Dr. Victoria VanNederynen is the newest member to join Performance Health Center’s energetic and talented team.

 Dr. VanNederynen attended Ithaca College in upstate New York, where she completed her Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science.  Ithaca’s undergraduate studies exposed Dr. VanNederynen to a wide variety of health care professions, including chiropractic.  It was not until a snowboarding accident contributing to a low back injury in her senior year at Ithaca, that she realized the importance of chiropractic medicine and its benefits. 

 Upon graduating from Ithaca College, Dr. VanNederynen moved to Massachusetts to work as a Medical Assistant for Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates in Wellesley, spend time with her family and friends, and research the idea of attending Chiropractic College. 

 Dr. VanNederynen returned to upstate New York to continue her education as a doctor of chiropractic medicine.  At New York Chiropractic College, she was involved with various on campus clubs and organizations, intramural sports that included soccer and softball, and tri-athlete events.  She was consistently named to the Dean List and became a member of the Phi Chi Omega Honor Society.

 The last year of Dr. VanNederynen’s schooling consisted of her clinical internship at the Depew Health Center in Depew, NY.  She devoted much of her time to educating and treating patients at the Health Center, Tonowanda Salvation Army, Buffalo Veterans Hospital and at various sporting events.

 After a very demanding academic and clinical program, Dr. VanNederynen has advanced her technical skills and credentials by becoming certified in Active Release Techniques® (ART).  Dr. VanNederynen is a welcome addition to Performance Health Center’s enthusiastic team optimizing our patients’ health and ensuring a better quality of life.
