About Me

I am a passionate results driven clinician who strongly believes that everyone deserves to live their lives free from pain, injury, and discomfort; doing what they love. I provide evidence-based personalized care using a biopsychosocial approach to relieve pain, improve function and promote health and wellbeing. I triage, evaluate, assess, request/review x-ray and laboratory investigations, diagnose, and manage patients with rheumatologic, sports, orthopedic, and musculoskeletal conditions; including complex undiagnosed, undifferentiated multifactorial conditions. Beginning my career as a Rotational Physiotherapist, I have also gained valuable knowledge and skills in Cardiopulmonary, Neurological, Medical, MSK, Orthopedics/Surgical, and Sports Physiotherapy across all age population.
