In his free time, he enjoys anything that involves sports. He feels that the best way to treat patients is to continually listen to them throughout their time with you. “We have a unique position to be able to spend so much time with our patients. We need to use this time to actively attend to their needs in any way that best fits the patient.” Andre entered PT because his grandmother had a brain tumor and, during her rehabilitation, she received home health services from a PT. He was able to see the progress she was able to make from the time she came home to her discharge and he knew then that PT was what he wanted to do.

Fun Fact: Andre has lived on 3 continents in his life.
