David Ridgewell
Bio:
i have been practicing as a registered physiotherapy since October 2014. I completed my Masters of Physical Therapy at UBC and began my career working in private practice. I worked in Vancouver (City Sports and Physiotherapy) for 5 years before moving to Calgary with my wife. I continued to work in private practice at Marda Physiotherapy before transitioning to public practice at Rockyview General Hospital (RGH) in June 2019. Since transitioning to RGH I have worked in the ICU (during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic), General medicine units, and am currently working as a Wound Care Physiotherapist.
My passion for physiotherapy has led me to work with amazing therapists in different settings. I want to help my community through quality, evidence based physiotherapy and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve Calgary and Alberta.
I also started my own mobile physiotherapy company (Ridge Wellness) in 2021, but have since had to scale back this service as I work full time at RGH and have a young family.
I enjoy being as active as possible, cycling, running, weightlifting as well as playing beach volleyball and soccer. Hiking and crossing country skiing are my seasonal activities that I enjoy doing with friends and family.
