About Dr. Setareh Derakhshan

Dr. Setareh Derakhshan graduated from Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in 2011. She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from Georgia State University. She is currently specializing in Neurology at the Carrick Institute of Graduate Studies and she will be board eligible in 2014. As an intern, she trained with the renowned chiropractic neurologist Dr. Shad Groves. This training sharpened her diagnostic and treatment skills. In caring for patients Dr. Derakhshan uses a gentle yet very effective approach. Her belief is that if the diagnosis is correct, the treatments are much more effective. Dr. Derakhshan has training in functional medicine. Functional medicine addresses the underlying causes of disease, by evaluating how the body is performing. By shifting the traditional disease-centered focus of healthcare to a more patient-centered approach, functional medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. Dr. Derakhshan spends time with her patients, listening to their histories and looking at the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic disease. In this way, she can support the unique expression of health and vitality for each individual.

Verified patient
Super informed and understanding. Not the same old thing, she listens, diagnoses, and proceeds accordingly. Changes treatment with differences in changes in the patient's needs. So much better than any previous chiropractor's approach
Verified patient
They did a bait and switch. The chiropractor on ZocDoc wasn’t even scheduled for the day that I booked her, but they didn’t bother to tell me until I arrived. Also, they wouldn’t do a full chiropractor consult unless I got X-rays that were expensive and the initial appointment was more than double I’ve ever been charged even though it wasn’t a full chiropractor evaluation
Very awesome Dr. However the intro meeting one should book their schedule for a two hour window because she goes over a lot of things and even performsx-rays so she can treat you properly. I like chiropractors that do that because I never could understand how Chiropractor could just crack your back without even looking at your spine. I’ll definitely be coming back!!!
Verified patient
Great
Verified patient
Excellent experience very professional knowledgeable courteous helpful very experienced in the business of chiropractor felt a lot of pain relieved friendly and very professional in this business excited about my follow ups.
Verified patient
Wonderfull!
Verified patient
They booked my appointment and had my insurance info before I arrived. When I arrived, after about 20 min I was told my visit was not covered by my insurance. I had to waste my time and pay for parking. They do not validate. Very unprofessional
Verified patient
Great experience. Thorough assessment with x-rays and detailed explanation of issue and treatment. Managed to fit me in last minute for an emergent issue. Highly recommend.
It was a decent visit and the experience was professional. I will have to say, the main reason I chose the provider was because I was only comfortable with a female provider, as a woman myself. It was a surprise to me when I didn’t have the provider I researched and booked with but rather it was a male provider. While he was great and professional, I spent the first 10 minutes of the appointment confused thinking I would get the doctor I originally requested when I ended up never meeting her or hearing anything about her. While it was a fine visit, it didn’t stand out and I didn’t get the provider I asked for so I probably will be seeking a place that has a female chiropractor who will see me.
Verified patient
Definitely going back!
Dr. Derakhshan was an inspiration and a relief for the problems that I had when I walked in. Her personal presence and professional expertise are both first class. I will be recommending family and friends to her.
Verified patient
I am blown away by my amazing chiropractor appointment with Kristina Tauran. She took her time getting to know my health history, which parts of my body that were in pain and a very thorough examination before even adjusting me (which I had never received before and really shows her fabulous work ethic) I had never experienced that much care and attention to my needs before hand. ?I could really tell she values her job and the positive outcome of her patients as she takes her time getting to know your pain. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a chiropractor that will actually help you get better!
Verified patient
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit with the doctor he took the time to listen to my issues and have some great advice I will be back for a continued visit
Verified patient
I would highly recommend this doctor. She listens well, explains and advises accordingly, and consistently has a friendly attitude. All of her staff is also so nice and respectful. So glad I found her through Zocdoc!
Verified patient
I love the relaxing environment! Very quick appointment. The adjustment she did makes me already notice a difference in my posture and helped relieve some tension as well! Can’t wait to come back.
Verified patient
Very professional Best chiropractor in Pasadena??
Verified patient
This space is very welcoming and professional! I was able to do some cupping before my adjustment and the dr. talked me through a lot of stretches I can do at home to keep my body aligned. Very informative and accommodating. 10/10 would recommend.
Verified patient
They were great!
Verified patient
I love that you get a little pre-treatment of cupping/ tilting table/ electrodes before getting adjusted... makes the body a lot looser. Dr Keturah is kind and affable and finds all the sore spots to fix.
Verified patient
I found the right place for my injury
Verified patient
i was having stiffness on my hip girdle and left leg. I walked out of there in less pain and feeling light, walking better than before and felt sure that i made the right decision by choosing to come here. I would recommend this place.
Verified patient
I will definitely be coming back, after my first visit I felt amazing and I could feel the difference in my body. I will be a returning patient without a doubt and will be seeing her 2x a week. I’m so happy that I came to this office and glad it is also 10 minutes from my house.
Verified patient
It was great! Dr explained things thoroughly
Verified patient
Dr. Derakhshan was very attentive, nice and informative. She went above and beyond what I expect from a Chiropractor and went through a series of different techniques to prepare me for my adjustments and introduced me to a great guided meditation!
Verified patient
Dr. Derakhshan is amazing! She’s not only going to fix your body’s alignment, she’s going to thoroughly try to help you get to the source of any pain. Highly recommend!!
Verified patient
Amazing !! Loved it !!
Verified patient
Dr. Derakhshan sees her patients as whole people. She empathetically listens to them and understands that health is something that extends far beyond the physical mechanics of well-practiced chiropractic medicine. I have been one of her patients for many years. I highly recommend Dr. Derakhshan and her team!
Verified patient
My first visit was absolutely perfect! I will be returning and will also recommend her services to friends and family. I went in for extreme upper neck and back pain, and Dr. Derakhshan provided excellent treatment and recommendations. I left with much less pain and more mobility. Other ongoing pain I had experienced in my arm was also treated, and I'm able to move around and stretch my arm, which was something I couldn't do for months!
Verified patient
Dr. D is my absolute favorite. Need I say more?

Very professional and knowledgeable
