Teresa grew up in the Okanagan valley, though life took her away to other areas of Canada, Teresa returned to the Okanagan, to raise her children. Teresa is married with four children and many family pets.

Teresa comes from 10 years experience in direct patient care as a nurse, and transitioned to a clinic management role in early 2020. The Rutland Community Clinic’s values and core beliefs align with Teresa’s personal and family belief systems, which makes the Rutland Community Clinic an amazing fit for her. Teresa enjoys spending time with her family and friends locally, traveling to see family in Europe, and being in their large garden at home, feeling connected with the earth. Teresa is excited to see how the clinic grows, and the positive impacts the clinic will have on our community, patients and patients’ families.
