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.

Had severe lower back pain today and could barely walk. Received the shock wave treatment and was able to actually go to work even though advised not to. Best treatment and amazing doctor and staff!
I had the greatest experience dealing with the chiropractor’s office in providence. What’s really important is that I was treated and that was with respect in all aspects. The place is absolutely clean, the front fest staff is very professional and the doctor as well. Very kids friendly, clean bathroom, well decorated and they’re very nice. It was a pleasure meeting the team. I recommend this office for treatment!
My time at DeCrescenzo Chiropractic has been nothing short of great. The staff sets a professional yet warm tone the second you arrive. The physician is an expert at what he does; he’s attentive and always makes sure my concerns are addressed. It’s rare to find a place where you feel so seen and cared for, and I always walk out feeling better than when I walked in. So grateful for this team!

The chiropractor actually explained to me. What areas he would be working on to relieve me of my chronic pain?
Looking forward to further treatment
Great place. Great people. Fast attention and nice facility and equipment
Dr. Annie in the Pawtucket office has been over the top helpful to me. I have damage in my back due to my profession, most would not even touch me. She has a gentle manner and even more gentle technique. I havent felt this good in years. I highly recommend these folkes for all your chiropractic needs.
