Parker College Of Chiropractic Jim and John Parker care about their patients. Their roots began at an early age as part of a family who has practiced in the chiropractic field for three generations. The Parker College of Chiropractic was founded by their father in Dallas, Texas, with the Parker Chiropractic Clinic being opened in Irving, Texas in 1997. In 2014, we welcomed Dr. Derek Herms into the practice. Chiropractic care makes a difference, especially when experiencing pain and discomfort from auto accidents, work or sports injuries.
Services
Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, Parker Chiropractic Clinic emphasizes improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could. This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our wellness center.
As a chiropractor in Irving, Dr. Derek Herms is committed to continuing his education and implementing the most up-to-date techniques to deliver high-quality care to his patients suffering from acute and chronic health conditions related to work accidents, sports accidents, auto accidents, and more.
We understand that arriving at a doctors office for the first time can be nerve racking. Filling out paperwork, learning new faces and names, and getting to know your way around the office can be an overwhelming experience. That's why at Parker Chiropractic Clinic our aim is to remove any stress or causing unnecessary tension and to make you feel comfortable. In this area of the website you will be able to take care of items necessary for your visit prior to arriving, in the comfort of your own home.

Dr Herms is THE Man to see! Me and my wife both see him and always have a great experience. Everyone is Very Knowledgeable and will provide personalized care based on your needs. Every time I go, if something is hurting, he will focus on that area and make sure you regain your movement. I personally have over 10 years of back adjustments and have never been given an adjustment that wasn't needed.

I always leave feeling relief ( like my range of motion is restored). Also very reasonable fees if you don't have insurance, they will still take care of you. Don't be afraid or scared to go, because you won't be disappointed.

I arrived at Parker Chiropractic (and to meet Dr. Derek) specifically due to the reviews I'd seen online. So glad I did! I've been to multiple chiropractors over the years with - honestly - very little success. That said, however, they ALL recommended that I become a regular patron so that my issue "might be resolved" over time. One even assured me that I had scoliosis and it would eventually put me in a wheelchair if I didn't address it immediately through intensive chiropractic at his office.

That was completely false. I don't have scoliosis as confirmed by the Spine Team - and now by Dr. Derek. In fact, and to my surprise, Dr. Derek having evaluated my entire condition basically said that chiropractic adjustment alone could not bring me the relief I needed - and then he gave me his best solution opinion! I was completely struck by his simple honesty and CLASS in doing so!

Every other chiro wanted MORE VISITS and more money. Not him: he was more interested in my relief than anything else. That is uncommon in doctors. His tact, professionalism and genuineness is something you have to experience for yourself firsthand. I absolutely encourage anyone to come in and find out what it is not to be "sold" something but rather to deal with a doctor who is extremely knowledgeable and completely about, you, the patient.

The office staff is always great and Derek is awesome. I drive 40 min and pass many chiropractor on my way there because Derek always does a great job and I feel much better when I leave.

Hannah Wilke is the best! She always listens to me, and her adjustments are the best I've ever gotten- very relaxing and exactly what I need every time. You'll walk out of your appointment feeling like a new person!

I have come in a few times now and the staff is friendly and helpful. Dr Derek is a gentleman and a scholar, he really listens and is very attentive to people. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a first chiropractor visit.

Amazing people work here! All they want is to help you Feel 100%. I will recommend to anyone and everyone! Not even a full week of decompression therapy and I can feel a huge difference. Came in with a pain level of 8 and now I'm down to a 1 maybe 2. Friendly staff! Just amazing!

Great staff! Front desk staff knows me by name. Affordable healthcare administered by student interns under the close supervision of very skilled doctors. Treatment plans are personalized to address each patient's unique needs. I have received better and more thorough adjustments here than I have at more expensive Chiropractic offices.

They are very nice to me and they always have a smile on there faces, and are very enthusiastic. If you want quality care with a caring and friendly staff, then this is the place for you. Dr Derek is awesome as is his staff! I was blessed to find them as I had never been to a chiropractor in my life. It's not as scary as you might think. Thank you for all you have done for us.

I am so impressed with this clinic, from the front desk, to all the massage therapists, and Dr. Derek Herms. I have been to 5 different chiropractors in my life and I am so pleased that I was sent to this clinic. Thank you Dr. Herms and staff for taking great care of me.

I would NOT recommend this place. The billing person is rude to everyone and doesnt have any respect for anyone but herself. The owner is never there when he is he interacts in illegal activity or hides in his office so he doesnt have to deal with people. The massage therapist are awesome but its not worth all the other B.S.

Parker Chiropractic Clinic and the staff are absolutely wonderful. I work as a nurse, am on my feet for 12+ hours a day, and have been thoroughly impressed with the diligence, excellence, and dedication that Dr John and his team have taken to ensure that my needs are met. I was very impressed with the thorough assessment that was done on my first visit.

The clear communication about my physical condition, the goals, my expectations, and reviewing the best plan of care made me value and trust this team. I am given the opportunity to participate in my care, showing that they genuinely value my input and concerns. I highly recommend Parker Chiropractic Clinic and regularly tell anyone who has any kind of pain/body/sleep issue to visit! They're also great for maintenance adjustments/visits. You won't regret it.

I have gone to several chiropractors over the past 20 years and have found a home at Parker chiropractic. The doctors are highly skilled and have multiple adjustment techniques depending on your condition and what works best for you. The staff is well trained, helpful, and friendly. In addition to adjustments, they offer a full suite of services including hydro massage, hands on massage, electric stimulation, and decompression.

I am almost 50 years old and thanks to his team, I am able to stay very physically active. Their office is 20 miles from home, but its well worth the extra drive to see someone you trust.

Make sure you read the groupon coupon, ask questions about x-rays, massages and adjustments. Remember: if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all!

I wanted to take a minute and write a few words on Parker Chiropractic Clinic. I have never been to see a Chiropractic before and I was impressed with the amount of professionalism of the staff, their friendliness and willingness to work with you in ever way manageable. I recommend you give this place a try from reading other reviews I am not the only person that feels this way so if you need to see a Chiropractor you should listen to the masses and stop by Parker Chiropractic Clinic you will not be disappointed in the service, cost or professional behavior of all the employees.

This place is FANTASTIC. I have a CareCredit credit card and found them through my list of providers. Before I go into the services let me tell you *why* I needed to go here ASAP. Yesterday I was sitting on my couch watching Sex and the City when BAM intense heavy chest pain, difficulty breathing and an overwhelming feeling of needing to pass out.

I knew this wasn't good so I called someone just in case I did pass out all alone in my apartment. She mentioned she had felt something similar and went to the chiropractor. Once the pain subsided and I felt good enough to drive I called Parker Chiropractic and was able to get an appointment within 30 minutes. When I arrived I mentioned Yelp and instantly had a discount.

The staff here is EXTREMELY friendly and personable. The chiropractor is knowledgeable and clearly enjoys what he does. After doing some X-Rays, laying down on a special water bed with jets and getting snapped-cracked-and popped I instantly felt better. On my 2nd visit I found out what was wrong with me and have a plan to correct the damage I've done over the years. I would HIGHLY reccomend the chiropractor to anyone, heck my boyfriend plans on going next week!
