Our name, Group23, was chosen to reflect our intrinsic philosophy about collaborative care. It comes from the 23 pairs of chromosomes that make up most human beings—the building blocks of human physiology that join together to forge something greater than the sum of its parts. Likewise, our practice is made up of an impressive group of professionals that form a remarkable combination—one that is able to provide a prized level of collaborative care. We are a group of compassionate people and are always open to exploring the best treatment options.

Before his formal medical education, Dr. Bobby worked as a trainer at the collegiate level with the UBC Thunderbirds. This experience provided him with invaluable insights and laid a strong foundation for his career in sports medicine.
In addition to his medical training, Dr. Bobby holds an undergraduate degree in Kinesiology and a graduate degree in Public Health from the University of British Columbia (UBC). After completing his medical degree at UBC, he furthered his postgraduate training at both the University of Calgary and the University of Ottawa.

Sports and competition have always played a central role in Dr. Bobby’s life. He has participated in various athletic pursuits, both individually and as part of a team, and has competed internationally in taekwondo, where he earned a black belt. Additionally, he has competed at the provincial level in basketball and continues to play for leisure. More recently, he has shifted his focus to training for a triathlon scheduled for next year.
Dr. Bobby’s personal experience with a prolonged concussion has been a significant factor in shaping his passion for sports medicine, a passion that continues to drive his career today.

Physiotherapy Lead/Certified Hand Therapist
BscPT, CHT
Stacey holds a Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy with Distinction from the University of Alberta (1993). After a few years of general orthopedic practice, she became more interested in hands and their complex healing pattern and so joined the Foothills Hospital Hand Clinic team. She obtained her designation as a Certified Hand Therapist in 1998 and was the second therapist in Calgary to do so. Stacey is still one of very few CHTs in private practice in Alberta and her practice is focused on treating only injuries to the wrist and hand. She sees all types of patients including athletic injuries, arthritis management, post-trauma, and repetitive strain injury. Stacey’s treatment plan may include splinting when appropriate (custom or off the shelf), and patient education and a home program are always the foundation of care.
Stacey is an active mentor to physiotherapists wanting to learn more about treating hands and has set up the Hand Therapy team here at Group23. She is also a resource of other therapists in the Calgary area and enjoys teaching. She has worked closely with many Calgary hand surgeons over the years and networks with other health professionals when necessary to provide the best care possible for each client.
Stacey is a native Calgarian and bilingual graduate of Western Canada High School. Her former competitive hockey player and figure skater are now flown from the nest, so she is transitioning from her life of being a busy rink mom!
**as of January 2025 Stacey Will is only taking new patients by direct referral (from surgeon or specialist). Please call our admin team to book or be placed on her waitlist – or please book with Mark, Keri-Ann, or Stephen! While not CHTs they have a lot of experience with all manner of wrist and hand injuries. We work as a team, and Stacey is there everyday so her expertise will be part of your care plan when needed.

Keith enjoys working with everyone from all walks of life, whether you are training for a desired goal, recovering from a trauma, or just need to chill out.
Being injured is one of the biggest challenges a person can endure in their life. The change is not just physical; it is also mental and emotional. He is a true believer in the multi-modality atmosphere where everyone has a specific role in that particular person’s road to recovery, from the doctors to the therapists to the individual.
People’s challenges are similar but also quite different; that is why Keith enjoys working with people to help them find their specific “recipe.”
