meet the team

I immediately felt at ease, and felt confident in receiving excellent medical care. Dr. Ellen Derrick is the best!!! She provided a thorough examination, explained the problem and the various options to address it. I couldn’t be happier with the amazing care I received and I highly recommend BoxBar Vascular.
