Jayden Der, M.D.

My primary goal is to help individuals regain function, improve mobility and enhance their overall quality of life. Witnessing the progress and transformation in my patients as they recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions or overcome physical limitations is incredibly rewarding.  

I lead with a focus on patient-centered care. I effectively engage in communication with both the patient and their caregiver, aiming to meet their objectives. I also value the diverse and multidisciplinary aspects of my field, in which I can collaborate with various health care professionals, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, orthopedic surgeons and others. Through this collaborative approach, we can create comprehensive treatment plans that are specifically tailored to meet the needs of each patient.

One of the significant factors that drew me to my specialty was my own personal experience with sports and physical activity, particularly playing hockey. During this time, I encountered a range of musculoskeletal injuries, witnessing both teammates and opponents facing similar challenges. These experiences sparked my interest in understanding the human body's resilience, its capacity for recovery and the importance of comprehensive rehabilitation.
