Nancy James – Office Manager
Nancy has been an integral member of our team for over 17 years! Since graduating from Fanshaw College, and before working with us at SCWC, Nancy had primarily worked in geriatrics and with children with special needs. Her three grown children are all professionals working and living in Stratford, and she enjoys being the best grandmother to her 5 little grandkids. After spending many years in hockey arenas and ball diamonds, you can now find her working out at the gym, cycling, and keeping active in the community. With her infectious laugh and warm personality, Nancy has always been a perfect fit as part of the Stratford Chiropractic & Wellness Centre team. She revels in meeting and helping people and is always learning new information pertaining to improved health and well-being. She believes that everyone needs balance in their lives and chiropractic care is one of the best ways of attaining stress free living! “Give away your smile, a million times a day!”
Bailey Bechthold – Chiropractic Health Assistant
Bailey is always a ray of sunshine at the front desk! She has a true love of people, and a caring and empathetic nature – but don’t let her small stature and quiet nature fool you – she has a blackbelt in karate and is a strong soul!
Bailey grew up in the Waterloo area, but is loving being a part of the Stratford community in our office. She has work experience with Children’s Services and Carepartners, and her organization and communication skills with all ages are top notch!
Bailey loves spending time with her boyfriend, camping, hiking, and prepping nutritious meals for their busy lifestyle!
Bailey is a proud new mama to her sweet son Hudson.
Angela Malmo – Chiropractic Health Assistant
Ang has lived in Stratford for most of her life, having attended grade school and high school here, and raising her (now adult) 3 children and 2 step-children with her husband Bill. She loves our little city of Stratford! She enjoys the theatre, golf, and going on long walks with her two dogs Cooper and Bubba, who bring her so much joy!
Ang’s previous career was in service and banking, which she retired from in 2021. She feels very fortunate and happy to have found her “dream job” (she tells us all the time!) here at Stratford Chiropractic & Wellness Centre! She feels privileged to work with such an incredible group of professionals and staff, and feels that our mission here is second to none! We love Ang’s commitment to outstanding service and her experience in customer service is top notch!
