Jennifer Cham, BA, BSN, ND

Dr. Jennifer Cham enters the practice with extensive medical experience. She earned her BA and BSN at the University of British Columbia, becoming a student member of Sigma Theta Tau International Nursing Honor Society. She then began work as a registered nurse in 1999 at Vancouver General Hospital. After several years in acute medicine, intensive care, and IV therapy, Dr. Jen received appointments as a clinical instructor with the UBC School of Nursing and Vancouver Coastal Health.

In 2005, she took an extended leave from teaching to pursue studies in naturopathic medicine. She found her passion in this field, thriving at the perpetual challenge of identifying and treating the underlying causes of illness naturally, and teaching patients how this perspective helps them experience optimal health.

Since graduation, Dr. Jen has pursued specialized training in modalities focused on treatment of pain and athletic injury. She is passionate about providing evidence-based treatments that support the body’s natural healing potential. At the Performax Health Group clinic in Burnaby, Dr. Jen works in collaboration with a full range of health care specialists to ensure that each patient receives a comprehensive, customized treatment plan to achieve their optimal health and performance goals.
