Wilson has been a Canberra boy since 1975 completing all his schooling here before undertaking his medical studies at the University of NSW graduating with first class honours in 1994. His overseas student elective was completed at the Hospital for Sick Children and Wellesley Hospital in Toronto, Canada. After his junior doctor years at the Repatriation General Hospital at Concord he was a paediatric registrar at the Children's Hospital at Westmead. Ten years of general practice then led to a keen interest in sports medicine after volunteering at the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.
Wilson completed a Graduate Diploma in Sports Medicine via the University of NSW and has been very active in the sports medicine circles around Canberra since 2001. He was a board member of the ACT Branch of Sports Medicine Australia for 7 years and has worked in the past with various sporting teams including ACT Brumbies, Matildas, Kookaburras, Tongan Rugby Union (Rugby World Cup 2003), Canberra Marathon, World Long Distance Triathlon Championships, Half Iron Man Triathlon, Wests Rugby Union, Canberra Gunners, Canberra Capitals, Belconnen Magpies, Canberra Womens Classic WTA Tournament and Canberra Cavalry Baseball Team.
In recent years he has been the assistant team doctor for GWS Giants, team doctor for Canberra Raiders NRL and NYC teams, Kangaroos Rugby League Team, New Zealand Junior Kiwis, Kiwi Ferns and Cook Islands Rugby League Teams.
His current appointments include team doctor for Canberra Raiders junior teams, Canberra United (W league) and the Chief Medical Officer for Capital Football and the ACT Academy of Sport. He is a professional associate of UCRISE (University of Canberra Research Institute For Sport & Exercise).
He is a full member of Sports Doctors Australia and Fitness Australia. Bruce Sports Medicine is his brainchild and is a place where experienced practitioners from various disciplines can share and discuss knowledge to aim for better outcomes of patients and clients. It is based on the campus of UC in order to integrate with public multidisciplinary clinics, teaching allied health students and research into medicine, exercise and nutrition. It also provides a service for consultation for other private practitioners of various disciplines across Canberra and surrounding region.
Outside of work he spends all this time with his 2 sons and 2 dogs and runs a martial arts and dragon dance academy. His health and fitness blog is at www.drwilsonlo.com.aun
