Dr. Nicholas Bergen
BKin, DC
Dr. Nick Bergen was born and raised in Thorold, Ontario located within the Niagara Region. Although not professionally, he has been involved in various sports including soccer, hockey, volleyball, badminton, golf, and basketball. He has always had an interest in human anatomy and function, and graduated from Brock University with a Bachelors of Kinesiology (Honours). In his last two years of university, he had a placement and volunteer position at Power Cord and SeniorFit, the former being a wheelchair accessible program specific to individuals with spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke, Parkinson’s disease, and amputations, and the latter a fitness program designed for men and women 55 years of age and older. It was at this time he gained interest in the management of musculoskeletal conditions and decided chiropractic was the career path that would enable him to make a difference in the lives of others.
Nick completed the 4-year Doctor of Chiropractic program at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College graduating with honours. He has a strong interest in treating the general population and strives to improve the health of his patients to the best of his abilities using patient education, manual and soft tissue therapy, exercise prescription, diet intervention, low-level-laser therapy, clinical acupuncture, and interprofessional collaboration.
Although he hails from Southern Ontario, Dr. Nick is looking forward to embracing the Northern lifestyle and everything Sudbury has to offer. He enjoys the outdoors and is looking to get involved in local sports and activities. He is an avid movie goer and looks forward to discussing Silver Cities latest releases with you.

Dr. Kelly Hotta
BA, DC
Dr. Kelly Hotta is excited to be returning home to Sudbury to provide care to the community she grew up in. She was a competitive athlete growing up with involvement in x-country running, volleyball, and soccer before devoting her focus to swimming. Dr. Kelly was a part of provincial and national teams claiming multiple provincial and national titles. She continued her love for swimming at Western University where she served as the women’s team captain and assisted the women’s team to multiple championship titles and records. It was her involvement in swimming that led her to seek care from a chiropractor at age 15, and the rest was history!
Dr. Kelly attended Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College graduating Summa Cum Laude after completion of her Honors Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology at Western University. Dr. Kelly is also a certified Clinical Acupuncture provider.
Dr. Kelly is an evidence-based practitioner and highlights the importance of understanding her patients' health goals to create a plan that works for their lifestyle. Her two crucial components to care are to listen and educate. She believes these are two areas that are not emphasized enough in healthcare. Her treatment style is not only to alleviate pain, but to integrate proactive approaches to prevent recurrence and empower patients to become active participants in their health.
Dr. Kelly enjoys working with individuals in all walks of life and helping people feel better and move better. From her athletic background, she takes a special interest in swimmers and female athlete development.
Outside the clinic, she enjoys the gym, trying tasty local restaurants, spending time outdoors, video games, and frequenting Silver City. Dr. Kelly hopes to get involved with community outreach programs and to provide care to underserviced populations.
