From Vision to Reality: The Dream Behind Our Journey

The Wellness Clinic was founded by a family doctor who believes that every part of your health and wellness is interconnected and can’t be properly managed in traditional health care silos.

At the wellness clinic, we offer a range of services designed to support your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. We believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.

We use a comprehensive, team-based approach to ensure you feel heard and supported.

Our Founder

One of our female family doctors, Dr. Alise Gaiser-Edwards

Alise Gaiser-Edwards, a proud mother of two, was born and raised in Brandon, Manitoba. Her curiosity and determination to dig deeper have shaped her career as a healthcare provider. While she strongly believes in evidence-based care, Alise’s passion lies in taking it a step further by educating and empowering her patients to make informed decisions, particularly in the areas of women’s health and mental health.

Alise holds a Bachelor of Science (Honours) from Brandon University and earned her Doctor of Medicine from the University of Manitoba. She completed her Family Medicine residency in Brandon, through the University of Manitoba's Family Medicine Residency Program, and now serves as a primary preceptor for both family medicine residents and medical students - something she takes great pride in.

Alise's personal experiences have played a significant role in her journey. Early in her career, she struggled with burnout and later with postpartum anxiety, which she eventually discovered was linked to undiagnosed ADHD. The lack of wrap-around services and holistic resources available during these challenges motivated her to co-found The Wellness Clinic - a space where patients could receive the comprehensive care and support they need.

Her vision centers around providing holistic, interdisciplinary care that addresses not only physical health but also the mental and emotional well-being of her patients.
