Our Dr's
Dr. Elizabeth Easterling
“Over the last nineteen years, I have had the pleasure of helping thousands of people suffering from spinal problems, headaches, whiplash injuries, injuries of the extremities and tendinosis, babies with colic and ear infections (the parents were usually the most grateful), children and adults with scoliosis, disc injuries and TMJ problems”. Dr. Easterling’s specialty and interest include family wellness, treating all ages from babies to the wisest and most senior of our Okanagan residents. She incorporates many different techniques in order to customize her care to suit every individual need. She has also acquired the Certified Extremity Practitioners Diploma and is therefore highly qualified to treat problems such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis/golfers elbow, shoulder injuries, ankle/foot sprains/strains, knee and hip problems, tendonitis and arthritis.
Dr. Easterling graduated from the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in Bournemouth, England in 1989. In 1994 she completed an 18 month long post graduate course in Veterinary Chiropractic from the McTimmoney college of Chiropractic in Oxford, England.
Dr. Pat Bickert
Dr. Bickert is the father of seven children (5 boys and two girls), and now has two grand-children. This experience with kids made it a natural for him to offer chiropractic care for children and he has developed a large, successful, Family Practice in which he treats more than twice the number of children in his office than the average chiropractor.
Dr. Bickert has been practicing in B.C. since his graduation in 1983 from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College of Toronto. In addition to Family Practice, he focuses on Whiplash Injuries, and networks with local lawyers on some of the more difficult cases that require legal representation.
In addition to Chiropractic treatment Dr. Bickert has also incorporated Custom Orthotic Therapy into his practice and works with two primary providers to fit his patients with Custom Orthotics to fit his patients' lifestyle, whether geared to sports, casual walking, standing on hard surfaces at work, etc. Says Dr. Bickert, "The foot is the foundation of the body, and proper support there helps correct many of the problems higher up in the knees, hips or spine."
Patrick has dedicated 15 years, in addition to his practice responsibilities, to service to the chiropractic profession by serving on two professional boards: the BC Chiropractic Association and the College of Chiropractors of BC.
