Biography
Dr. David Tam is an evidence-based chiropractor based out of Toronto that focuses on assessment and patient-centered care. His interest in healthcare began after sustaining a number of injuries as a student-athlete. Dr. David went on to pursue an Honours Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology with a minor in Gerontology at the University of Waterloo. He then furthered his education at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College where he obtained his Doctor of Chiropractic degree. During his undergraduate studies, Dr. David provided on-field care as a student therapist for the University of Waterloo Men’s Volleyball and Varsity Badminton teams. As a personal trainer and former paddler for the University of Waterloo’s Dragon Boat Club, he went on to co-lead dryland strength and conditioning practices. He has worked alongside his co-operative education employers, providing ergonomic insights and recommendations for desk workers. Dr. David has a soft spot when working with the elderly: providing musculoskeletal care at South Riverdale Community Health Centre, organizing programs at Carefirst Seniors’ Adult Day Program, and leading virtual exercises classes for seniors during the pandemic. When Dr. David is not in the clinic, you can find him on the badminton/volleyball courts, hiking a trail, or documenting his adventures through photography.
