About Deidre
##Warm & Family-Centered
After earning her Bachelor of Science from the University of Manitoba in 1994, Dr. Deidre Valaquenta moved to Atlanta, Georgia to attend Life University, where she graduated Summa Cum Laude with her Doctor of Chiropractic degree in 1999. She successfully completed all four parts of the U.S. National Board of Chiropractic Examiners.
In 2022–2023, Dr. Deidre further expanded her clinical expertise by completing certification through the Functional Nutrition Alliance (USA), with advanced training in full-body systems and functional nutrition.
For the next 24 years, Dr. Deidre devoted herself to raising and homeschooling her four children while living in Bermuda, North Carolina, Florida, and Winnipeg. This season of life deepened her understanding of family health, childhood development, and the real-world challenges families face—perspectives she now brings into her practice every day.
In October 2022, Dr. Deidre returned to clinical practice in Canada, successfully passing all three parts of the Canadian Chiropractic Board Exams on her first attempt. She completed the Manitoba Chiropractic Jurisprudence Exam in December 2023 and is licensed to practice chiropractic in Manitoba.
Dr. Deidre spent a year working alongside the exceptional team at Mommy and Me Family Chiropractic in Winnipeg. This experience reinforced her passion for caring for pregnant mothers, infants, and children, and inspired her to continue advanced education in pediatric chiropractic care.
Her respect for chiropractic care is deeply personal. As a teenager, Dr. Deidre suffered from weekly migraines that significantly impacted her quality of life. Beginning chiropractic care at age 13 was life-changing, allowing her to experience lasting relief and fully engage in life and learning. This early experience continues to inspire her commitment to helping patients thrive.
Dr. Deidre believes in proactive, patient-centered care and is passionate about helping people feel and function a little better every day. She is dedicated to ongoing education to best serve the patients of Meadowood Family Chiropractic.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Deidre enjoys reading, baking, playing Scrabble, and adventuring with her four children. She also shares her home with six Siberian Huskies—two of whom can sit on command.
