Meet the Team
Dr. Laura Dobrinsky, D.C.
From a young age, I had a powerful respect for the human body. It wasn’t until I was at university that I started learning more about chiropractic. Its principles stood out to me because they were congruent with my personal beliefs about health and the body. The body holds the key to true health and only when it’s free from interference can it express this full potential. After becoming a patient, and experiencing huge positive changes in my health from chiropractic care my career path was obvious. I had to learn more about this science-based healing art.
After graduating from McMaster University’s Science program, Dr. Laura attended Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto to receive her doctor of chiropractic (D.C.). The science-based programs taught Dr. Laura the foundation she needed. While there, she also began traveling to continue her education at various seminars. She became involved with the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association and Holistic Pediatric Alliance and is certified in Webster Technique. Dr. Laura focuses her continuing education in chiropractic pediatrics, functional chiropractic neurology and the science of Longevity. Read more about Dr. Laura »

I don’t have an athletically inclined bone in my body yet my childhood was filled with all sorts of athletics. My two left feet usually ended up leaving me with an embarrassing story instead of the winning home run. That being said, my parents’ relentless attempts to promote a healthy lifestyle through sport must have rubbed off on me because I went on to pursue a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in kinesiology and psychology from the University of Western Ontario. Like many new university graduates, I had no idea what to pursue next apart from knowing that I wanted a career in healthcare. I was lucky enough to be offered an internship at a local chiropractic clinic and it was there that I became fascinated by the nervous system. Around that time, I began getting adjusted regularly and noticed that after experiencing years of severe recurrent headaches, they were improving. In fact, a headache would resolve almost immediately following an adjustment. Until that point, I had been a lifelong Advil consumer and was astonished that I could experience the same results with a chiropractic adjustment. I couldn’t believe that after 15 years of headaches, the solution was as easy as improving the mobility of my spine and the function of my nervous system. Read more about Dr. Kate »
