About

Dr. Libby graduated with his Doctorate of Chiropractic from Parker University in Dallas, TX. During his last year of school, he was chosen for the opportunity to work with a sister school, UNEVE, in Mexico City, Mexico. Here he provided care to the local community serving over 400 men, women and children of all ages. He treated an array of conditions ranging from failed back surgeries, severe scoliosis and bulging discs. "Helping this community not only secured my decision of becoming a Chiropractor, but also provided me with the real life experience necessary to go from student to doctor."Derek J. Libby, D.C. was born in Seattle, WA where his fondest memory is feeding the ducks with his mom, dad, brother and sister. He moved to Rancho Penasquitos at the age of 12 where he attended Black Mountain Middle School and Mt. Carmel High School. He participated in football, baseball and track and field along with surfing and snowboarding outside of school. Dr. Libby was raised on chiropractic care in Seattle, but his family was never able to find the same caliber of care at an office in North County. "I had fallen out of chiropractic care and in turn dealt with low back pain from various sports for many years." When he was 18, Dr. Libby was involved in a car accident. After the car accident, his mom recommended he see a Chiropractor for his injuries and continued low back pain. He received relief after a month of care and began seeing a chiropractor regularly. This sparked an interest in the healing arts and led him to do continued research on the benefits of chiropractic. Resea
