Meet Dr. Casey Derr

“My first introduction to chiropractic came when I hurt myself during high school football workouts in the summertime.” Dr. Casey injured his back while lifting and went to a chiropractor, even though he wasn’t sure what they did exactly. “I walked in not even being able to touch my knees, and I walked out basically being able to do cartwheels and touch my toes. The experience was life-changing for me.”

Helping With Hands

Growing up on farms and ranches, Dr. Casey loved using his hands and had a desire to help people with his hands. When he went away to college to play football, he found that, through ongoing chiropractic care, he was able to prevent some of those injuries that he’s had before. He also discovered that chiropractic care helped to elevate his performance. “Combining my passion for helping people, my love of using my hands, and the remarkable experiences I had with the profession led me to embark on a career in chiropractic.”

Obtaining a Chiropractic Education

Dr. Casey earned his Doctor of Chiropractic at Palmer College of Chiropractic – West in San Jose. He liked the fact that the school is focused on exercise and rehab and up with the times on what best helps patients get better and stay better. He implements rehab exercises in the office and shows patients the exercises and stretches that go along with their treatments. Dr. Casey is certified in Active Release Technique® and is a certified RockTape practitioner.

Getting Patients Results

As we’re based in Silicon Valley, we see a lot of patients with chronic, repetitive, overuse issues from working at their desks all day. Many employees from Apple and Google seek care at the practice. “It’s gratifying to get people back to doing what they love quicker than they ever had imagined.”

While he finds tremendous satisfaction in helping patients with their unique needs, Dr. Casey also is happy to ensure patients get critical care from other medical practitioners when necessary. “One of my patients was a woman who was having shortness of breath and fatigue. I found that she had pericarditis and urgently referred her back to get the care that she needed promptly. She was very thankful for that.”

Enjoying an Active Life in Mountain View

When he’s not at the practice, Dr. Casey enjoys spending time with his fiancé Lauren. He also likes trail running and hiking around the Bay Area. Almaden Quicksilver County Park, Mission Creek and Big Basin are some of his favorite places to hike. “I love to get outside and enjoy the hills and mountains.” He also likes wine tasting in Napa and watching sports teams including the Stanford Cardinals, the Golden State Warriors and San Francisco Giants. Since he grew up in Nebraska, he still remains loyal to the Nebraska Cornhuskers. “Go Big Red!”
