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.

I came to see Dr. Lee over the holidays with a bulged/herniated disc which was incredibly painful and radiating through my left leg. Dr. Lee took the time to listen to my symptoms and with just a few sessions of acupuncture and chiro the pain went way in a matter of a few weeks. I would highly recommend Dr. Lee as he is attentive, makes you feel comfortable right away, and delivers amazig results.

Dr Lee is very knowledgeable and always takes time to explain his treatment approach so that it’s easy to understand. Under his care I feel like I have tangible treatment plan.

Derek is extremely knowledgeable and has always got me back on track from a healing perspective through his treatments and supplement regimes and helps me navigate stress, fatigue, and changing hormones as a woman in her 40’s. I have been seeing Derek on and off for nearly 15 years and I highly recommend him.

Dr Lee is amazing! I’m so happy and satisfied with his work! We are almost done with my 10 sessions for my calcifications on my rotator cuff and after the first 2 sessions I already started seeing great results! Now I decided to have my orthotics done with Dr. Lee! I’m so excited for my orthotics because I was suffering for a couple of years now with my feet. I also got my supplements from Dr. Lee and I started to feel like myself again! Thank you for all your help in my recovery process!

So happy I reached out to Dr Lee he talked through my daughters scoliosis diagnosis options. He made sense of such a complicated topic when there is so much information available he helped make sense of it all and helped me to see a clear path ahead.

Dr. Lee provides excellent service for acupuncture, cupping and therapeutic ultrasound. Treatment helped with mobility issues and overall health. Would recommend for therapeutic services.
