She supports patients in South Jordan, Riverton, West Jordan, Herriman, and surrounding communities providing care in women’s health, pediatric care, adult medicine, sports medicine, weight loss medicine, mental health, and more.

Dr. Derzon is passionate about helping patients feel heard, and educating them about their medical care, so they can make the best decisions for their health. Her philosophy of care surrounds a quote by Theodore Roosevelt: “People don’t care about how much you know until they know how much you care.” She aims to be empathetic, respectful, and seek the best for her patients so when treatment plans are presented, they feel supported.
