Meet the Doctor
Darin Kats, DC
I grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska. My father, uncle and cousin are all chiropractors and my sister is a chiropractic assistant, so I had a lot of encouragement to go into chiropractic.
I did all my undergraduate work in Nebraska and all my chiropractic education was done in Texas. I attended both Parker Chiropractic College and Texas Chiropractic College. Because I attended both schools, I was exposed to multiple methods of chiropractic care (over 20 different techniques). I have taken nearly twice as many hours in chiropractic adjusting techniques as compared to if I would have stayed at just one of the colleges.
My Chouteau office is not large but it is very efficient. We provide all the "normal" chiropractic procedures but also provide a lot of extra procedures which can be a great benefit to the patient. These procedures include, physio therapies such as ultrasound and electro muscle stimulation and spinal decompression.
I like to think I have reasonable fees and good "bedside manner" but you'll have to stop in and see for yourself.
I attend church in Broken Arrow and I am also active in a few other civic groups.
Why did I pick Chouteau? Well, about 7 years ago I purchased a 5-acre piece of land just South of Chouteau (east of Mazie). I don't live there full time but I love to fish and especially target shoot and I'm out there a lot. Chouteau is a great place - close to the city, but still far enough away! Practicing here is one of the best decisions I've ever made. After owning and running 4 locations at the same time (Broken Arrow, Owasso, Sand Springs, Claremore) with my father, this is definitely where I belong.

Health Insurance & Chiropractic
Chouteau Chiropractic is only "in network" with Blue Cross Blue Shield. All other insurance is out of network and is typically less expensive to use "cash" (see below).
Cash Pay
Most patients at Chouteau Chiropractic pay using cash, check or credit card. Cash pay is considered anything other than insurance and includes check, credit/debit cards or cash.
Diet
This is hard to believe but overeating has a worse affect on your health than smoking - not that either one is good! Losing as little as 10 pounds has a beneficial effect on your body.
Spinal Decompression
If you feel like you've tried about everything and still have back or neck problems you may want to try spinal decompression. If you would like to come in to the office, I'd be happy to talk to you about it.
