“I started seening David after a car accident anout 2.5 years ago. I have multiple incurable disabilities (EDS, pOTS, Fibromyalgia and a comprised left artirial artery in my neck) and he was the first medical person I'd ever met that knew anything about my body, my conditions or my pain. Things were great to start with. He seemed compassionate, insightful and like he genuinely cared. Then things started to slip. I wasn't getting a lot better and my chronic conditions have me in excruciating pain most days. I guess it was too much for him and he wasn't interested in helping make my quality of life any better. After about 6 months of seeing him, David started telling me to kill myself. He described different ways to do it that would be untraceable (rhubarb leaf tea) and to make sure to not tell my legal team what he was suggesting. I continued to see David because his adjustments helped keep me functioning and there aren't a lot of people/specialists around that know about and can work with, my conditions. When I saw David last in January 2024 he sat down and told me I needed to contact MAID. So that after my best friends wedding next year, I can cash in my chips. What kind of medical professional consistently tells you to kill yourself and doesn't even want to try to improve their patients quality of life? David made that conversation completely about him and how 'horrible' he supposedly felt saying it. Hearing your specialist constantly telling you to kill yourself, is distressing to say the least and makes your brain go in a million different directions. That day he did it with a 'witness' in the room. I didnt know how to react im the moment, so I tried to comfort him, a conversation we had even had before. This time he took my words out of context, spun them around and convinced himself that I'm inappropriate, said things i didn't say and that I am 100% the wrong. Now refuses to see me, hasnt actually said a word to me and relies on my legal team to relay messages. I didn't even know what his problem was for over a month. When i did go in because my ribs popped, he wouldnt speak to me and threw me around like a random sack of bones. It hurt, made me feel very sick and my body was in worse shape for it. Something is absolutely messed up in this man's head. I can no longer, in good conscience recommend David Volpi or Strive therapy to anyone that needs anything more than the most basic of care.”Read moreShow less

“I would absolutely recommend Strive to anyone in need of some physical pain relief!! I have been to countless doctors, chiropractors and 2 other physiotherapists over the course of 6+ years of pain...sometimes so debilitating that I cannot hold employment because I have had to take extended time of frequently due to pain in my lower back and hips. I found Strive Physiotherapy & was connected up with David, let me tell you that I have finally found someone who has listened to me thoroughly describe my history and who is really delving into my issues and giving me hope & pain relief!!! It’s not something that will just go away but I have confidence in David and know that he is doing all he can to help me and that is so wonderful! I finally got xrays of my back and hip for the first time ever to rule out certain medical issues and he hasn’t stopped there! I am currently being referred to a sports med doctor to further diagnose what’s going on! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me live with less pain and giving me hope for the future!!! Also reception is so great to fit me in on the fly often as I have a baby and it’s hard to make appointments in much advance! Thanks so much all”Read moreShow less
