Journey to becoming a chiropractor
My first introduction to chiropractic was as an injured runner when I was in high school. Even as a teenager I appreciated the well-rounded, holistic manner in which I was assessed. I was more than just a sore knee.
My path from there was relatively straightforward in that I did my undergraduate degree at Queen’s and went straight into CMCC.
Region of practice
I have practised in east-end Toronto Beach(es) for my entire career. Upon graduation, I did a solo start-up and worked alone for many years.
I currently work with a registered massage therapist in my private practice. In addition, I supervise interns providing patient care at the CMCC clinic at Sherbourne Health in downtown Toronto.
