From the Canadian Armed Forces to Your Recovery

Having completed my Honours Bachelor of Science with Specialization in Human Kinetics at the University of Ottawa, I pursued to complete a Master of Science in Physical Therapy at the University of Toronto. I fulfilled 9 years of service and deployments with the Canadian Armed Forces as a Medic, where I qualified in being an International Trauma Life Support (ITLS) instructor, a chosen participant in The Prince’s Operation Entrepreneur Business Camp, Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE) medical and tactical response, and a host of leadership training.

As my focus shifted to developing my Physiotherapy career, I expanded my knowledge base through qualifications in Acupuncture, Dry Needling, and NeuroKinetic Therapy, and I continue to participate in annual conferences on a national and global scale.

My peer-reviewed research on low-level laser therapy, published in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, helps guide how I use laser treatments to speed up healing and reduce pain for my patients — read the full study here.

Why I Do What I Do

Having suffered a variety of injuries, from minor sprains and strains to rotator cuff impingement and labrum tears that require surgery, I understand what it feels like to be unable to participate in the sport or activity you love and how challenging it is to go through a lengthy rehab process.

This allows me to relate to athletes and people who come to our clinic to heal and return to their normal lives. I bring my ‘no-nonsense, do what you have to do’ mindset from the military, my work ethic and diligence from athletics, and my positive energy to all my treatment sessions, as I genuinely believe that anything can be accomplished with the right attitude and dedication.

On your first visit

I believe in treating the person, not just masking your pain. In our first session, expect us to go deep into your medical history, previous injuries, and lifestyle factors that influence your overall health — including eating habits, sleep hygiene, stress management, nutrition, and exercise routines — before moving on to the physical assessment.

The physical assessment will cover your whole body, including the joints and regions connected to your area of concern, because the body works as one connected system.

That is why collaboration with other healthcare practitioners is essential. Certain disciplines and techniques are better suited to specific diagnoses, and I am a firm believer in a multidisciplinary approach to treatment — because no single practitioner can do it all alone.

Why our clinic is different

This is what I love most about the people at Kent Chiro-Med. We all believe in the values of hard work, honesty, teamwork, staying humble, and being the absolute best at what we do. We all aim to give 100% every day, no excuses, or shortcuts and want to leave an impact on those we work with.

We are here to make a difference in people’s lives, not to make a quick buck or chase fame.  

Life Outside the Clinic

Outside the clinic, I am just as active as I encourage my patients to be. I play almost any sport imaginable, love spending time outdoors, and enjoy every moment with my friends, family, and two dogs.

I was born and raised in Quebec’s Eastern Townships, so Ottawa is relatively new to me — but I already love it here. Joining the Kent Chiro-Med team has given me the chance to be part of a community I genuinely care about, and that matters to me every single day.

Absolutely amazing! I’m so glad that I found a place where I felt comfortable and Ramy does excellent work! This was my first time going to see a chiropractor so I was very nervous and skeptics, but they did not disappoint one bit! Excellent customer service and everyone is very friendly and helpful.

I was suffering from severe pain around my neck and down to my back for a year, which was caused by hard physical work and incorrect lifestyle. The pain had limited my activities considerably. Prior to me, my family had a very satisfactory experience with the Clinic, and were especially talking about Dr. Maryam Hassanzadeh's expertise, experience, and devotion to ... Read on Google

As an athlete, I've been seeing Ghaith for a hip impingement injury that was restricting me from sports/workouts. Ghaith helped me get back in the action! Its always a pleasure seeing him, as he's friendly & enthusiastic, he genuinely enjoys explaining the mechanics of the injury and discussing the big picture theory (which I love as a bit of a nerd & athlete). Thanks Ghaith & Kent Chiro-Med! Read on Google
