to forget, Sandra, the front office assistant is another bright light and always so helpful in scheduling appointments and helping to find a time slot on the spur of the moment if I am having a problem.

My name is Manny. I have been suffering from years of low back pain due to my occupation. I also suffered a whiplash injury from a car accident a few years ago where my vehicle was T-boned. After the accident, I developed neck pain and my ribs on the left side would hurt. Medical doctors could not find what was wrong and their X-rays came back negative. I sought a chiropractor for my pain and had been going to him for 2 years, but I never got any lasting results, not even with massage therapy. My discomfort was causing me a lot of stress and frustration. It would interfere with my work as I have to drive long distances on a weekly basis and lift heavy objects. My knees would start hurting after long periods of standing and in the last two years I started to notice that I was developing a weak grip in my right hand. When I met Dr. Jessica, she asked about my digestion and I told her that I have had acid reflux for my whole life and I would have to take medication to relieve my symptoms. Often, I would be up in the middle of the night feeling the reflux, which prevented me from getting any rest. I did not realize at the time that chiropractic had anything to do with my digestion. After a few gentle adjustments, I have noticed significant changes in how my body functions. My low back no longer bothers me, even when I drive long distance. My body feels better and more balanced, and the most surprising thing is that my acid reflux has cleared up! I no longer have to take medication to manage the reflux and I can sleep through the night. Even my family members have noticed that I no longer have to take pills. I have more energy during the day, my thoughts are much clearer (no more brain fog), and my body feels much more balanced. I feel great! Less

If you are looking for a chiropractor in SD, look no further because Dr. Lee is simply superb! She cares about her patients and provides comprehensive information in order to ensure that her patients receive the best care possible. About eight months ago, I started experiencing shoulder pain and found out it was associated with a past head injury from many years ago. After seeing a traditional chiropractor for 6 months, I noticed my shoulder pain progressively got worse despite seeking consistent care three times a week. I continued to look for solutions through the means of acupuncture and even sought medical advice from two different doctors who both told me just to take ibuprofen (for the rest of my life). I wanted to find the root cause to my problems and didn't think the medication route was practical for someone in their early 20s. I stumbled upon Upper Cervical Chiropractic SD on yelp and decided to schedule an appointment for a consultation. I was hesitant about seeing another chiropractor, but Dr. Lee ensured me that she would only treat me if she truly believed she could help me. We had a thorough talk about my symptoms and took multiple x-rays... And fast forward to almost one month of receiving non-invasive adjustments, I feel drastically better in both my physical and mental health. After experiencing body pain and tension for more than half a year, I believe I have found the best care that will help me feel (100%) like myself again! I highly recommend Upper Cervical Chiropractic SD for anyone who wants to feels better in all aspects of their health! Less

I used to suffer from daily headaches and neck pain that accumulated over time from a prior car accident, snowboarding, and also countless hours hunched over studying during college. I often found it difficult to focus at work and do my tasks. I had chiropractic care before, but had never had upper cervical chiropractic. I was amazed at how simple and gentle the technique is, plus how effective it is. I'm happy to say that the headaches and neck pain I used to experience have reduced significantly. Instead of daily, I get them about 1 time every 1-2 months. Dr. Lee is very friendly and upbeat with her patients. She is also very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about what she does. I'm so grateful to have found Dr. Lee and I still continue to see her monthly as part of my self-care routine. Less

Dr. Mercedes Cook is by and far the best chiropractor and neck doctor I have ever had. I have had a neck injury for 8 years with constant pain and have tried everything from general chiropractic to acupuncture to many rounds of physical therapy. I was in constant pain with bouts of dizziness and nausea. Dr. Mercedes squeezed me in over a year ago to an evaluation after a particularly bad reinjury that left me dizzy for a week, and I have been with her ever since. Through her treatment, I have had days of no pain for the first time in years and was able to finish my travel abroad program and resume dancing without issues. Dr. Mercedes is great at customizing her care, listening to patients' concerns, and genuinely caring for everyone she treats! I cannot recommend her enough. She has entirely changed my life and that of my family members (all three of us have been treated for the better). Also, Gloria is the best for scheduling and always gets me in promptly and is a delight to talk to in the office! Less

A friend of mine recommended her and so I went in to check it out as a way to be more proactive about my self care. From the intake and diagnostics to her clear and precise touch, everything Mercedes has done with me has been eye opening and helpful.

Absolutely wonderful experience at Upper Cervical San Diego with Dr Mercedes Cook. Dr Cook is a highly caring, very meticulous provider who makes you feel very comfortable and cared for. Gloria is also very sweet and kind and will greet you as soon as you arrive to the clinic. Dr Cook has a state of the art CBCT machine on site which allows for an in depth look at the cervical anatomy as it relates to the skull. This helps encourage a more focused and effective treatment plan and adjustment. I had been seen by standard chiropractors with little improvements in the past, so I knew that I needed more specialized care. I arrived to Dr Cook with severe chronic neck discomfort and stiffness. I struggle with atlantoaxial instability and was unable to sleep without pain at the base of the skull . I was also experiencing a sensation of fullness in the throat , and numbness and tingling down my left shoulder . After 2 months I can say that I have experienced nearly 90% improvement in these previous symptoms, and don't think about my neck discomfort anymore. I am very grateful for the care provided By Dr Cook and look forward to continued improvements. I am a provider myself and will not hesitate to refer patients to Upper Cervical San Diego in the future! Highly recommend Less

I was diagnosed with a c5-c6 disc bulge impingement on my spinal cord/nerves that cause pain on the right side of my body. Traditional medicine spinal specialists essentially told me surgery was my only option. And that scared me. I decided I wanted surgery to be my last option. That’s when I became my own advocate for my health. I found Upper Cervical Chiropractic through my own research and due to comments like this one I decided to give their free consultation a try. It has been the best decision I have ever made. Their Atlas, C1, C2 approach to chiropractics just make sense. In 12 appointments I have decreased my daily pain significantly, decreased the number of times I wake up in the middle of the night, and improved rotation of my neck. Before I started with Upper Cervical Chiropractor I really was worried I would end up needing surgery, but now I am hopeful that I can recover from this injury without surgery, and it’s looking like I will. Thanks Upper Cervical Chiropractics! If you’re readying this and questioning it, go! Less

I was lucky enough to meet Dr. Denicio Drake about six months ago and was excited to learn that he specialized in “upper cervical” adjustments and TMJ issues since I tweaked my neck, just below the skull, last summer while practicing my tennis serve for several days. My neck made very loud cracking and popping noises whenever I turned my head, even slightly. It was also tight and sore, but no sharp pain, fortunately. I also had my jaw broken 40 years ago, which has caused dental issues to this day. When I went to Dr. Drake’s office for an adjustment, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that he would only take a 360° x-ray of my head/neck during the first visit. That’s because he only adjusts someone after he knows exactly what their problem is, and then he formulates a treatment plan BEFORE making any adjustments. In the second visit, he showed me the x-rays and explained his suggested course of action and the length of time he felt was necessary to solve my problem. He didn’t just “crack” my neck once and hoped it helped! He also explained the investment and payment options with me before treating me! As a personal trainer, I really like that he has a structured program to ensure he delivers the best results. It is not inexpensive, but when choosing a doctor, I prefer the BEST, not the CHEAPEST (just like when choosing a trainer)! The best part is, I am most of the way through my program and he has almost completely eliminated the cracking, popping, soreness and tightness when I turn my head side-to-side or up-and-down! On a personal level, Dr. Drake is very smart, professional and friendly! The office and staff is very nice and I whole-heartedly recommend everyone to see with him if you are experiencing any neck or TMJ issues! Less

I can’t say enough about the type of care I received from Dr. Drake. After getting sucked into one of those cult-like chiropractic offices that suck you for thousands and require you to sign up for 2-3 months, 2-3 times a week, this experience was so refreshing! I’d sort of lost faith in chiro care until now. Dr. D’s technology and techniques are far superior and more time & cost effective. He wasn’t pushy about making me come 2 x’s a week, and when I asked if it would be ok to come once a week told me that was fine… it would just take longer. This was fine for me because financially I couldn’t swing more than once a week. Just 7 visits in, I am happy to say my adjustments are holding and can begin seeing him now on an as needed basis which is a far cry from the last chiro office that kept insisting I needed to continue 2x’s a week after 3 months of adjustments and nearly 3k later. Thanks Dr.D! It’s refreshing to have care with an honest practitioner who uses the kind of technology and technique that brings results in such an efficient and effective manner. Less

Gloria at the front desk always greets everyone with a smile & remembers everyone’s name! Definitely a welcoming environment! Dr. Mercedes is one of the most kind people I’ve ever met! She is just lovely and definitely knows what she’s doing. Did I mention, there is a room with reclining chairs, dimmed lights and relaxing spa music that will give you those 15 minutes during the day you’re just eager to have for yourself to relax? Highly recommend Upper Cervical Chiropractic! Less

I've been a patient of Dr. Mercedes' since February, 2022 and my experience has always been extremely positive. I was experiencing digestive issues and chronic neck, shoulder & back pain. I wanted to address the root cause of these health issues. My holistic health practitioner recommended that I see an upper cervical chiropractor instead a traditional chiropractor since the upper cervical method focuses on the relationship between the neck and the rest of the body. I'm thankful that Upper Cervical Chiropractic of San Diego is part of my personal healthcare team for many reasons. Their team provides an exceptional patient experience that is welcoming, accommodating and friendly. I always look forward to my appointment with Dr. Mercedes. She always greets me with a warm caring smile and engages in personable conversation with me. Dr Mercedes makes me feel like her most valued patient. I had a difficult time holding my adjustments consistently, but dr stayed the course with me as we explored the various reasons my atlas was not holding. One visit we discussed my misaligned teeth as the possible culprit which my health practitioner shared as well. I made an appointment to see a speciality dentist. Immediately after the specialist performed restorative work and adjusted my bite, the pain in my neck and shoulders vanished. I was so excited and couldn't wait to tell Dr. Mercedes. At my next visit to UCCSD, I told Dr. Mercedes the good news. We celebrate my victory after she scanned my neck and discovered that my atlas was still holding. Now I'm holding my adjustments and growing stronger each visit. If you are searching for a chiropractic team who gets actively involved as you advance towards optimal health and wellness, look no further. Upper Cervical Chiropractic of San Diego is the best fit for you. Less

Dr. Mercedes is a wonderful chiropractor who cares deeply about her patients being happy, healthy, and aligned. She has an uplifting and positive demeanor with a smile that lights up the room. I definitely look forward to my visits and always leave feeling better than when I came into the office. The imaging equipment used is great, because it's not utilizing X-Ray technology and it provides the necessary information for making precise adjustments to the cervical spine. Furthermore, there is no cracking or manual manipulation performed. Instead, the adjustment is very easy and comfortable which allows my body to relax and not guard during the treatment. The Zero Gravity chairs post-treatment are heavenly. I love the space provided to relax my neck in the most comfortable chair and always take advantage of this time. The front office is run by Gloria who always greets you with a smile. Gloria is extremely friendly and excellent at helping you schedule and reschedule appointments. Additionally, she is super responsive with impeccable follow through. Gloria and Dr. Mercedes make an excellent team, and I feel extremely grateful to have found Dr. Mercedes for my Upper Cervical care. Less

My experience with upper cervical chiropractic was phenomenal! I came in because I suffered from terrible headaches. Dr. Cook walked us through what to expect from the process, taking her time and answering our questions. During my visit, she performed imaging using her advanced equipment-which gave me a 3D view of how my neck looked. She used this information to show how out of alignment my upper cervical area was, which was impressive and very reassuring. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous before going in for my appointment. However, after seeing tangible proof that my neck was out of alignment, I knew Dr. Cook could help me. After speaking about the details of my case, she walked my husband and me through what to expect from the use of the Blair technique. As I said, I was nervous, as this upper cervical area is critical. However, when Dr. Cook performed the Blair technique, I felt an immediate difference in my neck and posture. What was so great about this experience was that it was 100% non-invasive! Now, I notice my headaches are not as present as they once were. Dr. Cook's expertise and care have changed my health for good! I lived most of my life powering through headaches, so now, to have days go by when I don't have headaches is a new and refreshing feeling! I'm genuinely grateful for what Dr. Cook dedicates herself to and the care and patience she exhibits with her patients. Less

I'm very grateful to have found Upper Cervical Chiropractic. I went mainly because of my Positional Vertigo causing dizziness, lightheadedness, room spinning when laying down on my right side. I also had a habit of tilting my head to my right side only. All has brought discomfort when moving at a fast pace or at random and has overall interfered with my daily life. I've had an MRI done on my brain, all was normal. Tried an ENT (Ears, Nose, Throat) Doctor, and I personally felt worse. I went to see a Cardiologist and was only told I had low blood pressure, but still wasn't sold on why I was feeling this way. After what was an estimate of 15 years of feeling this way, I'm very happy to say that I have seen such an improvement in my journey with Dr. Mercedes and her practice. I'm able to sleep with zero inconvenience on my right side and my head tilt has no longer occurred. All I can say is trust the process, do your part and be kind to yourself in your healing journey. Very grateful for Dr. Mercedes and her office manager Gloria! Both very kind and welcoming since day one. Thank you both for all you do! Less

She lived with a headache that never let up and sometimes flared up even worse. We were referred to Dr. Mercedes by our son in law who is a chiropractor.

Thankfully, after consistent treatment and much prayer, she has not had a migraine or headaches for the past 6 months!

Dr Mercedes is a fantastic chiropractic doctor! I have been to chiropractors for 30 years and Dr Mercedes is the best. While I am not against the traditional chiropractic adjustment, I do think the gentler upper cervical adjustment is better. And don’t think it is only for your neck! Her adjustment helps your neck and back. Sometimes the way my shoulders loosen up immediately after an adjustment blows me away! Same for my lower back which is usually pretty tight. My head is not sitting forward like it used to be because of Dr Mercedes! I highly recommend her! Less

I found Upper Cervical had a consultation and x-rays and was blown away by how bad my neck was. I had taken a bad fall on an ATV many years ago and believe that this was what threw my C1 C2 out of alignment. I started seeing Dr. Hanley about 2 months ago and the changes are amazing! Not only is her bed side manor sharp, witty, friendly and on point but she is very knowledgeable and absolutely enjoys her job helping heal people. Btw I have had one major migraines since Dr. Hanley has been helping me. I cannot say enough of about her and her staff and the benefits she has had on my health. Thank you!!! UPDATE: Since Dr. Mercedes Cook has taken over the business she has kept up on the excellent care. She kind compassionate, friendly, knowledgable and caring during these stressful times of COVID. Due to the extreme stress in my life right now I have had to see her more than I was previously she has alway fit me in and re aligned me so I can function with a normal life.

Update: they did give me a full refund. The front desk lady, Gloria, was generous and helpful.

For at least the last 12 years, I've had issues with my neck and back. Sometimes the symptoms would get pretty scary. I've had numbness in my hands and feet; I've had constant fatigue in my arms; I've had my feet fall asleep while running; I've even woken up in the middle of the night with absolutely no feeling in my arms or legs. I've been to numerous doctors, and they've always told me the same thing: It's a nerve issue-there's nothing seriously wrong with you. I lived with those symptoms for years. It just became a part of my life. Then I visited with Dr. Cecilia. I told her my story. She was not satisfied with my "just live with it" approach. She wanted me to see her immediately. On my first visit, Dr. Cecilia set me up for XRays. At her office, she has this AWESOME 3-D X-ray machine. I can't even explain it, you just have to go see it. When Dr. Cecilia saw the results, she was a little horrified. She saw the consequences of multiple sports/snowboarding related injuries, and told me my body had been slowly contorting to accommodate for a twisted spine. She showed me exactly where my nerves were being pinched and could correspond those nerves to the symptoms I was experiencing. She taught me more about my neck and back in 15 minutes than dozens of doctors had in my entire life. Dr. Cecilia set me up with a plan. The initial visit obviously involved an adjustment. After ONE ADJUSTMENT, I started feeling better. ONE. All that pressure on my brain stem; released. I've been seeing her for about 3 weeks, and my adjustment has held. I haven't felt this good since I was in high school. No numbness, no tingling, no waking up in the middle of the night terrified I can't feel my arm, no fatigue in my arms and legs, no problems running. I'm sleeping 8-9 hours a night uninterrupted, my digestion is better, I have more energy, I just feel better. After 12 years of thinking I was going to live with these symptoms for the rest of my life, she's fixing me. And if I can continue to get better the way I have the last few months, I will forever be in her debt. Less
Dr. Mercedes is outstanding. The office is fantastic, everyone is nice there, and most importantly they do fantastic work!

I have an incurable & untreatable muscle disease called sporadic inclusion-body myositis (s-IBM). Muscle deterioration is slower than the other forms of this disease. I came to UCCSD & Dr. Hanley a couple of years ago because my dominant right arm was numb, tingling, & my right hand was losing strength. My left was very weak & I'm right hand dominant. I need my hands to do things. Unrelated to s-IBM, I also suffered terrible digestive issues. After a regimen of adjustments not only was my right arm & hand were back to normal, but my left showed a slight improvement & the digestive issues were gone. I've spent DEC 2017 - JUL 2018 caregiving a family member & neglected my own health during this time. Needless to say I was losing ground. I returned to UCCSD in pretty bad shape. Once again after a couple adjustments things are improving. Pain, tingling, numbness in both arms/hands has improved. The pain in my right leg which caused sleeping issues is gone & I'm getting a good night's sleep again. Lastly, my digestive issues have improved significantly. In my quest to help myself slow down the effects of s-IBM & age, I've learned to be open minded, think outside the box, & try things till you find what works for you. UCCSD works for me. I'm forever grateful to the UCCSD Team Dr. Jessica Lee has put together. Less

My husband have been suffering with Lower back pain and soreness for the past couple years now. We bought a very expensive bed thinking this will address the issue, and yup! Nothing. Decided to call make an appointment with Dr. Jessica at Upper Cervical Chiropractic Wow! We are so happy we did. Dr. Jessica did a 3D Scan X-Ray on my husband. A week later we came back for the results. She was very knowledgeable on the procedure and techniques my husband needs to get his back, neck and health back. There’s no price to get your health back and prevent future injuries. We are so glad we did not listen to our friends telling us to have him go see a traditional Chiropractor.

We were referred here from Sandra who works here and we could not be more happy to have come here. Sandra and Alejandra are super nice and so helpful. I have had back issues for maybe 10 years now and came in today to see AMAZING Dr. Jessica. My lower back was having pains while sleeping, while bending over picking up things and at the most random times. We came in 2 weeks ago and Dr. Jessica did her 3D xrays and scheduled me to come in 2 weeks after to examine my results. As a business owner, I work with a lot of businesses and I was extremely impressed with how thorough they were here and explaining my situation in great detail and how upfront she was on everything. I left here today, so happy with my results and am SO grateful to have found Dr. Jessica and her team. I plan on being a term customer and doing whatever she recommends to ensure I don't do something I shouldn't. Before going to a chiropractor and getting the "SNAP CRACKLE POP" for some kind of quick fix, come here and get the 3D xrays. You will be happy you did!

This same friend is in the process of relocating to the west coast.

I was experiencing a painful week right arm stemming from an impingement of C4 or C5 in my neck. I could barely lift the arm it was numb and extremely week. Kaisers approach was to operate which I was opposed to. So a friend of mine who is a Chiropractor recommended I look for an upper cervical spine chiropractor using the Blair Technique. So on the internet is how I found Dr. Lee. Skeptical at firs YES. I had the X Rays done and went to one of her new patient classes then started treatment I was desperate for results. Dr. Lee is very well spoken and explained her process to the finest detail which is great because this process is not like any Chiropractic I had had before, no Cracking or Popping just mellow light adjustments after a thorough evaluation on each visit. So No Popping or Cracking, I thought how can this work (look up the Blair Technique and the science behind it). There has even been plenty of visits where I did not need an adjustment because the previous one was holding, which is the end goal of chiropractic. After about a month on my individual plan which included visits and home excessive I started to have better control and strength in my Right arm. Each month even more. Now at about six months out (I think) I am completely back to Rock climbing, Surfing, Playing basketball and all the other things I do no more neck pain or arm weakness. I am still in the stage of my plan where I see Dr. Lee about once a week and am regularly holding adjustments for 2-3 weeks at a time sometimes more. I am consistently trying things that I wasn't able to do 6 moths earlier that I had done before my neck started causing pain. I have never been excited to see that I have a Dr. Appointment coming up until now, when I know that I beet my body up over the weekend, Dr. Lee puts me straight again. I highly Recommend researching Upper Cervical Spine Care and the technique that Dr. Lee practices, Go visit her and get back on the path to enjoying a health life. I was totally skeptical and I let Dr. Lee know that but now I am a firm believer in upper cervical spine care. If your starting to have pain or had it for a long time and traditional Chiropractic either scares you or docent work, it's Time to check out Upper Cervical Chiropractic and of course Dr. Lee. I waited this long to post (which I never review anything) to make sure I could make an honest recommendation.

I'm also a strength trainer and I recommend that all my clients see her if they need any chiropractic work. I can't thank you enough Dr. Lee! Less

I've been going to UCC for 2 years now. I have a 20+ yr old neck injury that is causing some problems for me. Dr Lee has improved the range of motion and discomfort considerably. She uses a drop table to push and reposition your vertebrae over several visits. I am very thankful I found this place and Dr Lee. I would recommend to anyone who has upper cervical neck problems and cannot go to a regular twist and crank chiropractor. 4/5 stars, since it can get expensive to visit regularly since it's out of network.

My daughter starting seeing Dr. Lee about three months ago, and since then she has seen a major improvement in her health. She crashed on an ATV a few months prior and began to experience a range of symptoms such as headaches, back and neck pain, heart palpitations, dizziness, and numbness. We finally figured out that it might be something to do with the crash affecting her neck, and Dr. Lee agreed once she did exams and took x-rays. She began treating my daughter two or three times a week. The visits are short (about 15 minutes) which is convenient. Dr. Lee is usually quick and thoughtful, but a few times my daughter felt like her visits were rushed and not as thorough as they could have been. But overall it has been a good experience and my daughter is grateful to have her health back. Less
"I moved to San Diego from Sonoma County last August. In Santa Rosa I was being treated by and upper cervical chiropractor. I have had much success in that form of treatment.

I highly reccommend this form of treatment and Jessica Lee." Less

The results have progressively lowered my pain levels. Last weekend I had a major breakthrough, I walked an entire 5K without having to stop and stretch to alleviate pain. I made it the full distance without any pain! JOY to say the least. This weekend I went one step further and attended a 3 day convention. Same thing, no pain. Dr. Lee has made the little things in life enjoyable again. Thank you Dr. Lee! Less
Dr. Lee is awesome! I've had decades of chiropratic treatments due to some serious head injuries and never got any lasting relief, not to mention some were even adding to the damage I already had. I was a bit apprehensive to try something new but I'm so glad that I did.

Dr. Lee is awesome! I've had decades of chiropratic treatments due to some serious head injuries and never got any lasting relief, not to mention some were even adding to the damage I already had. I was a bit apprehensive to try something new but I'm so glad that I did. I've been seeing Dr. Lee for over 6 months and I now feel there is a hope that I can truly improve my spinal conditions and have a better quality of life free of constant pain. She has been a wonderful inspiration. She is so upbeat and positive, and very focused on how to best help me get better. Not the usual cookie cutter impersonal approach that is so often experienced. You will not be disappointed in the wonderful results you get with Upper Cervical Chiropractic. Oh, and not to forget, Sandra, the front office assistant is another bright light and always so helpful in scheduling appointments and helping to find a time slot on the spur of the moment if I am having a problem. I will be posting updates as my treatment continues. Less

My name is Manny. I have been suffering from years of low back pain due to my occupation. I also suffered a whiplash injury from a car accident a few years ago where my vehicle was T-boned. After the accident, I developed neck pain and my ribs on the left side would hurt. Medical doctors could not find what was wrong and their X-rays came back negative. I sought a chiropractor for my pain and had been going to him for 2 years, but I never got any lasting results, not even with massage therapy. My discomfort was causing me a lot of stress and frustration. It would interfere with my work as I have to drive long distances on a weekly basis and lift heavy objects. My knees would start hurting after long periods of standing and in the last two years I started to notice that I was developing a weak grip in my right hand. When I met Dr. Jessica, she asked about my digestion and I told her that I have had acid reflux for my whole life and I would have to take medication to relieve my symptoms. Often, I would be up in the middle of the night feeling the reflux, which prevented me from getting any rest. I did not realize at the time that chiropractic had anything to do with my digestion. After a few gentle adjustments, I have noticed significant changes in how my body functions. My low back no longer bothers me, even when I drive long distance. My body feels better and more balanced, and the most surprising thing is that my acid reflux has cleared up! I no longer have to take medication to manage the reflux and I can sleep through the night. Even my family members have noticed that I no longer have to take pills. I have more energy during the day, my thoughts are much clearer (no more brain fog), and my body feels much more balanced. I feel great! Less

If you are looking for a chiropractor in SD, look no further because Dr. Lee is simply superb! She cares about her patients and provides comprehensive information in order to ensure that her patients receive the best care possible. About eight months ago, I started experiencing shoulder pain and found out it was associated with a past head injury from many years ago. After seeing a traditional chiropractor for 6 months, I noticed my shoulder pain progressively got worse despite seeking consistent care three times a week. I continued to look for solutions through the means of acupuncture and even sought medical advice from two different doctors who both told me just to take ibuprofen (for the rest of my life). I wanted to find the root cause to my problems and didn't think the medication route was practical for someone in their early 20s. I stumbled upon Upper Cervical Chiropractic SD on yelp and decided to schedule an appointment for a consultation. I was hesitant about seeing another chiropractor, but Dr. Lee ensured me that she would only treat me if she truly believed she could help me. We had a thorough talk about my symptoms and took multiple x-rays... And fast forward to almost one month of receiving non-invasive adjustments, I feel drastically better in both my physical and mental health. After experiencing body pain and tension for more than half a year, I believe I have found the best care that will help me feel (100%) like myself again! I highly recommend Upper Cervical Chiropractic SD for anyone who wants to feels better in all aspects of their health! Less

I've been seeing Dr. Lee for a couple of years now because the results speak for themselves. I used to suffer from daily headaches and neck pain that accumulated over time from a prior car accident, snowboarding, and also countless hours hunched over studying during college. I often found it difficult to focus at work and do my tasks. I had chiropractic care before, but had never had upper cervical chiropractic. I was amazed at how simple and gentle the technique is, plus how effective it is. I'm happy to say that the headaches and neck pain I used to experience have reduced significantly. Instead of daily, I get them about 1 time every 1-2 months. Dr. Lee is very friendly and upbeat with her patients. She is also very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about what she does. I'm so grateful to have found Dr. Lee and I still continue to see her monthly as part of my self-care routine. Less

Back pain/problems run in my family. EVERYONE on my fathers side have had the same back issues with herniated discs. My whole life I have been afraid of following their same path (needing back surgery and being limited physically after the age of 40), so I have been diligent about diet/exercise/stretching the past 15 years. Unfortunately, with all that work I still had back pain ~ albeit subtle. It wasn't until I began working with Dr. Lee that the pain went away entirely. We're actually able to get out ahead of potential future problems by ensuring that my body is in complete alignment to allow for natural healing. Many unexpected benefits as well: More energy during the day, I fall asleep much more quickly at night, and a "click" in my right knee that I've had my entire life is now gone. Simply put, Dr. Lee is incredible. I love how the intention of her work is to see her patients LESS by ensuring pristine Upper Cervical Health. Less
