Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Wonderful Doctor!!!
This was my first visit, and I am so impressed. Dr. Derr took her time reviewing each area, looking at x-rays and checking physically. Then, she explained what issues need addressing and how that will be done. Everything was explained completely, and she checked to ensure her explanations were understood.At the end of the visit she gave me her card with her email and told me she is happy to answer questions should they come up and that it may be in the evening before she can get back to me depending on her schedule. Well Done Dr. Derr, Thank you so much!

So grateful I found Dr. Derr
Dr. Derr has been treating my pain back pain for a month and I have seen results already. She is a doctor that actually listens to you, works with you, and actually cares about your well being. Dr. Derr is treating my problem and not just suppling temporary pain relief .

Dr. Derr
I visited Dr. Derr for my lower back and neck pain, which had been causing me significant discomfort and stiffness. From the very first couple of visits, Dr. Derr took the time to thoroughly explain my condition and carefully outline a recovery plan tailored to my needs. We started off slow, which made a huge difference in my comfort and progress.What sets Dr. Derr apart is her genuine care and attentiveness. She truly listens and focuses on treating the root cause of the issue rather than just masking the symptoms. I am so grateful to have found a chiropractor like Dr. Derr. If you’re dealing with any back or neck issues, I highly recommend her—she’s the best!

Very Knowledgable..
I have had a good experience with Dr. Derr she listen to you. When I had my X-rays done she was very knowledge about what direction we should take explained it well. I was use to doing the cracking, pushing type of therapy but she introduce me to newer machines that have worked very well for me. I started feeling relieve in my right leg from the first therapy. I had also an X-ray of my neck area as well but after review she suggested seeing a Neck & Spine Doctor and help me set it up. The Doctor also gave me some exercises to do at home in between therapy.

Compassionate Care
She really takes time to understand what is going on so she can target the root of the problem. She is also great in explaining what she is doing and why she is doing it. Patient education is always helpful.

Dr. Derr
Dr. Derr is by far the best Chiropractor I have ever been to. She is very thorough and she took the time to explain everything to me and answer all of my questions. She is very kind and every visit is very pleasant. I feel better every time I leave her office. She has given me tools to use in between visits to speed my healing. I have made tremendous progress since I started seeing Dr. Derr. I highly recommend Dr. Derr. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

I'm in the right hands for my health care.
Each visit with Dr. Derr has been very inspiring. Her knowledge, listening, and answers have all left me feeling that I've found the right doctor for my spinal and back problems. She has a warm, very friendly personality,but that is not overshadowed by her knowledge and ability to clearly explain the intricacies of the body, and spinal area. Her touch is gentle, yet firm. I'm very happy to be in her patient, and excited to see what improvements we can work together for my issues.

First time patient
Dr. Derr seemed very knowledgeable and she was invested in providing me care for my back problems I had been experiencing and trying to resolve the matter quickly and professionally. She was able to give me an adjustment on my first visit and that helped me out so much. Thankful for a great experience.

Excellent service, compassionate care!
Dr. Derr carefully reviews all medical conditions and patient concerns to create a personalized treatment plan - not a cookie cutter solution. She explains each treatment and makes sure you are comfortable with it before starting. She solicits continuous feedback and adjusts treatment accordingly. Appointments never feel rushed. She answers all of my questions and identifies other references that may be of interest. She focuses on educating patients on their chiropractic condition and how it may affect overall health, treatment options, and she coordinates with other providers (physical therapists, pain management, orthopedists) as appropriate. She is available via the patient portal for any questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend Dr. Derr to family and friends!
