Nell Chaston

Administration · Referrals & Sports Medicine Coordinator

I was born and raised in the coastal town of Phillip Island, Australia. I completed a Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne, majoring in neurophysiology, while working with a concussion research team at the Royal Children’s Hospital.

In 2023, I moved to Whistler and joined Whistler Blackcomb’s adaptive alpine program as a ski coach. Through this role, I’ve had the privilege of working with athletes from the Italian, Ukrainian, and Canadian Invictus Games and para-ski teams.

While skiing remains one of my greatest passions, my role at Creekside Health has allowed me to combine my love for the medical field with my love for the mountains.

  • Adventures & what book I’m reading!

  • On a mountain — hiking, biking, skiing or touring!

  • Acupuncture & RMT appointments — such a treat for my brain and body.

  • Everyone loves spending time outdoors!

  • Without a doubt, our team!

  • Most of my job is behind the scenes — sending referrals & requisitions, contacting specialist clinics, organizing samples & swabs, setting up procedures, and managing the sports medicine referrals and bookings.

  • A kind, caring and very supportive team and management group. Coffee helps too!
