Dr. Tania Pringle, BPE, BA, DC, DACBR, FCCR(C)
Dr. Pringle graduated from CMCC in 2002 and was accepted into the radiology residency and began teaching. She graduated from the Fellowship program in 2005 and continued teaching at the college and began film reading privately. Dr. Pringle taught at CMCC for 17 years and was Department Chair for approximately 10 of those years. She left CMCC approximately 2 years ago, and continues her film reading practice while working in Quality Assurance at a WSIB orthopaedics clinic at a Toronto hospital. Dr. Pringle continues to teach through occasional CE talks and is currently the treasurer of the College of Chiropractic Radiologists Canada.

Dr. Varsha Kumar, BSc.(Hons), DC, DACBR, FCCR(C)
Dr. Varsha Kumar graduated from CMCC in 2011, upon which, she spent 2 years practicing in various multidisciplinary clinics in Toronto. She further perused her radiology residency in California where she spent many hours doing her placement at the Los Angeles County Hospital. She is currently a faculty radiologist, Program Coordinator of Diagnostic Imaging in Graduate Studies and Chair of Diagnostic Imaging in Undergraduate Studies at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC).  As much as she enjoys training the undergraduate chiropractic students in radiology and supervising and mentoring the graduate students in their graduate rounds and research, she likes to keep her chiropractic clinical skills active and thus is a frequent instructor in the Clinical Sciences department at CMCC as well. Dr. Kumar is a strong advocator for evidence-based medicine and best practices.
