Meet Dr. Joe Suderman MSc.DC
Dr. Joe here, thanks for visiting my profile and learning how I may help you achieve your health goals. I recently moved to beautiful Nova Scotia after working as a chiropractor in Manitoba for 12 years and I am thrilled to get to know the community and people!
I grew up in Southern Manitoba on a potato farm with my parents and three brothers. When I was 17 years old, I moved to BC to play hockey. I learned a lot about the world of sports and sustained a number of injuries which piqued my interest in injury and pain management as well as prevention.
Education & Training
After completing a science degree in kinesiology I decided that being a chiropractor was the best career fit for my goals. I attended the University of Western States in Portland, Oregon due to its evidence-based approach and graduated with a Doctor of Chiropractic and a Masters in Sports Science. From this experience, I developed an interest in treating patients with post-concussion syndrome, other sports injuries, and various upper and lower extremity conditions. I have considerable experience treating people of all ages including infants and pregnant women. I give strong energy to my patients and I believe in a patient-centered treatment plan that involves collaboration with other healthcare professions.
Outside the Office
I have been married to my wife Angela for 14 wonderful years. We have three dogs and nine nieces and nephews whom we are very proud of. Outside of work I enjoy hiking, biking, golfing, gardening, birding, cooking (and eating) various cuisines. It is also important to me to contribute to a compassionate and inclusive community through volunteerism.
