The word doctor means “teacher”. With that knowledge, Dr. Kelner ND strives to teach people how to thrive and evolve in their Body and Mind so they can most effectively reach their potential. She has an area of focus that includes women’s health, paediatric wellness, Lyme Disease and mental health. Dr. Kelner ND believes every person has personalised needs and must therefore be treated in his/her own unique way. This belief fuels her approach of individualising each patient’s therapeutic plan to correctly reflect each patient’s presenting health concerns and challenges.
