Dr. Erika Schimek began her post secondary education at McMaster University for Electrical and Biomedical Engineering. She knew she loved science and wanted to see how it could be applied to the medical field. It soon became apparent that her passion was purely with the health side of her degree. Naturopathic medicine best resonated with Dr. Erika's views on healthcare... "A person is more than just a symptom or a prescription" Her path led to the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto for four years of education in the career she loves!

Her philosophy is to address diet and lifestyle factors that help to improve the lives of her patients today as well as for the future.
