Our Team

Mo. Ismail Abdelkader

Adjunct Lecturer at University of Toronto
B.Sc. PT, RPT, AT, PT, MCPA, MOPA
President of Core Physical Care

Mo. Ismail Abdelkader, a Registered Physiotherapist with over 13 years of experience working with different Musculoskeletal complex cases, Neurological conditions, and Sports Medicine.

Not only is Ismail an Adjunct Lecturer at the University of Toronto, but he also is the co-President and the co-Founder of the OIEPB Alumni Association. Additionally, he sits on the OIEPB Advisory Council Committee. Ismail was granted two recognition awards from the University of Toronto for his teaching contributions in 2018 and 2019.

Ismail’s approach is strongly informed by evidence-based Active Therapy rather than more traditional passive modalities; pain management on its own is not rehab. He has always had a deep interest in utilizing multifocal techniques such as Soft Tissue Mobilization, Soft Tissue Release, Joint Mobilization, Trigger Point Relief, Active Therapy, Restorative Mobility Techniques, and Therapeutic Modalities to help people increase their wellness, quality of life, restore their mobility, and live their best life.

Outside of his academic and community private practices, Ismail likes to lead an active lifestyle via outdoor walks, functional training, martial arts, and habitual traveling.
