An experienced Naturopathic Doctor and owner of the Waterdown Clinic, Dr Teri Jaklin ND is an enthusiastic student of the healing power of nature, and a person’s ability to access their own healing potential. While her personal experience, clinical and academic work have culminated in a special interest in the treatment and management of Multiple Sclerosis, Women’s Health, and Complex Chronic Illness, she remains a dedicated general practitioner who enjoys applying naturopathic philosophy and care to people with every nature of health concern.

With a diagnosis of her own, Teri has been active in the MS community since the mid 80’s. Today she coaches individuals and groups on living well with MS and, individually, treats people with MS to reduce the impact of the disease on their lives.

Prior to retraining as an ND, Teri spent 15 years in the frantic world of corporate public relations where she learned first-hand the challenges that corporate life brings to maintaining a balanced life.

Teri is a proliferative writer and has contributed to numerous journals and expert blogs. As an accomplished speaker, she uses humor and interaction to provoke thought and stimulate open discussion. Each session is designed to engage audiences and empower individuals to make choices that positively impact the quality of their lives every day. Teri’s speaking engagements include keynote addresses, corporate seminars, and healthcare symposiums.

Teri has been recognized by her peers in the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors as new practitioner of the year (2002) and is the recipient of an OAND leadership award (2011). Dr Jaklin ND’s clinic website address is: www.waterdownclinic.com.
