Dr. Nakia Hassanali

MB ChB(UK), LMCC, MRCGP(UK), CCFP

Family Physician

I am a British born Family Doctor. I completed my medical degree (MB ChB) and family medicine residency in 2016 from the University of Birmingham. I then moved to Canada where I practiced in Sylvan Lake in 2017. Subsequently, I worked as a GP oncologist at the Cross Cancer institute between 2020-2021 which consolidated my interest in cancer care. During this time in Canada, I completed certification with the CFPC and became a member of the CPSA. I have a keen interest in dermatology and skin care and look forward to developing my practice and caring for a variety of patients and their needs.

I am also a mother of three wonderful children who continue to keep me busy. In my free time I enjoy skating, skiing, watching movies and spending quality time with my nearest and dearest.
