Big day ahead!!!!

We want to wish our very own Ashley Petrie and her crew the best of luck as they take on the 2026 London Marathon tomorrow. 🏃‍♀️

The dedication it takes to get to this start line doesn’t go unnoticed - the early mornings, lunchtime runs, and your consistency along the way are truly inspiring.

We’re missing you at the clinic this week but we'll be cheering you on bright and early tomorrow morning!

Good luck, we know you're going to kill it!

Big news this week and we couldn’t be more excited to share it!

Our amazing physio aide, Allison Wadden (and a very proud moment for her uncle, Mike 😉) is heading to University of New Brunswick Saint John to play soccer!

Allison has put in countless hours of hard work, dedication, and commitment to get to this moment, and it truly shows. She’s a standout athlete on the field and an even better person off it.

We are so proud to have her as part of our team and can’t wait to cheer her on in this next chapter. UNB Saint John is getting a great one 💙⚽️

Please join us in welcoming Allison Wadden to
Allison brings a high level of soccer intelligence, constantly reading the game and getting involved in the buildup. Her confidence on the ball and ability to anticipate play make her a player who can truly influence the game.
With her technical skill and commitment to growth, we’re excited to see the impact she’ll make both on and off the field this season.
Welcome to the Seawolves family, Allison

💙 Today we’re celebrating three people who help keep our clinic running smoothly everyday - Mel, Ashley, and Kathy 🤍

They’re often the first friendly face or voice you connect with, and they do an incredible job keeping our days organized, our schedules on track, and our patients supported every step of the way 😊

From managing a busy front desk to helping with appointments, billing, setting up patients and everything in between — they do it all with professionalism, kindness, and a positive attitude.

We truly couldn’t do what we do without them.

💙 Happy Administrative Professionals Day, Mel, Ashley, and Kathy — we appreciate you today and every day for everything you do! 🤍

Teal to Heal is an event that hits especially close to home for us. Mike's wife Dena founded the event after she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. They know first hand the barriers that Cape Bretoners who are diagnosed with gynecological cancers face in their recovery. This includes having to travel to and from Halifax for numerous appointments.

This incredible event supports the Teal at Home Fund, helping individuals and families in our community living with gynecological cancer.

We’re inviting our friends, patients, and community to join our team and be part of this amazing event 💙:
