Andrew graduated from the School of Medical Rehabilitation - Physical Therapy of the Department of Medicine at the University of Manitoba. Upon graduation, he immediately began practicing in private practice in Barrie, Ontario. In January of 2009, Andrew relocated to Ottawa and started with Back On Track Physiotherapy. Through his experience in private practice, Andrew has done extensive work with patients with work place, motor vehicle, athletic and general lifestyle injuries. Through these avenues Andrew has provided rehabilitation for all ages and activity levels including pre-school children, retirees, weekend warriors and even OHL and professional hockey players.

Highlights outside of the clinic setting have included; working with the Canadian Professional Golf Association's (CPGA) stop in Winnipeg, treating the professional golfer's pre and post-round. Working with high-school hockey and football players and coaching high-school badminton and basketball.

Andrew treats with a very hands-on manual approach and as such, post-grad work has been aimed at progressing those skills. Courses taken include manual courses through the orthopaedic division of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association, myofascial release, strain-counterstrain, Mulligan/mobilization with movement, neural mobility, muscle energy, and acupuncture.

Andrew also has a keen interest in exercise prescription and can develop sport specific routines drawing from a history playing multiple sports such as golf, hockey, basketball, badminton, soccer, tennis, and long distance running.
