Dr. Calvin was born in Stettler, AB and raised in Abbotsford, B.C. His passion for chiropractic began at a young age, having been a chiropractic patient since he was six weeks old. As a teenager, Dr. Calvin played competitive hockey and rugby, and the chiropractic treatments he received over the years helped him to quickly recover from injuries, and give him a more competitive edge during practices and games. In his spare time, Dr. Calvin enjoys spending time at the lake, cooking, golfing and hiking with his wife Dr. Chelsea, and their golden retriever Jasper.

After graduating from high school in Abbotsford, B.C, Dr. Calvin spent three years at the University of Alberta studying developmental biology and physiology. His passion for chiropractic then led him to Portland, Oregon where he studied at the University of Western States and attained his Bachelor of Science, Masters in Exercise and Sport Science, and Doctorate of Chiropractic. Upon graduation, Dr. Calvin moved to Red Deer, AB, where he has been practicing for the duration of his career, and opened his own clinic in 2016, treating a rural community a few hours east of Red Deer.

Although Dr. Calvin enjoys working with a wide variety of patients and conditions, working with high school athletes is his passion. Dr. Calvin believes in using a variety of techniques within treatments, such as diversified adjusting, instrument-assisted soft tissue manipulation, pin and stretch, taping, and rehabilitation exercises. He is determined to continue expanding his knowledge base and techniques through seminars and workshops in order to provide the best quality of care for his patients.
