I made the unfortunate mistake of booking an appointment for my partner here after she suffered from a severe concussion because they had the earliest availability. She saw a concussion specialist, but one who was so bad that it was significantly worse than doing nothing. Luckily, we found another specialist elsewhere who's been great.

I have had shoulder problems my whole life and was referred to Ron Mattison and Heather Keep. Both excellent physiotherapists and very nice people. Highly recommend them.

Nathan is an incredible physiotherapist! I came to him with a sore trap muscle from a training mishap, hoping to recover quickly and get back to training. He took the time to carefully assess the issue, ran tests to pinpoint the exact problem area, and shared a rehab plan with exercises and the option for dry needling. I decided to go ahead with the dry needling, and it was amazing—relieving about 70% of the pain almost immediately. Thanks to his expertise, I didn’t have to take much downtime from my training, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I’m really thankful for Nathan’s thoughtful approach and expertise.

Even though it was my first session and for some reasons my insurance didn’t pay the amount that it was supposed to pay, I had a great experience. Scott ( physiotherapist) did a great job. Lateef (receptionist) was so friendly and helpful.

I got arthritis symptoms in my feet and back after a bout of long Covid. It’s been pretty upsetting bc I’m not old and it’s been impacting my life and my activities. My GP referred me to the ‘best’ sports med clinic in Vancouver when only my foot was diagnosed arthritic. I finally get to the appointment and while the Dr. Orenstein was nice, he was so rushed that he only looked at the one joint I’d originally complained about and wasn’t interested in the pain in the rest of my feet or the overall cause. I left with a prescription for pain cream and a cortisone injection. The cream doesn’t help and I’d like to avoid cortisone because I’ve seen the horrible side effects of steroids. I left feeling unhelped and at square 1. I’ve since researched and started taking Genucol collagen glucosamine supplement and was feeling some relief in my feet (and back, which is also suddenly arthritic) within the week. Our medical system is so severely disjointed. Like do I need to see a rheumatologist? There’s literally no follow up.

Dr Orenstein diagnosed me incorrectly, had me wear a boot for 5 weeks that made my injury worse, waited several weeks to order an MRI despite worsening symptoms, didn't listen to me, was dismissive, and blamed me unnecessarily. He presumed I had a stress fracture despite a clear xray and presentation of symptoms and my physiotherapists' diagnosis being one of a sprain/strain. His wrong assumption and disregard for what I was telling him set me back about 2 months as I rehabilitate to walk again and miss races I've trained hard for. I'd recommend other athletes avoid seeing him and instead find a good physiotherapist who knows their stuff.

I visited this office over a year ago and was told that i was out on a wait list for an MRI scan and was told it may take up to 6 months to get one. After waiting over 1 year I still heard nothing. I emailed the office and was told that they would bring this to the doctors attention. After waiting a few more weeks I still heard nothing. I emailed a second time and was then told that they forgot to fax my original MRI requisition form over a year ago and that they would send it today. This office in my opinion has a very lazy, unfriendly and unprofessional office assistant. I feel like they simply just don’t care to make sure you get taken care of.

I saw physiotherapist Russell Reding for a chronic shoulder problem. Russell evaluated me thoroughly, then gave me a treatment plan of exercises to get me back to everyday tasks and the gym. He is very good at explaining what you need to do, why, and how things could be improved. I also think his positive attitude and his attention to my concerns is what makes him a great physiotherapist. I would recommend him to anyone.
