Navjot Gill-Chawla

I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Aging, Health and Wellbeing at the University of Waterloo. My research focuses on exploring the experience of people living with dementia and their care partners in the South Asian community and the importance of culturally inclusive care for dementia.

I completed a Master of Science degree in Physical Therapy from Western University in the Health and Rehabilitation Sciences program. My thesis explored the health-seeking behaviour of community-dwelling older adults related to dimensions of wellness and the implications of health-seeking behaviour for ageing-in-place.
