Crystal (Crissy) was born and raised in the Cowichan Valley. She and her family spent a number of years living in Southeastern BC, however the pull of the ocean brought them back to the Island, and she has called the Comox Valley home since 2018. Crissy has worked in nursing for over 20 years, and as a Nurse Practitioner since 2017. Her approach to healthcare is rooted in empathy and a patient-centered philosophy, believing in building strong, trusting relationships with patients and families to ensure they receive the best possible care tailored to their individual needs. When not at work, she can be found in the backyard with her plants and animals, or out on the beach combing for hidden treasures.

Brittany is thrilled to be a member of the Cumberland Village Health Care team. She is a fifth-generation Vancouver Islander originally from Ladysmith. In 2005, while Brittany was contemplating a career in finance, the first class of nurse practitioners graduated in British Columbia. During this time Brittany’s grandmother, an avid newspaper enthusiast, would routinely clip segments on nurse practitioners from the Times Colonist and place them on Brittany’s nightstand. Fast-forward to 2010, at which time Brittany graduated from Vancouver Island University with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing [with distinction] and aspirations to pursue a career as a family nurse practitioner. Brittany worked at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital in the surgical, rehabilitation, acute medicine, and pain programs while also instructing in the Faculty of Health and Human Services at Vancouver Island University. In 2020, Brittany graduated from the University of Northern British Columbia’s Master of Science in Nursing- Family Nurse Practitioner program. Brittany is a passionate and driven individual who enjoys primary care as it provides variation across the lifespan. Her special interests include technology in health care and chronic disease management. Brittany resides in the central island area with her partner and two golden retrievers. When not in-office, Brittany can be found exploring local hiking and mountain biking trails, tending to her flower and vegetable gardens, trying new local restaurants, attempting new culinary/baking creations, and catching up on current events with the weekend edition of the Globe and Mail.
