Adam has attained the industries most advanced credentials and experience in the field of orthopaedics. He is deeply committed to making Cornerstone stand out as a leader in clinical excellence. He is passionate about supporting our staff to help them develop as clinicians. Adam is a lecturer and clinical instructor for the esteemed Masters of Advanced Healthcare Practice program at Western University where he teaches clinical reasoning skills and diagnostics. As an advanced practice physiotherapist Adam has worked alongside Toronto’s top spine surgeons and has supported thousands of patients to find the care they need.
Adam is also a clinical research coordinator with the University health Network investigating how physiotherapy can help patients suffering from long COVID-19 symptoms. He is leading an initiative to develop a cutting edge program at Cornerstone to help people suffering from long COVID-19.
In 2018 Adam suffered a significant ski accident that fractured and dislocated bones and joints in three of his four limbs. Thousands of hours of recovery have helped him to fully understand what physiotherapy is like from the patient’s perspective. He uses this knowledge to improve our programs at Cornerstone, and to mentor clinicians to fully understand the recovery process from the patients perspective.
Adam grew up in Whitby, Ontario where athletics and fitness were central to his life. He was a competitive ski racer and university varsity rugby player. He now lives in Oakville with his wife and daughter. Despite the accident mentioned earlier Adam has an unnatural love of skiing and all things related to physical fitness. When speaking to him, it is best to avoid these topics if you have limited time.

What Adam's patients say...
I have seen Adam at Cornerstone Physiotherapy for help with two challenging injuries. As an orthopaedic surgeon, I have the opportunity to work with many physiotherapists. When the time came for me to be a patient, I knew that Adam was who I wanted to work with. His comprehensive approach to assessment and the construction of a treatment program is outstanding. I have had nothing but excellent interactions with the staff at his facility. I would, and do, recommend Cornerstone Physiotherapy to anyone in the need of their professional services.
What Adam's patients say...
As an orthopaedic surgeon, I trusted Adam Brown and his team when I tore my ACL. Adam was very accommodating and worked around my hectic work schedule. His professional demeanour, knowledge and understanding of injury and rehabilitation were a driving force for my recovery. I have since been able to return to playing recreational basketball and I would highly recommend Cornerstone Physiotherapy to anyone with a musculoskeletal injury!
What Adam's patients say...
I’ve known Adam for many years, both as my own physiotherapist as well as the physiotherapist for many of my patients. As a physician, I have had a lot of experience working with physiotherapists over the past two decades in practice. I have not worked with any who were as knowledgeable or skilled as Adam. The team working at Cornerstone is highly professional, friendly and knowledgeable. You are in good hands if you are a client here.

Best physio in Toronto. I have been seeing Adam for years and wouldn’t consider anyone else!
