With regards to my Life Mark review, Panther Sports Medicine is where I went after I left Life…read moreMark. It was so refreshing to visit a physiotherapist who actually adjusted the routine to each individual person. Panther Sports Medicine has many locations across the city, but we were lucky enough to attend the clinic with the owner of it all, Scott. He was such a pleasure to be around too. He would talk to me while poking and prodding, and make jokes to keep me comfortable. I could tell that he really knew what he was doing. Perhaps it was because of all the letters and titles after his name! I was glad that after leaving the friendly environment of Life Mark, Panther showed me the same enthusiasm whenever I visited. The girls at the front desk were always happy to see me and remembered me by name, first and last. They actually let me take home and keep a book I was reading while having physio. I completed my physio before I could finish the book, and they said no one else had touched the book in years, so I could have it. It was fantastic. What cuties! The quality of service at Panther was exceptional. They first did an initial assessment to see where my problems areas were and went from there. I still got the heating pad (and a little nap) every time I went in, but they did so much more to my body. I had acupuncture and intramuscular stimulation, as well as full use of an exceptionally equipped gym. Panther provided regular reports to my insurance company, so they could keep their files up-to-date on my recovery as well. Not only was the treatment phenomenal, but so were the people! Panther Sports Medicine should be a top choice for physical analysis and treatment. The physiotherapists really know what they're doing, and prove that to you when they help you make a quick and full recovery.

This review is based completely on my interactions with my particular therapist - Darcy. I drive…read more30 minutes out of my way because the care he provides is so fantastic. If he should move to another clinic, I would immediately drive to that clinic for treatment. I have been going to Darcy for the last 5 years. I sustained a serious injury in a motor vehicle accident and though I have chronic pain from it, regular physio helps keep me moving and allows me to do things that I otherwise would have a hard time doing - specifically my love of running LONG distances. When I told Darcy that I wanted to run a marathon, he kept me going and provided me with feedback on what types of training would be best for my body. He's excellent with all types of patients and is realistic about what will work best given your particular situation. He IS a Canucks fan though and he does give me a hard time about the Flames. Sometimes I let him get away with the trash talk, let's be honest, the Flames make it hard to defend them on occasion. I should also mention that the rest of the staff are excellent as well. The other individuals that assist throughout the course of my treatment are efficient and pleasant. 17/30

I've only seen Ellen once and Devan a few times. Devan is really good to talk to, if you like to talk during massages. Ellen is friendly as well. I definitely recommend AST for aches and pains !!!!

I've had chronic back pain stemming from a sports related injury. It has been crippling for 10…read moreyears. I've seen every kind of therapist for it for all 10 years. No one could fix it and the word surgery was even being thrown around. I was recommended to see Darren and thought "nothing to lose now. Let's give this guy a shot". I saw him once and he told me that the problem wasn't where I was feeling pain. He taught me how to manage it myself. I didn't have to see him again and I haven't had a problem since that day. Then I started seeing Spiros for carpal and tendinitis issues. It turns out that everyone who works in this clinic is a physio wizard! You can't make a wrong move coming to this clinic!

Hands down, Dr. Darren Yick the BEST chiropractor I have ever been to. Second to none…read more I've been seeing Dr. Yick for many years, when he was working out of clinic in Kensington. I have been to a couple Chiropractors prior and was skeptical he could help my chronic back pain. Shortly after seeing Darren, I am SOLD and have become a life-long client. Dr. Yick is very prudent and results orientated. At my initial consult, he carefully walked me through his process and fully explained why I was having back problems. He also gave me several tips to prevent future issues. He is highly knowledgeable in his profession and uses multiple techniques to help his patients where most physicians repeat the same treatments over and over expecting results. Dr. Yick sincerely cares about his patients and their well-being. He will NEVER treat you like a 'number'. He also advises his patients not to see him unless they really need treatment. Since becoming a patient of Dr. Yick, I feel like a new person. Currently, I am seeing Dr. Yick on and off, mainly to maintain my body or for injuries. Seeing Dr. Yick now is like seeing an old friend. I can't speak highly enough of Dr. Yick. He is AS GOOD AS IT GETS. A truly gifted healer. *Friendly Note: He can get quite busy at times so book ahead. Rest assured, he is very attentive and will do what he can to ensure you receive the best care possible.

So I decided to go this place . My physiotherapists was PT Sam. He did a wonderful job, he did thorough assessment to find the root cause of my pain , then he did dry needling , it immediately relieved my pain going down to my arm and hand. With help of TENS machine and hot packs it relaxed my neck muscles , he did manual therapy to release the tension in my neck within 3 visits . Then he provided with me some exercises which was very easy to follow and remember and very effective at same time . I am still doing it at home. And the best part was the way he communicate and explained me thoroughly about all treatment process. He is very knowledgeable. I like the vibes of he place , all other staff were very friendly and supportive. I highly recommend you to go this place and visit PT Sam. He is the best.

I saw a lovely lady at the grocery store today wearing the same knee brace, on the same leg that I…read morehad injured, that my ortho surgeon had suggested I use. My heart went out to her. The brace was large, heavy looking and ran the length of her leg. She walked quite slow, had a significant limp, and when I greeted her and looked her in the eye, she seemed very unhappy, and kind of........defeated. This all struck me where I live because that so easily could have been me, and would have been me, had I not gotten involved with Merrylee and her compassionate, talented colleagues at Bonavista Physio. It takes special people to work with cases like mine, week in and week out, investing quality time, giving direction, support and encouragement. I really got that at Bonavista. My quality of life today speaks to their awesome ability to transform, with reasonable client cooperation, of course, a devastating injury into a work of healing. A big part of what I took away from Bonavista Physio is education. I now know what stretching and strengthening moves to do twice a day, I have learned how to intelligently increase degree of difficulty, when and how to just chill, recognize a flare-up and what to do about it, although - probably due to my physio inspired level of fitness - they are rare. And, funnily enough, when the movements that were specifically designed for my healing get fun, and they did, things get kind of magical. I am actually happier and more fit now than I was before my knee injury. As part of my rehabilitation, I started walking 10-15 min a day, and now go for 35-50 min walks (although the other day I hit 63 min, just sayin') 6 days a week. I have lost about 50 pounds in the process, and friends, in all honesty, all of this simply would not have happened without the awesome direction and support I got at Bonavista Physio. As I left the grocery store, walking happily and easily in the sunshine, I realized just how lucky I am. I mean, I frolic now, for reals. Bonavista Physio, and all who bring their efforts to it, are a permanent part of my ongoing healthiness and happiness. GOOD JOB PEOPLE! Sincerely, Tammy McNabb

What could have happened in the 15 mins, that he couldn't see me at the appointed time. He just blew me off and I had to re-schedule! That is totally unacceptable and a total show of disrespect to the client. Even doctors just let you wait longer if they're running late! I never scheduled another session with John again. I seriously thought of going elsewhere for the rest of my sessions too.
