Dr. Rod Beauchesne
Doctor of Chiropractic
Dr. Rod, as he is called around here, is originally from Saskatoon and, yes, is a die-hard Riders fan. He attained his BSc. (Anatomy) at the U of S, took a year of nursing, then attended Northwestern College of Chiropractic in Bloomington, Minnesota to attain his doctorate. He practiced in southwestern Montana for 2 years before moving back to Canada.
Dr. Rod enjoys the outdoors, keeping active and being active in his church. He, his wife Gloria and two of their (not-so-young) children live in west Edmonton where he ran his own clinic for 18 years before joining WOW; a decision he hasn’t regretted.
Dr. Rod will make a point of including you in your own care. If you aren’t willing to help yourself beyond coming to your appointments, you won’t likely reach your health care goals. 15 minutes per day, per week or per month with your chiropractor won’t help much if you aren’t taking care of yourself in other aspects of your health. That being said, get adjusted regularly; your body will thank you.
Dr. Devin Cathro
Doctor of Chiropractic
Dr. Devin Cathro graduated from Life Chiropractic College West in Hayward California with the distinction of Summa Cum Laude and as the recipient of the Salutatorian Award for his class. His undergraduate education consisted of two years at MacEwan University studying Biology, Anatomy, Psychology, Sports Medicine and Nutrition and completing his Diploma at NAIT.
Dr. Devin was born and raised in Edmonton Alberta. He grew up participating in a variety of sports including competitive swimming, football, and ice hockey. Dr. Devin has maintained an interest in healthcare his whole life and started off his post undergraduate work experience as a Personal Trainer in 2011. If Dr. Devin is ever not in his office you can find him at a local CrossFit gym, hiking, snowboarding or reading a new book.
Dr. Devin’s interest in Chiropractic care began due a nagging back injury that couldn’t be solved for years. It wasn’t until a friend of his suggested trying Chiropractic care that all of his back pain was finally fixed. From that moment on he wanted to be able to provide that same level of care to any other individual that requires it to help create a happier, healthier and more mobile future. Dr. Devin brings with him a huge amount of genuine love and care in all that he’s does. As a masterful adjuster and continuing avid student of the craft, he is stoked in looking forward to serving the people of his hometown.
