Laura Patrick
Clinic Owner
Laura founded Kids Physio Group in 2006 in the most humble of surroundings. After 3 years working in the public system with school-aged kids, she recognized a need for all children to have access to trained pediatric physiotherapists in a clinic space designed just for them.
In the past few years, Laura has stepped back from clinical work. Although she still loves taking on the occasional baby motor milestone assessment and the opportunity it gives her to connect with parents, most of her efforts are dedicated to running Kids Physio Group and seeking out new partnerships and markets for us to expand into!
On the personal front, Laura loves outdoor adventures with her family in Deep Cove, keeping up her fitness, exploring new cities abroad, and cooking and eating delicious food!

Nikki Mallow
Physiotherapist & Community Engagement Manager
Kristyn has had a fulfilling career to date and is grateful for the broad range of physiotherapy experiences acquired in pediatrics. Prior to opening her clinic, she spent four years in pediatric Hematology Oncology at McMaster Children’s Hospital. Being a part of the difficult journey that these families endure in the face of cancer has been, by far, the most challenging but also some of the most meaningful work of her career. Kristyn couldn’t be more excited about providing services to the children and teens of Comox Valley and its surrounding communities!
