Meet the Office Team at Back & Body Wellness Centre

Manny Pannu, Clinic Manager

I was born and raised in India. Since my childhood I had a keen interest in learning about business and marketing. I have a Masters in History alongside with a certification as a Microsoft Certified System Engineer (MCSE). I came to Canada in 2003. During my early years in Canada, I had to go through struggles in finding the right job that fits my education level.

While working these different jobs I also learned how to manage teams, how to organize work flow, learned how to market companies, how to affectively use social media in business. I attended numerous seminars and business coaching classes to gain more knowledge on how to become a proficient business manager.

I became part of Back & Body Wellness Centre in 2013 as a part time manager while working full time as a Real Estate Agent. In 2017, I transformed the clinic into a multi-disciplinary clinic.

Me and my wife (Dr. Jasminder Pannu) have two small children, and we keep ourselves busy with outdoor activities and family trips. We enjoy travelling to the Caribbean, Hawaii, New York and exploring local islands in our beautiful British Columbia.

Jaspreet Bagri, Front Desk Manager

My name is Jaspreet Bagri. I was born and raised in India. I am a nurse by profession. Growing up, I could never picture myself doing anything but becoming a nurse. From a family with no medical background, I was the first one to go into the health care field. I did my Bachelors of Science in Nursing from India and upgraded here in Canada. During my study in Canada, I gained excellent Canadian RN experience in my practicum placement.

I later joined a vet clinic and worked as an office assistant and assistant manager for over 2 years. I joined Back & Body Wellness Centre and enjoy working with different practitioners in a multidisciplinary clinic. Working here gives me an opportunity to connect with patients and also allows me to help them in many ways.

I love what I do and I wish to continue doing it for many more years to come.

Manjot Kaur, Medical Office Assistant

Hello, my name is Manjot Kaur. I was born and raised in India. I graduated with a diploma in Health Sciences from Langara College, Vancouver. As a long-term goal, I am planning to pursue studies in Counseling Psychology one day.

It really interests me how one’s physical, emotional and mental health plays a role in improving their sense of well-being. When I came to know about the stigma and discrimination associated with mental health and illness, I started thinking about learning more about this field of study. This is when I realized that many people are unwilling to seek help due to fear of what others may think. Thus, I want to explore this area of research specifically because I have always felt an urge to help people and make them feel comfortable with talking about anything that makes a difference in their overall well-being.

Working at Back & Body Wellness Centre is a great opportunity to help others and is one step closer to reaching my goal. I am really excited about working here and am looking forward to helping patients in the best possible way.

Working in health care sector is a honour for me as it provides me with great opportunities to help people in various ways and to expand my knowledge and capabilities. Back in India, I worked as a nurse which was a great experience and currently, I am working as a medical office assistant in this clinic.

Back & Body Wellness Centre has given me this opportunity to gain experience by working with different practitioners and dealing with different people on daily basis. I love working here as it brings me positive energy and makes me connected with my goals.

Arshdeep Kaur, Medical Office Assistant

Hi, I am Arshdeep Kaur. I was born and raised in the Philippines. I am currently in my second year of studies towards a Bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences.

I have always been interested in the sciences and passionate about the desire to help people, so it became obvious to me that a career in the medical field would be the perfect fit between my passion and interest. Being able to work as a medical office assistant in Body and Back Wellness Center is an opportunity that I am very grateful for, since not only do I get to make a difference in people’s lives daily, but also learn from the experiences and knowledge of the different practitioners.

I believe that being a MOA will help me enhance my abilities to better serve patients with the utmost level of care. It is also a rewarding experience that has helped me practice compassion and empathy in my daily life.

I am excited to continuously learn and improve my customer service and administrative skills with the help of our wonderful team at the clinic, so that we may collectively lead our patients to achieving wellness in all aspects of their lives.
