Dr. Alisha Rai, is a South-African Canadian family physician who is deeply committed to advocacy for the disability community. This is fueled by her personal experience as a mother to a son with cerebral palsy. She co-founded a non-profit with her husband, Hope for Cerebral Palsy to fund quality private early interventional therapy for children with cerebral palsy. Additionally, she openly shares her experience with infertility and has the privilege of speaking at a TEDx event at the University of Mississippi. Her multifaceted background reflects a passion for healthcare, advocacy, and sharing impactful stories.


In this episode Dr. Jody and Dr. Alisha chat all about opportunities coming your way and the choices we make to take these opportunities to learn something new and love it or NOT and that is okay. Alisha tells us her incredible story that has so many layers, from joining the military in South Africa to raising a son with Cerebral Palsy. Being a special needs parent has shaped her to be the compassionate physician she is now with less judgment and more understanding.
