Celebrating Excellence in the Chiropractic Profession in Ontario
Our annual OCA Awards honour Ontario chiropractors and professionals who inspire, deliver exceptional health care, and lead our profession forward.
Every year, you have an opportunity to nominate chiropractic professionals, team members, leaders and advocates who deserve to be recognized and celebrated. When you nominate a chiropractor for an award, you share the story of their professional achievements, as well as the evolution of chiropractic care, across our province.

For more than 60 years, the Chiropractor of the Year has been our most prestigious award. It’s awarded to a practising chiropractor in recognition of their outstanding service, professional achievement and significant contribution, which influences and benefits the profession. The recipient demonstrates the qualities of a leader who upholds the highest professional and ethical standards in their practice.
Congratulations to Dr. Tony Tibbles, our 2023 Chiropractor of the Year!
