Connor Willis, MScPT, BScKin
Physiotherapist, Clinic Director

Connor completed his Masters of Physiotherapy at McMaster University and has been practicing physiotherapy at Arbutus for five years. Connor is originally from Vancouver Island and grew up immersed in athletics and the outdoors in the Comox Valley. Connor has been heavily involved in soccer, football, and rugby.

Connor is certified as a Vestibular Therapist. He enjoys treating and supporting individuals with vertigo, dizziness, imbalance, motion sensitivity and post concussion. Connor is also certified in IMS/dry needling.

Connor is passionate about working alongside his patients to help them maximize their function and attain their goals. His treatment style includes a blend of manual therapy, IMS/Dry needling, emphasizing education to help patients understand the origin of their injury, and providing targeted exercises to help the origin of the injury and reduce the risk of reinjury. He is always advancing his manual therapy skills through further education, mentorship, and researching evidence-based strategies to support patients with a variety of injuries and conditions.

Through his youth Connor was heavily involved in soccer, football, and rugby representing Canada in the U18 World Rugby Championships in England. Various injuries in his rugby career had him working closely with physiotherapists to get back on the field which sparked his interest in physiotherapy.

When Connor is not treating patients and singing along to one of his infamous playlists, he also acts as Clinic Director at Arbutus where he oversees clinic operations and provides support to other practitioners on the clinical team. 

Outside of working hours you will find Connor enjoying the outdoors chasing after his busy (and adorable) toddler and cheering on his beloved Canucks & Seahawks.
