Every Saturday, 7:30 AM to 1:00 PM. For people whose work week never leaves room for their own health.
Most people don't skip chiropractic care because they don't want it. They skip it because the only appointments available are during the hours they're being paid to be somewhere else.
Saturday morning exists for that reason. It's a full clinic session, not a reduced one — same examination, same unhurried approach, same one-patient-at-a-time format we run every other day of the week. Dr. Ben Glass sees patients on Saturdays.
If you're not sure what a first visit involves or how care gets planned and priced, read how care works before you book. It answers most of it.

Practising in downtown Oakland since 2013 has made it fairly clear who needs this slot.
When Monday through Friday belongs to your calendar, 7:30 on a Saturday is when your own health finally gets a slot. In and out before the weekend really starts.
Training through the week and racing or lifting at the weekend leaves little room for recovery work. Mobility, extremity work and sports care that doesn't begin by telling you to stop training.
Saturday is when a family can actually come in together — prenatal care, children, and adults, in one trip instead of three.
A back that seized up on Friday evening doesn't improve by waiting until Monday. Getting assessed early usually means a shorter road than getting assessed late.
Walking distance from downtown Oakland and Jack London Square hotels. Single visits are welcome — you don't need to be starting a plan.
You don't have to hurt to be here. Saturday wellness visits are how a lot of our longest-standing patients keep things from becoming a problem.

No — the office is closed on Sundays. Saturday morning is our weekend availability, and it runs every week rather than on selected dates.
Yes. A first visit on a Saturday works the same as any other day: full health history, examination, and a conversation about what we found. Allow a little more time than a routine visit.
Yes. There's a paid lot right outside — $3, cash only, as of October 2026 — and it usually has space. We don't validate parking. Street parking is also usually available. By BART, we're a 4-minute walk from 12th Street BART and about 12 minutes from Lake Merritt BART.
No. There's no weekend surcharge: Saturday visits cost the same as weekday visits. As of October 2026, a first visit is $135 (the exam, the first adjustment and a follow-up report-of-findings visit) and visits after that are $60–$80, depending on whether you're on a care plan or paying per visit; confirm current prices when you book. The total for any recommended plan is shown to you in writing before you agree to it. More on how that works.
Saturday slots are limited to one morning a week, so they tend to fill first. 435 8th Street #203, downtown Oakland.
