Jamie Chan
Office Manager
Jamie Chan

Meet Jamie, our office manager. Phoenix Rising caught her attention as it was something that was different and new that she wasn’t familiar with. She wanted to learn more in the animal care industry to be able to help animals that are would benefit from more of a holistic approach.

With many years of office management, Jamie has brought over a strong ability to manage office functions and keep the clinic running. She is also detail oriented when it comes to making sure the team is on track.

Outside of the clinic, she spends most of her time with her dog, Bobo, and golfing.

Mackenzie Friesen
Certified Holistic Carnivore Nutritionist
Mackenzie Friesen

I’m so grateful to be a part of the Phoenix Rising team. I’ve always been an animal lover and it’s such a blessing to be surrounded by our furry patients everyday.

My dog, Dasher, was a patient at Phoenix Rising before I started working at the clinic. I was inspired to learn more when I experienced how proper nutrition has changed his life for the better. I am now a Certified Canine Nutritionist with Angel’s Animals and continuing my education with Companion Animal Science Institute – Canine Nutrition program.

In the office you can find me assisting Dr. Raj and Dr. Farah with creating custom meal plans for our patients. You can also find me helping with blood draws, titer tests and placing IV catheters for MAHT treatments.

Dr. Radica Raj
DVM
Dr. Radica Raj

Dr. Radica Raj started practice as a Veterinarian in general practice but soon embarked on a more fast-paced career in Veterinary Emergency Medicine and Critical Care in Ontario.

Within a year of practice in this field she was inspired to start her own emergency facility and subsequently opened a second general practice. While this path provided the stimulus and the challenges she had yearned for, she soon realized that there had to be a better quality of life for terminally-ill patients, for the geriatric patients disabled by osteoarthritis and for the paralyzed patients that could not walk.

Determined to explore these avenues and find answers, she successfully completed her post-graduate diploma in Veterinary Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCVM) with the Chi Institute in Florida. She then completed a program in Animal Chiropractic at Options for Animals in Kansas and obtained an animal chiropractic certification from the International Veterinary Chiropractic Association (IVCA).

She then started Phoenix Rising Integrative Veterinary Care thereby opening the door to an integrative veterinary clinic on Vancouver Island. She ensured that her services were integrative by performing surgery on her patients through another clinic even as she practised wholistic medicine.

Dr. Radica Raj has experience handling emergencies, surgical and internal medicine cases as well as chiropractic, acupuncture, Chinese Medicine and Regenerative medicine i.e. PRP, prolotherapy, etc. On account of this, you will find that she is more than willing to collaborate with your family veterinarian and specialists involved in dealing with your pet’s health.

Her scope of practice includes Internal medicine, Surgery, Emergency, Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine and Regenerative Medicine.

She is now also certified in Canine Rehabilitation.
