Dr. Derek is passionate to work with patients wanting to improve their quality of life, increase their level of activity and mobility and achieve their personal goals and dreams.

When Dr. Derek isn't in the office, you can find him golfing, at the movie theatres, or playing lacrosse. He looks forward to playing for the local Victoria crowd this summer with the Sr. A Victoria Shamrocks.
