Derrick has been in the prosthetics industry for the last 13 years, receiving his BS in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Arizona in 2001. It was at this time that he went to work for the prestigious Beverly Hills Prosthetics and Orthotics.

By 2006 he had finished his residency and passed his boards to become a Certified Prosthetist Orthoist. In 2007, Derrick became a partner in the Grants Pass Spectrum office and that same year spearheaded the opening of the Roseburg Spectrum office.
A few years later, Derrick became a leader in the industry by volunteering to work in Haiti fabricating artificial arms and legs. He trained local Haitian Prosthetists in patient care protocols and follow-up care.
In 2011 Derrick was elected to the Oregon Orthotic Prosthetic Association’s Executive Board.

On top of all this tekkie madness, Derrick fosters a warm and caring environment for the office. He strives to create a homey feel office SOMETHING to facilitate foremost technologies and SOMETHING to optimize functional outcomes.
In his off time, Derrick loves the outdoors, participating in as many triathlons as he can get his “feet” on, mountain bike races and ultra running. Over this past summer, he just completed the Pine to Palm run which is a 100 mile run from Williams to Ashland with over 20,000 feet of climbing, and he also completed a 120 mile Trans-Rockies run in Colorado! Derrick is married and has three children, all of which follow in their parents footsteps as athletes!
Bob Gallagher, CPOA
Certified Prosthetic Orthotic Assistant
Bob started in the orthotic and prosthetic profession thirty-one years ago as a technician working with clinicians and their patients. Bob became inspired to pursue his certification as a pedorthist and prosthetist and orthotic assistant, which he received in 2005. In 2010 he became a BOC prosthetist. He had the opportunity to work in a busy orthopedic office, working directly with the surgeons as a team member for orthotic and prosthetic care. He was fortunate enough to observe foot and ankle surgeries as well as transtibial and transfemoral amputations that gave him a better understanding of patient care.
He also worked with the Rehab hospital with physiatrists and physical therapists to give the best patient care. Bob moved to Colorado to be closer to some of his family out west. Working in Colorado provided further opportunities to work in pedorthics and fitting knee brace braces. After being in Colorado, a position became available in Louisiana as a lead clinician where he worked with a large prosthetic population and gained valuable professional experience. Bob returned to Maine to help the company he worked for rebuild the prosthetics that he had built when he was there originally. Still wanting to be out west, Bob researched Spectrum Prosthetics and Orthotics and found the company that he knows will give him the resources and ability to continue his growth in prosthetics and orthotics as well as to continue his goal to work with orthopedic surgeons, physicians, podiatrists and physical therapists to plan, create and deliver the best patient care possible. His biggest joy is being a part of a team with physicians and physical therapists to help patients reach their full potential.
Bob is excited to live in Oregon, to be closer to his nephews and to be part of a small community with ample outdoor life. Some of his most enjoyable pastimes are gardening with his wife, running, playing the guitar, outdoor photography which he is excited to dive into more as he continues to explore Oregon.
