What is the most rewarding part of YOUR career?
The most rewarding part of my career is helping people maintain the best quality of life possible whether it be surpassing physical goals, relieving pain, preventing pain or maintaining function. I also love meeting interesting and inspiring new people, as well as the unlimited availability to expand my skill set and evolve. The knowledge around the function, maintenance and treatment of the human body is endless. I feel honoured to work with every individual person on their journey!
IN YOUR OPINION, What sets Pursuit ATHLETIC CENTRE apart FROM OTHERS?
Pursuit offers customized approach to treatment and training executed and tailored to the individual. Adaptable to acute help or ongoing programs. We meet many great people and have the facility and team to accommodate theirs needs. It is such a privilege hearing clients stories and getting to know them at Pursuit.
I also can’t forget to mention the differentiator of working with a kick-butt group of healthcare providers, who care just as much about health and wellness as I do. This grants me the opportunity to learn new things from like-minded experts. Our commodore and team approach is felt in the comfortable vibe our clinic presents as soon as you walk through the door. We’re family and the tone this sets, sets our level of care apart.
