Dr. Derrick Lensgraf
Dr. Derrick Lensgraf, D.C. is a chiropractic physician at Peak Chiropractic in Portland, Oregon. He is a 4th generation chiropractor specializing in McKenzie Mechanical diagnosis and treatment for functional healthcare. Dr. Derrick and the previous generations of his great grandfather, grandfather, and father all graduated from Palmer college of chiropractic.
Dr. Lensgraf’s choice to become a chiropractor himself came from watching his father and grandfather help many people through their chiropractic practice. This left an impression on him. During his high school years, after considering other careers, he decided to become a chiropractic physician. He seized the opportunity to improve the lives of patients and join his family’s chiropractic practice.
In 1952 the Lensgraf family started practicing in Louisiana and today still have a large multi-doctor practice located there helping patients with chiropractic care. However, over the last 10 years they have expanded into the Portland, Oregon area and this is where Dr. Derrick Lensgraf began his path as a chiropractic physician.
After high school, he attended OSU and went on to study at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Iowa and is now very happy to be back in Oregon making the area his home. Currently, he is focusing on continuing his education, learning techniques such as McKenzie, an internationally acclaimed method of assessment and treatment for spinal and extremity pain which is highly effective in treating patients. When he is not in the office or focusing on continuing education he enjoys tasting the diverse foods of Portland, reading, and learning digital art. With all the great views in Oregon, he also likes to spend time outside taking photos.
Dr. Derrick Lensgraf is happy to be living and working in the Pacific Northwest. He is excited to meet the people of his community in the future and provide his chiropractic services. Improving the health of his patients is what he looks forward to every day he walks into the office.
Patients of Dr. Lensgraf are already speaking highly of the care they receive from him. One of his patients recently wrote, “I am pain free and out walking a mile and ¾’s a day. Doing good for a 72 year old nice lady”
