Rob Oliver Biography
At 21 years old, Rob Oliver sustained a spinal cord injury while body surfing on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The injury left him paralyzed from the chest down with limited use of his arms and hands. These limitations forced Oliver to take a long hard look at life, relationships and success. The insights that he gained during that experience and through the ensuing years of living with quadriplegia are invaluable, practical, powerful and applicable to all humanity.
Oliver feels that we all experience the “human condition.” Part of that condition is dealing with limitations, adversity and deficits. The choices that we make about how we
After much encouragement, Oliver decided to share these lessons with others as a speaker and author. His first book, “Still Walking”, chronicles his determination to move along life’s pathway regardless of limitations and barriers. “Still Falling” is his second autobiographical book which shares more life stories and lessons including the fact that a positive attitude won’t prevent you from tipping over your wheelchair. He also wrote “Who Me, Yeah You!” an Anti-Bullying book for elementary aged children.
As a speaker, Oliver has shared his message with thousands, speaking at companies, schools, associations and conferences as well as multiple radio and TV appearances. Utilizing his own experiences and research, his audience learns about adversity, success and resilience. Medical professionals and organizations are reminded of what the true purpose of healthcare is and how to put the patient back at it's center. He has twice been recognized with the annual “Best of…” Award as the #1 rated Motivational Speaker in his hometown of Pittsburgh.
Oliver lives with his wife and 3 teenage children. He is active in his community, church and as an advocate for people with disabilities. His goal is to “live life to the fullest.”

I'm new to UPMC and during my Patient Ambassador class you came in and gave a speech. The class was on 3/12/08 and I was really inspired

I saw you at the POTA Conference in Pittsburgh this year and you were AWESOME!!! Your energy and enthusiasm for life are amazing and you have a beautiful family. I think it's so easy for everyone to get 'down' about their own problems, but hearing your story, your faith, your determination, etc. makes it so easy to see the blessings in our lives! I wish you the best and continued success in all you do!!! It was indeed an honor to hear you at the POTA conference!!

Feedback from participants has been overwhelmingly positive and several days later, they are still talking about the impact the discussion and Rob's style has on them and their thought processes. Being able to accomplish that in today's fast-paced clinical environment is impressive. Rob brings his own perspective to the discussion making it all the more realistic and does a wonderful job of facilitating. We hope to continue to utilize his skill and expertise for many more programs.

Rob added much to our Disability Awareness Training for HR Staff at UPMC. He shared his perspective in a positive, down to earth way. We received many positive comments in the session evaluations, saying his viewpoints were the most valuable part of the training and helped our HR staff to see things from the job seekerâs point of view. He was able to add the balance and human perspective we needed to the legal and human resource presentation. He is a gifted presenter and we are very fortunate to be able to tap into his talents.

The response of staff has been overwhelmingly positive, and the students have commented that both the material and the instructor's perspective are impactful, informative and valuable to their daily dealings with patients. Rob's candid and insightful approach establishes a culture of openness within the class that allows for comfortable discussion and a great learning environment. Tough questions can be asked and explored in a non-threatening and proactive manner, with awareness and understanding being at the forefront. Mr. Oliver's style, approach and commitment to the program is an integral part of its impact and popularity.
