Naomi brings a thorough and patient-first philosophy to her practice, operating on the core belief that effective care starts with understanding the person before treating the condition. She holds a Master of Science in Physical Therapy from Queen’s University and completed her Bachelor of Arts with an honours double major in Kinesiology and Arts and Humanities at Western University, where she was awarded the Western Gold Medal for achieving the highest graduating average in her program. Naomi takes a methodical, detail-oriented approach to assessment and treatment, ensuring that every patient receives a holistic, individualized rehabilitation plan tailored to their specific lifestyle and goals. Her deep commitment to community well-being is also demonstrated by her leadership as former President of the Rotaract Charity Club at Western, where she directed initiatives supporting regional health organizations and environmental projects. She thrives on helping her patients build strength, confidence, and active routines in their everyday lives.

Born in California and raised in Richmond Hill, Naomi is an avid athlete who stays busy with everything from running the Toronto Marathon and competing in Women’s Hyrox doubles to playing recreational volleyball and varsity flag football. Though she considers herself a secret introvert at heart, her easygoing personality is paired with a surprisingly sharp competitive edge whenever a challenge or personal record is on the line. As a teenager, her artistic talent was recognized globally when she won an international shoe design competition with over 20,000 votes, leading to a CBC interview and international collaborations. When she is not in the clinic or training for her bucket-list goal of hiking Machu Picchu, Naomi loves sharing a good laugh with family and bringing that same authentic, approachable warmth to the people she treats.
