Meet Dr. Karen, MD

I didn’t just go to medical school.  I was called to the Obstetrics & Gynecology field of medicine while in high school, during a biology class in grade 10.  I became a very successful practitioner and was dedicated to healing women.  Over time, I realized that I was seeking out other resources and modalities that would assist my patients more than what was provided to me by my medical education, training and practice guidelines.

Feeling the strain of not being able to serve my patients to the best of my ability started to chafe.  Such that after 12 years of practice, I realized that only a fraction of my patients were receiving the healing they craved and the healing I wanted to provide. 

So I left my practice of Western Medicine, pursued “alternative” and Eastern Healing Arts which led me on a most interesting journey of self-discovery and self-fulfillment.  It actually started long ago on my fertility journey.

It was 1996…

It was 1996, and I remember the heartache of not being pregnant after over a year of trying.  I was an Obstetrics & Gynecology Resident dammit!  I had access to anyone and I still couldn’t make it work!  I remember vividly the fear that gripped me as I felt like a failure as a woman.   My marriage was on the downslide despite being in the honeymoon phase of newlyweds.  I was filled with shame as I carried a heavy burden.  I only had one fallopian tube. This is what was preventing me from getting pregnant.  Or so I was told…

You see, at age 13, my emergency appendix surgery was a success!  A normal appendix was removed as was the entire right fallopian tube that had knotted on itself and was dying.  That was the source of my acute pain that fateful Saturday morning.  The physical healing post operatively was uneventful.  I was unaware that I was carrying scars of ‘the unknown’ for over 15 years from the simple statement made by the General Surgeon at my follow up visit as he spoke gravely to my Mum:  “She will have trouble getting pregnant.  Sorry.”

I was ever so grateful for my Mum’s insight on a wintery day in 1996.  I was home for a visit.   Mum quickly realized my plight and reminded me of the conversation we had on the drive home after that doctor’s visit long ago, as she inquired as to my thoughts on what the surgeon had said in his office.  I actually hadn’t remembered it.  Laughing, my Mum recounted that I was very insistent and unyielding in my response: “No one is going to tell me that I can’t have my two babies.”  End of story from the view of a then stubborn 13 year old girl.

Armed with this memory, I returned to work and my husband.  It was less than 3 months and I was pregnant!  Delivering my baby boy Jacob, we were so delighted!  Sarah came along as planned 2 years later.

Unconsciously, I had tapped into a power that I will share with you.  “No one is going to tell me…” I am here to remind you of the same.  You are the master of your destiny and no one else.  Let me share with you HOW.

When I’m not working with clients, I love spending time visiting my 2 adult children, meditating under my maple tree, travelling, biking & hiking with my partner, and being in, on, or by the ocean (any body of water will do nicely!). I simply love being in nature! 

The creative part of me loves cooking, gardening, sewing and any home DIY project.  When visiting family & friends, you can find me at the card table enjoying the skills and strategy of “The Master” (aka Granddad) with our favourite game of Auction 45’s or Hearts.
