Tony is a great guy who wants to make a big difference in the physiotherapy space, and this episode has great insights for any new health care professionals who plan on opening their own independent clinic or healthcare business!

 

Bio: Tony Li received his Master’s of Physical Therapy degree from Western University. Prior to that, he graduated from McMaster University with an Honours Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. His desire to become a physiotherapist was inspired by his participation in high-level soccer throughout his youth. From experiences with the provincial, national, and university levels, he developed an understanding for the importance of being a role model within the community. He believes that understanding the individuality of each person and the context of their lives is crucial to how we, as physiotherapists, address health, wellness, and rehabilitation.
