Tired of Temporary Relief?
We understand that many new patients arrive at our clinic frustrated. You may have tried chiropractic, physiotherapy, or medication separately, without seeing lasting results.
It is a common pattern we see every day: disjointed treatments addressing only part of the problem.
The Dr. Lee Difference: Our practice is built on a truly integrated approach. We combine a deep understanding of structural mechanics (Chiropractic) with physiological balance (TCM Acupuncture) to identify the root cause of your condition—not just treat the symptoms.
What to Expect on Your First Visit
Step 1: The Consultation
We start by listening. You will have a one-on-one consultation to discuss your full health history, current challenges, and recovery goals. Understanding your story is the critical first step.
Step 2: The Dual-Perspective Assessment
Dr. Lee conducts a detailed physical examination from two distinct, regulated perspectives: Chiropractic and Traditional Chinese Medicine. This allows us to see the complete picture—from joint mechanics to tissue health.
Step 3: Your Personalized Plan
We don't do "cookie-cutter" treatments. You will receive a clear explanation of your root cause and a custom treatment plan designed to get you better, faster.
Maximize Your Insurance Coverage
One of the unique advantages of our clinic is Dr. Derek Lee’s dual licensure. Because Dr. Lee is both a Chiropractor and a Registered Acupuncturist, he has the unique ability to help you utilize a wider range of your employment benefits.
How It Works: Most insurance plans separate your benefits into distinct "buckets"—one for Chiropractic and one for Acupuncture. At a standard clinic, a chiropractor or physiotherapist cannot access your Acupuncture benefits, meaning those funds often go unused.
Dr. Lee’s dual credentials allow him to unlock both benefit categories. This flexibility allows us to structure your long-term care to take advantage of whichever coverage is most beneficial for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: Do I need a referral? A: No. Chiropractors and Acupuncturists are primary care providers in Ontario, so you do not need a referral to book an appointment. However, check your specific insurance policy, as some plans may require one for reimbursement.
-
Q: What should I bring? A: Please bring any relevant medical documents (such as X-ray or MRI reports) and a list of current medications. Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement during your assessment.
-
Q: How does the "Combo Treatment" billing work? A: We keep it simple. While the treatment integrates both therapies, we will bill your visit under the specific license (Chiropractic or Acupuncture) that maximizes your available coverage for that session.

Dr.Lee is amazing at what he does! I had really bad back pain and only after one visit, the improvement was huge. The pain was completely gone after a few more visits.

I have had 3 treatments so far with Dr Derek Lee. So far I have noticed a great reduction of the pain I was feeling in my legs. I know I still have a long way to go but it is getting more manageable. Dr Lee is very professional and has a pleasant personality. He doesn't rush you and is very gentle and firm at the same time. I would recommend Dr Lee to anyone that needs pain relief. He does chiropractic and acupuncture treatments if you need both. Thanks Dr Lee Gerry

I’ve had an outstanding experience working with Dr. Derek Lee on a personalized health plan. From the start, Dr. Lee provided a thorough analysis of my blood work and clinical history, explaining everything in clear, easy-to-understand terms. His Integrated Health Assessment connected my symptoms—chronic sinus issues, joint pain, and stress—to underlying systemic inflammation, and he designed a Phased Supplementation Protocol tailored specifically to my needs. What impressed me most was the level of detail and care in his recommendations. The plan was structured, transparent, and included cost estimates upfront. Dr. Lee also provided ongoing guidance, adjusting the approach based on my progress. After starting Phase 1, I noticed significant improvements: Throat congestion reduced by about 90% Nasal drip decreased by 60% Upper back inflammation dropped to roughly 10% of what it was Overall mental and physical well-being improved noticeably Communication has been excellent throughout—Dr. Lee responds promptly, explains next steps clearly, and genuinely cares about patient outcomes. He even advised me to stay the course with Phase 1 until progress plateaued, which shows his focus on achieving the best results. If you’re looking for a personalized, science-based approach to health, I highly recommend Dr. Derek Lee. His expertise, professionalism, and patient-first attitude make a real difference.

I can't say enough about Dr. Derek Lee! He created a personalized treatment program for me that's already made a difference for me. When I had an emergency issue and needed care, he fit me in right away and has me feeling better in a matter of days! His knowledge, care and attention to explaining everything so I understand made me very comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Derek Lee to anyone in need of a chiropractor. He genuinely cares about his patients!

Dr. Lee was very professional and thorough with our scoliosis and orthotics diagnosis. He was also kind enough to wear a mask upon request to accommodate our needs. Would definitely recommend him to anyone with scoliosis issues.
