Meet the team. A small office on Century Park Drive, run by people who know this town.

Dr. Gurj Kalay grew up in Yuba City and came back to open Yuba Sutter Chiropractic in January 2017. Angie has run the front desk since 2019, and Natalie looks after you between the two. Three people who will know your name by the second visit.

Dr. Gurj Kalay, DC

Chiropractor and owner · Decompression and auto collision injury specialist

Gurjinder Singh Kalay, though most patients know him as Gurj, Dr. Gurj or Dr. Kalay. He was born and raised in Yuba City in a Punjabi immigrant family. His parents put their own wants aside so their children would have every opportunity, and their work ethic still sets the bar for him.

English was not the first language at home, and from a young age he went along to his parents’ medical appointments to translate. Those visits are where he decided that language should never stand between a person and good care, and they are a large part of why he became a healthcare provider and came back to serve the community that raised him.

The youngest of three, with two older sisters who shaped who he is, he graduated from Yuba City High School in 2005, attended Yuba College and transferred to Chico State, where he found chiropractic. He earned his Doctor of Chiropractic at Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose in 2014.

In 2015, shortly after graduating, he married his best friend. He spent two years as a chiropractic associate in Yuba City, and in January 2017, with the encouragement of patients, friends and family, opened Yuba Sutter Chiropractic, on his thirtieth birthday. Opening his own office by thirty was a personal goal, and it remains one of his proudest accomplishments. Patients have since voted the office Best of Yuba‑Sutter‑Colusa more than once, which he takes as a reason to keep raising the standard rather than a finish line.

In the office, the rule is simple: every patient gets treated like family. He has been caring for people in the Yuba Sutter area since 2014 and plans to be here for a long time yet.

Away from the table he likes connecting with people and staying active, and he is a committed Manchester United and Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan. At home he is a husband (often the most annoying one, according to his wife) and a self-described girl dad to three daughters, doing his best to be their everyday superhero.

Receptionist and admin, since 2019

Everyone calls her Angie. She has lived in the Yuba Sutter area for twenty years, graduated from Yuba City High, and has run the front desk here since 2019. She is bilingual in English and Spanish.

Outside the office she spends her time with family and volunteers with several local non-profits.

Natalie Flores

Medical assistant and protocol technician

Natalie is the one who makes sure you feel comfortable and looked after from the moment you walk in, through the exam, and on the way out. She is bilingual in English and Spanish.

She takes pride in attentive care and in getting to know the people she sees every week.

While other professions are concerned with changing the environment to suit the weakened body, chiropractic is concerned with strengthening the body to suit the environment.

How we practice.

  1. 01

    Find the cause, not just the symptom.

    A sore back is a signal. Dr. Kalay looks for the structural reason behind it, so care fixes the problem rather than bandaging it.

  2. 02

    Non-surgical first, under one roof.

    Adjustments, spinal decompression, laser and SoftWave therapy are all here, so you can try the conservative options before anyone talks about injections or surgery.

  3. 03

    No language barrier.

    Dr. Kalay speaks Punjabi and spent his childhood translating at his parents’ appointments. Angie and Natalie both speak Spanish. Nobody is left guessing what the plan is.

  4. 04

    Decide before you pay.

    Your first consultation is complimentary, and the staff will check your insurance benefits before care starts, so you know where you stand.

Come meet us. The first visit is on us.

Your first consultation with Dr. Kalay is complimentary. Call, book online, or walk in during office hours and we will take it from there.
