Administrators
My journey in healthcare began in 2010 as a Medical Office Assistant in a small Northern Alberta community.
Patient care and advocacy is a true passion I have been privileged to foster over the past 14 years through my positions within the primary care system. It is with great anticipation and excitement that I have been given the opportunity to play a vital role in one of the premier Nurse Practitioner Clinics in Alberta.
I look forward to being a part of a solution to the Healthcare Crisis that our province faces and witnessing firsthand the difference that comprehensive accessible healthcare makes in the lives of our patients.
I have a strong background in business development, with expertise in team dynamics, leadership, and customer relationship management.
I am deeply passionate about fostering exceptional experiences for both our patients and our team.
What excites me most is the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the healthcare industry in Canada, driving positive change in how high-quality care is delivered.

"A year ago, I moved my mom..."
"A year ago, I moved my mom with dementia and heart issues into my home. We struggled to find a doc for her who was willing to take the time and truly listen, not just shove more pills down her. Then we found Karen! Yes, it’s private health care and it costs BUT it’s also the best care by far! Karen took the time to do a full history, a full exam, ordered a ton of tests and blood work just to make sure she had a complete baseline picture. She also did a bunch of “mental function” tests (first provider to do that!). She has been absolutely great dealing with mom, extremely patient and caring. No more assembly line medicine for us, very well worth the cost! "

She provides thorough, outstanding, inclusive care with compassion and understanding. She creates a safe space and cares for the whole person. She is easy to talk to, listens carefully and I listen carefully to all that she shares for the benefit of my health and well being. Anyone would be fortunate to be in her care. She’s all sorts of amazing. "
