The Ascent Story

Proudly upholding a 100 year history of providing manual healthcare to Calgarians.

Why Ascent?

Upholding a Century-old Legacy

The clinic story goes all the way back to 1918 as it was one of the first chiropractic clinics in Alberta. Although the ownership, name and location has changed a few times over the past one hundred years, the doors have never closed. The clinic’s  vision has also evolved over the years to include the multidisciplinary approach we hold now.

When the current owners, and husband and wife duo, Dr. Scott and Ricki Fisher assumed ownership in 2013 they felt deeply proud to be inheriting the clinic’s century-long legacy in Calgary, and their vision has been to build on what has been accomplished and continue moving the clinic in the pursuit of excellence. While a lot has changed in our hundred year history there are some constant elements, especially the focus on patient-centered care and the unwavering dedication to providing evidence-based and personalized patient care. 

Beyond the clinic walls, we love giving back to our local and global communities by hosting online movement classes, setting up pop-up clinics at local events and sponsoring tournaments as well as participating on the medical teams of international sporting events and volunteering with global health initiatives overseas.
