"One of my biggest challenges is balancing my two passions: my family and my patients." states Dr. Colin. "I am truly blessed to have the opportunity to care for so many people and I am surrounded by a great team including my wife and Chiropractor: Dr. Kim Pitblado."
 
"Chiropractic is not what I do....it's who I am. This has become a lifestyle that has created outrageous health for myself and my family" says Dr. Colin. "Myself, my wife Kim, and my four sons live a Chiropractic lifestyle full of health and vitality without the need for medication. This is my prayer for all the patients I see".

Dr. Kim Pitblado, D.C.

A warm "hello" from Dr. Kim S. Pitblado!
Dr. Kim grew up in Oakville, Ontario, but made Brantford her home over 15 years ago. Dr. Kim graduated from Queen's University before attending The Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College where she met her husband, Dr. Colin Elkin. Dr.'s Kim and Colin are the very proud parents of 4 beautiful Chiropractic boys, who keep them incredibly busy ... but they wouldn't want it any other way!

Together they built Elkin Natural Health Centre with the goal of improving the health of families in Brantford and the surrounding area.


Since becoming a Dr. of Chiropractic in 1993, Dr. Kim has had the thrill of watching many people reclaim their health and therefore, their lives.  She has immense respect for those who have goals of optimal health for themselves and their families, whether newborn or aged.

Dr. Lianne Coombe, D.C.

A little information about myself:
I was born in Brantford, Ontario and did most of my growing up in Simcoe, Ontario.  I have been blessed with an amazing family that I am very close to.  My main hobbies include running the trails with my dog (Austin), biking, walking, weight lifting, fishing, and enjoying the outdoors as much as possible.      

Wellness has always been a top priority in my life.  I learned very early on how important nutrition, exercise, and Chiropractic care are to one’s overall health and well being.  I have always been a very active person -- I competed in all sports in high school and attended university in Dallas Texas on a full athletic scholarship for track and field.  Upon returning from Texas, I attended the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College to become a Doctor of Chiropractic and also became a Certified Personal Trainer.  It has always been my goal to teach as many people as possible how to live their life to the fullest and reach optimal health.    

It is an absolute honor for me to be a member of Elkin Natural Health Centre.  The team here has such amazing positive energy and they are all focused on one thing:  “maximizing human potential”.  I’m excited to be working with the Brantford community and surrounding area on health and wellness and helping people achieve a level of health they never knew was possible.  I look forward to creating relationships with all my patients and helping them reach their health goals. I welcome all your referrals, including your friends and family members.
