Derek Ellgen
(DPT • Clinic Director)
Derek Ellgen enjoys living and working in a rural community where he can use a variety of skills. He sees patients at the Ephraim Outpatient Clinic, Sanpete Valley Hospital, and home health in the surrounding area. Derek also spends time helping athletes at Manti High School and Snow College.
“I chose this career because it allows me to help others reach their goals and return to their normal activities. I enjoy assisting patients through their rehab journey and being part of the healing process. It’s important to me to develop a relationship with each patient, making sure their needs and concerns are met.”
