Gregory DeCrescenzo, D.C.

Dr. Gregory DeCrescenzo started his education at Rhode Island College and finished his pre-medical courses at New College of California in Los Angeles. He began his chiropractic education in 1993 at Life Chiropractic College West in San Leandro, California, where he was one of the youngest students in his class. After early completion of the clinical requirements to become a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. DeCrescenzo worked as an examination doctor with Athens Chiropractic Clinic in San Carlos, California, formerly the treatment facility for the San Francisco Forty Niners and the San Francisco Giants. It was here that Dr. DeCrescenzo had the opportunity to treat several professional athletes. Dr. DeCrescenzo quickly advanced to the head of the examination department for Athens Chiropractic while also studying for the national boards.

Dr. DeCrescenzo was first introduced to chiropractic at the age of 16 following an injury that he sustained to his lower back while competing in powerlifting. After conventional treatment was ineffective, he sought the care of a local chiropractor. His injuries resolved within two weeks of chiropractic care and rehabilitation. From this period forward, Dr. DeCrescenzo aspired to be a Doctor of Chiropractic. He maintained a friendship with the chiropractor, who kindly sponsored Dr. DeCrescenzo to compete in Russia for a world powerlifting competition.

Dr. DeCrescenzo went on to win several powerlifting competitions, including the title of World’s Strongest Teenager. Dr. DeCrescenzo feels that chiropractic care was instrumental in the success that he attained in powerlifting.

Dr. DeCrescenzo met his wife Dr. Shadi Shakoori while attending Life Chiropractic College West and following graduation, married and returned to East Providence, Rhode Island. Dr. DeCrescenzo and Dr. Shakoori opened their first practice in East Providence in November 1999. Now, the couple owns and operates four chiropractic clinics in Rhode Island. Dr. DeCrescenzo is licensed in California, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. He is a member of the Rhode Island Chiropractic Society and the Italian American Club.

I have been going to DeCrescenzo Chiropractic for many years now. I come in mostly incapacitated and after a few sessions leave with full mobility. I’m always seen in less than 24 hours and the Doctors and support staff are always friendly and caring. It is truly like family.
Everyone was so helpful and attentive to my needs. Very accommodating with the schedule as well.
Went to my first visit and im extremely happy with my results. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. I was weary of going to a chiropractor at first but after my visit I would recommend anyone to DeCrescenzo
Very helpful place to recover from pain
Thank you all
I honestly can't say enough great things about my experience with this chiropractor! I came in dealing with sciatic pain and discomfort that was affecting my daily life, and I wasn't sure what to expect. From my very first visit, I felt completely at ease. The entire team is warm, welcoming, and genuinely cares about their patients.

What impressed me most was how much time the doctors took to listen to my concerns and understand what I was going through. I never felt rushed, and every step of my treatment was clearly explained. It was obvious that they truly wanted to help me feel better, not just treat symptoms.

The results have been incredible. I have my life back!!. Things that used to be difficult or uncomfortable are now part of my normal routine again. Every appointment leaves me feeling better than when I walked in.

If you're looking for a chiropractor who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely invested in your health and well-being, I highly recommend giving them a try. I'm so grateful for the care I've received and only wish I had found them sooner. Five stars isn't enough!
Honestly a great establishment the doctor and staff were all kind and great vibes. Took care of me and had a couple great conversations.
Great staff, I seemed to feel a bit better after my first. Im being treated for minor to moderate arthritis.
