Meet the Doctors at Beacon Hill Chiropractic and Massage
Michael Schmolke DC, Chiropractor
I wanted to have a career in healthcare, to help people perform at their best without the use of drugs or surgery. Chiropractic was the career to help me best fulfill that goal.
Dr. Michael Schmolke has been a well-respected chiropractor, health educator and motivational speaker in Northwest Calgary for over twenty years. His study of health sciences began at the University of Saskatchewan with a major in anatomy. During that time, he was a running back with the U of S Huskies football team which participated in 2 CIAU Vanier Cup Championship games.
Sherra Sanders BSc, DC, Chiropractor
I love having a holistic family practice and I aim to always enthusiastically share what I know and learn with all of my patients.
Dr. Sherra’s passion for chiropractic has greatly increased since becoming part of the team at Beacon Hill Chiropractic and Massage. “I have had the pleasure of building a family-focused wellness practice that affords me the opportunity to witness how chiropractic care can benefit people of all ages.
Mehrdad Ghaliai DC, Chiropractor
I started looking into the world of natural healing and became fascinated with the science of chiropractic and decided to pursue this new path in my life.
Dr. Mehrdad graduated from York University in Toronto in 1996 with an Honours degree in Computer Science. Over the years, he managed a successful software company in Toronto. Despite being a professional soccer player, a non-smoker and being overall conscious about healthy living, Dr. Mehrdad was diagnosed with cancer. He endured a 10-month battle with this disease.
“This life-changing experience gave me a new mission to not only seek new ways to regain and maintain optimum health, but also to help others in achieving the same goal.”
Dr. Mikayla Schmolke, BKin, MSc Clinical Neuroscience, DC, Chiropractor
Chiropractic has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a chiropractic family shaped not only the career I chose, but how I think about health, too.
For Dr. Mikayla, becoming a chiropractor wasn’t the result of one defining moment. It always felt like something she was naturally drawn toward.
Raised in a chiropractic family, she grew up with health, movement, and staying active woven into everyday life. Today, she’s proud to have come full circle, working alongside her family and within a great team of health professionals at Beacon Hill Chiropractic and Massage.

Dr. Noreen Samra, DTCM
I love that acupuncture and TCM allow care to be tailored to each person. To me, this is the essence of health care—an individualized approach that encourages harmony, balance, and overall well-being.
Every treatment plan Dr. Noreen builds starts with the person in front of her. Depending on what a patient needs, she draws on acupuncture, gua sha, cupping, herbal formulas, and lifestyle recommendations to create an individualized treatment plan based on each patient’s needs.
