About Derek Flack

Derek Flack, DO, provides care for patients of all ages, with training in newborn and pediatric care, and women’s health. Dr. Flack is certified in functional medicine by the Institute of Functional Medicine.

He obtained his bachelor’s degree in clinical laboratory science from Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. Dr. Flack earned his medical degree from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and completed his residency at the University of Illinois in Peoria, Illinois.

Dr. Flack’s philosophy of care is founded on the understanding that the body and mind have the ability to heal, and he sees his role as a physician as providing direction in that process. While medication can be helpful or essential in some cases, Dr. Flack emphasizes that long-lasting improvements in health are achieved through changing habits. He believes that changes in habits are essential for improving health and that osteopathic and functional medicine philosophies offer tools to help these changes. Improvements in physical and mental health can be achieved when physicians and patients work together.

Outside of his medical practice, Dr. Flack enjoys various types of fishing and is primarily a bass fisherman.
