Accompanying my wife post her meniscus repair surgery for her rehabilitation and physio sessions and so far it's a great experience. Good front desk service and physiotherapists listen to individuals needs and work with them in getting back to their post surgery goals at the earliest. Highly recommended.... (Show more)
Unprofessional management and always shared my time with other patients
Really friendly staff that are easy to get along with and always make sure you’re looked after. Great service, lots of parking and I definitely recommend this Physio to everyone !
Top notch physio. Tried a few for my son who plays a lot of spot with no improvement - after the first session dramatic improvement. The level of care and attention to detail these guys show is really excellent. Highly recommended.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Today was my first session at sport physio Norwest with Nicole C. I have had a total rupture of my right Achilles tendon mid-August and have had surgery. Mid-October my boot was taken off and I started physio in another place. 6 weeks later I still cannot walk and I have no motion in my foot. Thinking it was taking too long I decided in changing physio center. Seeing my surgeon on Wednesday, he made it very clear I was behind a month and at this rate he would have to re-operate. After 1 hour session with Nicole C. the progression is incredible. Nicole C. is kind, friendly and professional. She did manual work on my ankle for 40 minutes before I started any exercises, I received no manual treatments before going to Sport Physio Norwest. The difference when I walked in and then when I walked out was so incredible other people commented about it. I am very satisfied and I am looking forward to work with Nicole C. from physio Norwest. Thank you, I have regain confidence and hope. The young person at reception is very friendly and professional as well. PS: After 6 weeks of treatment at Norwest Sport Physio, my progression has been incredible. I gained 9.5cm range in 6 weeks! I was able to drive after 3 weeks. I have built in strength, motion and confidence. Nicole C. is amazing and really knows her stuff. Thank you so much!... (Show more)
