At the UBC Physical Therapy and Research Clinic (UBC PTRC), we offer physiotherapy services with an evidence-based approach, provided by a unique combination of clinicians and students.

The PTRC operates on a ‘student-led’ clinic model. Appointments will include or be run by students currently enrolled in the physical therapy program at UBC, under the supervision of a fully trained and licensed physiotherapist.

Conveniently located on the UBC campus, in the Friedman building, we serve all those who live, work, study or play on the UBC campus, as well as the broader Vancouver community.


You can reach us at (604) 827-6959 or email us at pt.clinic@ubc.ca
