Dr. Rob Statton’s vision for a one-stop centre that provides Complete Whole Family Wellness has been an evolution of himself personally as well as professionally. 

For Dr. Rob, his first steps on this journey were in high school, where his aptitude for Sciences and his Mom’s profession as a nurse had him thinking of a career as a Medical Doctor.  After volunteering for three years at Wellesley Hospital his mind was made up; he knew he wanted to truly help people naturally.

While pursuing his Life Sciences Degree at Queen’s University, he began playing rugby; a full-contact sport which led to a full spectrum of back and neck injuries.  His Medical Doctor was prescribing  anti-inflammatories and pain relievers to treat his headaches and back pain, but the symptoms persisted and his condition never improved.  He finally went to see a Chiropractor and after his first treatment, he instantly felt a true difference.  Not only did he feel as if the problems had been corrected, his performance on the rugby pitch improved; it was then and there that he realized becoming a Chiropractor would allow him to achieve his goal of helping others naturally.

It was in Dr. Rob’s first practice at Premier Health Club that he saw the potential for combining a centre for health and fitness.  He began adding Massage Therapy and eventually Physiotherapy to the services offered but found that rather than the two areas (health & fitness) working cohesively to offer the best services to the clients, they were often competing.

He took his idea of integrating health and fitness and The Barrie Core Wellness Centre was born.  Today, clients of the Barrie Core Wellness Centre receive a full spectrum of care from acute injury and rehabilitation to fitness enhancement and wellness promotion, all under one roof.

Dr. Rob’s passion for truly helping others is evident in his daily treatment schedule and interaction with his clients.  He leads his team with integrity and believes in what Core stands for and the potential for the future.  It is this passion and integrity that motivates his team and creates the warm and inviting atmosphere of “family” for both clients and staff.

Partnering with Right Step Solutions has enabled Dr. Rob to more effectively utilize his team.  As he puts it, “the vision can be accomplished more easily with a team effort, using more minds and hearts for the same goals.”
