BackFit Health + Spine recognizes the career trajectory of Dr. Darren Olson, chiropractor at its Surprise location, who pursued chiropractic studies following experiences in sports and personal injury. This acknowledgment underscores individual practitioner backgrounds in healthcare amid broader conversations about diverse training in pain management fields.
Data from health surveys reveal that practitioner experiences influence approaches to care, with studies noting correlations between personal histories and treatment methodologies. Elements like athletic involvement and early exposure to injuries shape perspectives, leading clinics to feature staff narratives that demonstrate dedication to patient wellness. Providers have responded by incorporating such stories to illustrate methods in integrated settings, consistent with trends in medical transparency.
Dr. Darren Olson, DC, was born in Lawton, Oklahoma and moved throughout the U.S. as part of a military family. He became interested in chiropractic when he was in high school and had a football spinal injury where he had persistent headaches for 3 months. Following his first chiropractic adjustment, he received significant relief and thus started pursuing his passion for chiropractic. Following undergrad, Dr. Olson received his Doctorate at Parker University, at which time he then moved his family to Arizona. For the past 20 years, Dr. Olson has enjoyed helping individuals transform their health and their lives through chiropractic care.
In his spare time, Dr. Olson enjoys going fly fishing with his 6 kids, off-road motorcycling, and scuba diving with his wife. His practice includes accident and injury care, activator method, chiropractic adjustments, diagnostic X-rays, diversified technique, flexion distraction, gonstead technique, instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, pain management, physiotherapy, sacro-occipital technique, spinal decompression, sports injury treatment, and thompson technique. Olson has treated professional athletes from the NFL, NHL, and PGA, along with local high school and college athletes.
The clinic combines chiropractic adjustments with medical services to treat conditions such as back pain, muscle spasms, knee pain, bulging discs, headaches, migraines, osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease, carpal tunnel syndrome, scoliosis, and sports injuries. Modalities encompass chiropractic adjustments, therapeutic procedures, acupuncture, natural hyaluronic acid injections, topical analgesics, and customized plans for individual needs.
"Early sports injuries and subsequent chiropractic treatments shaped my understanding of non-invasive recovery methods, guiding my focus on comprehensive patient care," Olson said.
The facility employs a multidisciplinary team, where chiropractors collaborate with medical professionals to develop treatment strategies. This model supports assessments that identify root causes of discomfort, facilitating interventions that promote nervous system function and reduce inflammation.
Dr. Greg Vogel, principal overseeing the location, holds a Bachelor of Science in Physiology from University of Arizona and a Doctorate of Chiropractic from Life University in 2001. Influenced by his father's recovery from a motorcycle accident through chiropractic, Vogel provides accident and injury care, chiropractic adjustments, diagnostic X-rays, manipulation under anesthesia, pain management, spinal decompression, sports injuries, and trigger point injections. He participated in a chiropractic mission trip to Cuzco, Peru. "Evidence-based practices in chiropractic and pain management contribute to patient recovery from various musculoskeletal issues," Vogel said.
Additional team members at the practice include Dr. Doug Beaudette, DC, who holds a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from Brigham Young University, a Doctor of Chiropractic, and a Master’s in Sport Health Science from Life University. Licensed as a medical acupuncturist, Beaudette served 17 years as lead chiropractor at Luke Air Force Base. His specialties cover accident and injury care, activator method, acupuncture, chiropractic adjustments, diagnostic X-rays, and sports injuries.
Dr. Katie Regione, DNP, FNP-BC, family nurse practitioner, earned a Doctor of Nursing Practice from University of Arizona, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Northern Arizona University, and an Associate Degree in Nursing from Central Arizona College.
