Meet the Valentus Clinics Team
Stephen Davis
The focus of my career has been to work with technology-focused inventors from a variety of industries to help find a market place for their creations. I became involved with medical technology when the thermal imaging business developed the first medical thermal imaging device. My business partner, Mary-Lynn Bellamy Willms, and I decided to move into the medical market place with a simple goal in mind: Help people get better using non-invasive technologies. Our business has quickly evolved from a small medical imaging clinic to the multi-disciplinary health centre. Our practitioners and support staff work as an integrated team to help our clients “Get Better.” We continue to expand by adding more doctors and more non-invasive technologies for the sole purpose of helping you get better.
Dr. Susan Simpson, Ph.D.
I am most grateful for the privilege and honour of being able to participate in the adventure of bringing Brainwave Optimization to Vancouver Island and to Canada four years ago. For a long time, I searched for a therapeutic system that would be really effective for my clients. Brainwave Optimization helps to change people’s lives and frees them to really live to their full potential. There may be no limit to how much we can change the human brain and human lives. In changing brains, we alleviate suffering, and this, in turn, will change the world. That to me is the most exciting and worthwhile game on the planet today. I am thrilled about how we are integrating all of our leading edge technologies at Valentus Clinics, giving people the best possible opportunity to achieve healthy and fulfilling lives.

My passion for communication and psychology gives me the tools I need to effectively promote our unique clinic and give our patients the best quality of care possible. I am so proud to be part of a team that delivers outstanding results to our patients.
Rebecca Olson
Years of experience studying mental health issues, and my passion for improving the human condition and expanding societal awareness about brain health drew me to working with Brainwave Optimization at Valentus. I am thrilled to be working with a technology that offers a real, non-invasive, gentle alternative to medication, shock therapy, and surgery for a wide-variety of conditions, and helps people of every age and background overcome physical, emotional, and psychological trauma that holds them back from a fulfilling life.
Jeffrey Hills
Wanting to find another modality that helped bridge the gap between western and eastern medicine, I was introduced to Brainwave Optimization, which strongly resonated with both my educational background and my desire to aid others in their journey to Balance and Harmony. Working with Brainwave Optimization, as well as in a fully integrated health care clinic, like Valentus, has been a dream that I am very excited to see realized.
Jadeen Davis
I am proud to be a part of a centre like Valentus which empowers people to take charge of their own health and wellness. I am excited about what thermography offers with its early detection and prevention. My goal is to raise general awareness about breast health, specifically encouraging young women to see the importance, and seriousness of monitoring their own breast health.
At Valentus, our approach to healing is unique in that our doctors and health professionals work with a number of state-of-the-art, non-invasive technologies that are designed to stimulate the body's innate ability to heal itself. We are achieving remarkable results!
