Dr. Priscilla Kerr

In 2005, Dr. Kerr expanded her knowledge by training in Taiwan, where she studied under some of the best TCM professors from Taipei and Beijing. During this 5 years residency, she gained certifications in Pain Management and Fertility TCM, and she later applied these skills while working with several private and public fertility clinics in São Paulo, Brazil.

Her leadership in the field extends beyond her clinical work. Dr. Kerr served as the spokesperson and External Relations Board Director for the CMAAC and the Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture Association of Manitoba (CMAAC) for 15 years. She played a pivotal role in advocating for TCM practitioners during the COVID-19 pandemic, successfully lobbying the Health Minister and government officials to have acupuncture recognized as an essential service. Her efforts allowed practitioners to reopen safely, providing guidance on health and safety protocols to all members in Manitoba since 2019.

For over a decade, Dr. Kerr has volunteered to represent and defend the rights of thousands of TCM practitioners across Canada, particularly in Manitoba. Her dream of having acupuncture officially recognized as a healthcare profession in Canada has been a driving force in her career.

In pursuit of this dream, Dr. Kerr founded Priscilla Kerr Wellness Ltd., a holistic wellness center that opened its doors on April 1, 2025. The wellness center offers a wide range of holistic care services, helping individuals achieve better health and balance in their lives.

Although Dr. Kerr is not licensed as a physician in Manitoba or Canada, she is a licensed TCM doctor and registered acupuncturist. For 16 years, she worked at Manitoba Clinic before transitioning for 2 years at the Acupuncture College of Manitoba until she had a chance to create her own space, a wellness center in the Whyte Ridge area of Waverly West District at 103 Scurfield Boulevard, Unit A, offering a welcoming environment for those seeking healing and holistic care.

Dr. Kerr is committed to empowering others to take control of their health and well-being, integrating the best of Western and Eastern medicine to offer comprehensive, patient-centered care.
