Fantastic experience: It's been a few years since visiting Dr. Corey Leung & team at the Vancouver Back Institute for me. Nothing but a great experience! Corey's knowledge & care was evident from our first meeting, uncovering the root cause of my neck and arm pain immediately. His care has helped me maintain my physical wellbeing as I navigate through busy schedule as a parent of two young children. Thank you Corey & team! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I came back to Vancouver Back Institute again for treatment with Dr. Corey Leung, and I’m still just as satisfied as before. Their service has remained consistently professional, caring, and welcoming. Dr. Corey Leung is extremely experienced and also very friendly. He is able to accurately locate the problem areas, and He gives you that kind of “good pain” — the therapeutic soreness that feels uncomfortable in a good way because you know it’s actually helping and resolving the problem. I really appreciate the serious and professional approach here. Every time after treatment, I can clearly feel an improvement in my body condition. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Corey is always professional and respectful. He would ask about the issues patients are experiencing and conduct proper assessment prior to every treatment.

Vivian Chan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I’ve seen Corey for many years now. He is so personable and always tailor the treatment to your need. It always feel like I’m going to see a family friend rather than a doctor for treatment. Highly recommended!

Connie Yeung Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Love the chiropractor here! Corey is attentive and provides good assessment of my problem. Rather than hard selling for more treatment, he suggests that I focus on ergonomics which is spot on! I love his work ethics. Note: this place doesn't take credit card but e-transfer is ok. I think that's fair.

Negative experience: LOVE DR. COREY. Very professional. Lovely and kind. Able end o solve my issue in one visit. BUT POOR RECEPTION training. Front desk refuse to correct my invoice and not willing to submit my MSP claim because I m the last Px of the day. She was able to check on the computer to let me know that I m eligible to MSP coverage but she can’t submit the claim for me because she has already branch out the bank account. I have no idea how she can decide that she has the Authority to take away my citizen right to not submit my MSP claim but just simply ask me to pay out from my extended insurance. Love the DR, will return. But shame on the reception for how she do a poor job on making an appointment for two and showing her “px is not welcoming behavior “

Positive experience: Corey does great treatments but does not offer any online functionality for bookings, you have to pay for parking, and does not have payment options other than cash.

A.J. Kwong Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I was in a serious bike accident a couple of years ago and fractured my spine in several places. I saw physiotherapists and went for numerous massage therapy sessions but nothing was adequately relieving the discomfort and nerve sensation that bothered me on a daily basis. It wasn't until I visited Dr. Corey Leung at Vancouver Back Institute that I finally found some relief from my chronic pain. He and his staff were very patient with all of my questions and were quite approachable. It only took a few sessions for me to see a real difference and I genuinely felt that Dr. Leung was concerned for my health and well being. He was kind, asked the right questions, patient and very welcoming. Professional and friendly do not even begin to describe the great experience I had. I would highly recommend Vancouver Back Institute to my friends and family (and already have).

Vincci Chan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Dr. Corey Leung and the whole team at Vancouver Back Institute have been so helpful during my daughter’s foot injury recovery. He was very caring and knowledgeable. Staff was friendly and punctual. He has helped my daughter to resolve her pain with a minimum number of efficient treatments. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Jason Hui Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Dr Corey Leung is my most favorite Chiropractor. He has the most gentle hand and chair side manor. I never felt being rushed during treatment. I would strongly recommend all my friends to see him.

Laura Chan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Writing on behalf of the husband who got treatment from Corey previously to fix his slipped disc. Corey recommended the spinal decompression. Corey treated husband's excruciating back pain with what seemed like a simple and painless treatment. It really worked. The husband tends to exhibit poor posture when lifting anything heavy. And the x-ray showed proof that it did some bad to his spine. Thank goodness to Corey's magical hands and the spinal decompression machine. It was the only one in Richmond back then. I'm not sure about now. But if we had any issues, we would go back, without a doubt. Thanks Corey and his team for their exemplary work and professionalism.

Vince Chow Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I went to see Corey for my neck and shoulder issue. I had "frozen shoulder" issue 2 months ago and I've seen 2 physio therapists and many sessions of massages -- nothing really worked. Corey's treatment truly helped and improved the range of motion of my shoulder. He shows real care of the patient and deep knowledge of my condition. His logic of what happened to my shoulder totally makes sense -- more importantly, his treatment and methodology really made a difference. Can't say enough how much I appreciate Corey's help!

Perry Chan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I have been visiting Corey and his team for about 3 years. Corey is very nice and friendly, he was able to identify the problem and worked on them efficiently. Also they have super friendly front desk, highly recommended!

Negative experience: I have had 3 appointments at Vancouver Back Institute so far. Although Dr. Corey is a nice guy, charming and probably equipped to treat back pain, I don't believe I got the best treatment for my uneven pelvis (diagnosed by Dr. Corey himself) which has been giving me some sciatic nerve pain. At $55 per appointment (they rec. doing at least 25 appts), I was strapped each time to their machine for 30 minutes and had a cold laser on my affected areas afterwards. I'm not entirely sure how a spinal decompression machine was going to fix my uneven pelvis when the only thing it was treating was my spine. From what i've read online, spinal decompression works best with other therapies (such as stretching and adjustments) rather than just on its own. So clearly that type of treatment on its own wasnt going to get to the root cause of my pain, just relieve some symptoms (which it wasnt successful in doing anyway). I get neck pain from work and although it is probably muscle related, I mentioned it to Dr. Corey and all he did was give me some massage gel to apply to the affected area. When i've gone to chiropractors in the past, they have helped with my muscle pain. I also asked some specific questions about how this machine would help me and was given indirect answers. When I called to cancel the remainder of my appointments, the receptionist said "okay" and then rudely hung up on me. Also, just a suggestion, but if you are going to charge $55 for a cancellation less than 24hrs before the appointment maybe you should be telling clients at the first appointment. And although I did appreciate the "this is the first time cancellation, so we'll let it go but charge the next time", letting your clients know at the first appointment might be a good idea.

Fantastic experience: Corey was able to identify where my lower back pain was coming from right away. He developed a treatment plan and I went back every week for 2 months. We were able to make progress and I haven't felt this pain-free in two years. Thanks Corey, I'll be back for future issues!
