Elaine was born and raised in England before she moved to Cochrane in 2002 with her family. Joining MVO in 2007 was a career change from her prior role with the Ministry of Defence. Since then, Elaine has been adding value to each patient visit with her expert and compassionate care. As one of our most experienced Pre-test Clinical Care Associates Elaine loves getting to know her patients and catching up with them at each visit. 


In her spare time Elaine enjoys walking her dog Rascal along the River path and painting rocks for her close friends and family.
