Ilona Hale - President
Ilona and her husband, Dave and two teenage boys, Emerson and Oliver, have been enjoying all that Kimberley has to offer in its beautiful mountains and trails for about 20 years. As a family doctor, Ilona believes that helping people stay healthy through more physical activity and healthier eating just makes a lot of sense!

Yvonne Keyzer - Director
Yvonne and her husband Frank moved to Kimberley 23 years ago and have raised their three children here. She was privileged to have a Family Practice for many years, but in the past few has shifted her focus to Sports Medicine at Creekside, where she hopes to improve the health and activity of young and old alike. When not working, she can most often be found on the nordic ski trails in the winter, and in the Nature Park or on her paddle board on one of our local bodies of water in the summer, and she is a firm believer that Exercise is Medicine!
