Drew Galvez, OTD, OTR/L was born and raised in Chicago, IL. He went to Illinois State University in Normal, IL and graduated with his Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science in 2017. Following graduation, he attended Drake University in Des Moines, IA where he earned his Doctor of Occupational Therapy degree in 2021. Drew is a certified Kinesio Taping Practitioner (CKTP) through the Kinesio Taping Association (KTA) and a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) through the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM).
He focused his doctoral clinical rotations in hand therapy under the supervision of multiple Certified Hand Therapists (CHTs). Drew had the opportunity to work alongside and learn from hand surgeons at Northwestern Medicine Hospital in Chicago, IL. He then relocated to Glendale, AZ to complete his doctoral capstone with a CHT, after which he attained a position in the field of his passion as a hand therapist. Drew has considerable experience treating crush, tendon/ligament, and peripheral nerve injuries, as well as fractures, tendinopathies, infections, burns, amputations, and neurological conditions. Drew takes pride in fabricating orthoses to restore function to the upper extremity and to the person holistically.
Drew’s extensive background in Exercise Science provides him with a strong foundation to create meaningful and individualized occupation-based interventions for his patients to regain their independence. He believes in treating others by the quote, “Occupational therapy practitioners ask, ‘What matters to you?’ not, ‘What’s the matter with you?’” – Virginia Stoffel.
In his spare time, Drew enjoys strength training and playing basketball. He also spends time caring for and relaxing with his two cats, Mimi and Lulu.

Slow and not really communicating with patient
Outstanding therapist!
Very helpful, always friendly, made therapy “fun!”
Drew Galvez was, patient, thorough and knowledgeable. His calm demeanor put me at ease during my visit.
Staff, supplies, patient care are excellent; One on one therapy with patients will be more fulfilling for patients without distractions or multitasking; encouragement and entitling patient power is excellent. Thank you, Drew and Julia!

Drew has done a great job with my injury. I followed him to Ortho AZ from another place because he does what I ask and and he's worked with me since day one. Great job
Answered my questions and assisted with other appointments. Very personable. Very through.
Drew Galvez has been treating my broken wrist for several months. He is a O.T. specialist in hands and arms. Drew is a top professional, kind, caring, and knowledgable. I would highly recommend Drew Galvez and Ortho Arizona's Occupational Therapy.
