Fantastic experience: I've been to Stu several times for a few different injuries and I would highly recommend his team for any physio needs you may have. They are caring, thorough and always recommend only what you need to get back on your bike at a very fair price.

Joanne Molczan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I had a left hip replacement in late February which went well however was experiencing a pulling in my left outer thigh along with pain that radiated from my heel up through my leg, every time I stepped down. A friend recommended Burlington Physiotherapy. I met with Stu, he listened, assessed me then explained why and what his plan of action was for treatment. It’s been just over a month and I feel and walk like a different person. Thank you to Stu and team for a great experience, you’re top notch!!

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks so much for the nice review Joanne. It was our pleasure and we’re very happy with your progress! Keep up the strengthening!

Darrin Wathier Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Stu and his team of professionals have always provided excellent and efficient treatment and service for my family and I over the last 15 years. I’ve referred many friends and work colleagues for assessments and treatments as well.

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks Darrin. Appreciate you and your family. Hoping everyone is well!

Fantastic experience: My 15 year old son had his first session with Stuart due to a baseball pitching injury. Stuart was so kind and knowledge - was able to connect over sports with my son. Highly recommend him for sports related injuries.

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks so much for the kind review Jody! Looking forward to seeing him back in action soon!

Isobel Culliton Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Stuart and his staff are amazing!! I have been going there for almost 3 years. I am so grateful to have found this centre. I have had such great care each time. Each of the staff are so warm, kind, friendly and of course great in what they do. I have walked in there with so much discomfort and by the time my treatments were done I felt great. With my most recent back issue it only took a few sessions for me to feel almost 100% better!! Thank you to all.

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thank you so much Isobel! I’m very glad you’re feeling better!

Loui Silvestri Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough about Stuart, Andrea and Stephanie. They work so well as a team and truly care for their clients. My wife and I have been going there for multiple reasons, including two knee replacements, back and neck issues, and planters fasciitis. Stuart takes the time to really assess your needs before beginning any therapy. They are warm and friendly and treat you like family. We just need to find another reason to go back. Lol.

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks so much for the kind words!! It was our pleasure treating you both as you are wonderful people! Hope you both stay injury free and healthy!

Laura Pennings Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Stuart enough! I had a frozen shoulder for months and nothing I tried worked. After just my first session, I felt real relief, and now am completely back to normal. The difference has been incredible. Stuart’s knowledge, care, and approach made all the difference, and the entire team is friendly, professional, and supportive. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results. Thank you Stuart, Andrea and Stephanie!

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks so much for the great review Laura! Really appreciate your kind comments. Hope you continue to stay healthy!

John Seven Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Stuart and his team are lovely individuals. They helped me get back on my feet after a severe leg injury and major surgery that followed. 10/10 Would recommend!

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks so much for the nice review! We appreciated having you at our clinic and best wishes for continued recovery!

renee bailey Published on Google

Negative experience: I'll never forget something Stewart said to me! "I don't even know if I can do anything for you but I mean you can come here until your hip replacement consultation" That comment upset me and then I thought to myself "What am I doing here?!" He doesn't even care! I ended up going somewhere else and the first thing that they said was "Let's see what we can do! Your condition is uncommon but we are determined to make this work the best way possible! Let's atleast TRY!" I asked Stewart what exercises he recommended I do at the gym. He answers "only you can answer that!" I asked my new place the same question and they printed off sheets of exercises I can do at home and showed me exercises I could do at the gym that would cause pain for my situation. The difference is night and day and the funny thing is there is only a $10.00 cost difference.

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Hi Renee. I’m sorry that you feel this way. Like you said, your situation is a unique one and while I don’t recall saying those things exactly that way, the fact remains we failed to help you. At Burlington Physio, we pride ourselves on caring for our clients and building lasting relationships with them. Unfortunately you only attended two sessions and didn’t give us much of a chance. I understand that you weren’t satisfied and I do apologize for that. We do care and I honestly wish you well with your rehab and recovery.

Mark Hosford Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I enjoyed the HIIT class while I was visiting in town. The fitness class was small and not over crowded which I enjoyed. Andrea our instructor, was detailed in her explanations, extremely nice, and was super motivating. She did a good mix and range of excersise including some I’ve not done before that challenged me. Highly recommend!

David Courtney Published on Google

Fantastic experience: The staff at Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine are exemplary. Stuart, Andrea and Stephanie all helped me with treatment over multiple months, and they were collectively excellent. Additionally, the atmosphere at this clinic is warm and inviting, and a testament to the collegiality of the staff. Highest recommendation.

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks Steven. We hope that you eventually make a full recovery. Appreciate your kind review!

Tyson Griffin Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I (and my children) have been going to see Stuart and his team at Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine for well over 10 years. The clinic is clean, the employees are always smiling and helpful. Personal experience in recovery from a torn achilles to a flare up of sciatica have proven to me that Stuart and his team are very knowledgeable and up to any task needing Physiotherapy. They also bill direct to insurance, which takes away a minor hassle as well. I highly recommend Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine.

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Thanks for the kind words Tyson! Glad we were able to help!

Fantastic experience: After a bad car accident I saw Stuart and Beth to help with my concussion and whiplash. From the treatment at the front desk, to the care and empathy I have received from the practitioners I couldn't have been in better hands. Stuart runs an excellent clinic. I will continue to refer family and friends as I know they will be in good hands.

Tim Large Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Great staff

Tracy Hudson Published on Google

Negative experience: Bad attitude! Posted a NASTY sign on their door telling clients to not parking in their neighbor’s designated parking spots. Why be nasty? 2 spots in the WHOLE plaza designated for this restaurant, and your business feels so offended? Childish. If someone parks in front of a sign for one business, and goes to another, they risk getting towed. Actions have consequences. Grow up! (The dry cleaner has spots, and so does the pizza place and the convenience store. It’s common in busy plazas.)

Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre

Hello Tracy. We checked our client database and have never seen you for Physiotherapy or Massage therapy. My sign was just stating the facts and I’d be happy to discuss this with you in person or via phone call (905 335 5115). I would like to tell you my side of the story. I’m not a malicious person and as a show of good faith, I’ll remove my sign.
