We have a new student here at the clinic! Please give a warm welcome to Nick!

What year of school?
First year

Where were your placements before here?
I completed my first placement in the acute stroke rehab and advanced care for the elderly unit at St. Clare’s Mercy in St John’s Newfoundland.

What made you want to go into physio?
I’ve always been interested in the human body, athletic performance, and medicine. Physiotherapy felt like a good transition to continue my education in these fields after completing my undergraduate degree in kinesiology.

What field of interest would you like to pursue after graduation?
After graduating I’d like to pursue a career in sports physiotherapy or sports medicine.

What are your goals for after graduation?
I’m planning to complete my PCE and work in orthopaedics while applying to medical schools with hopes of eventually pursuing a career in sports medicine.

Fun fact!
I’ve trained and competed in track and field since grade four and currently training to compete as a pole vaulter!
