Expérience fantastique: He was very efficient, professional and friendly. He made it very easy for me to have a well rounded understanding of what my issue was regarding my injury. I would recommend Oak Bay Physiotherapy and OT to anyone that required physio. I already have, actually. To my father. He will be in good hands.

Expérience fantastique: I went to see Andrew 10 years ago for positional vertigo and I was treated and cured in one session….. 10 years later I have had the same problem and Andrew treated me with the utmost care and concern and I was again cured in one treatment.

Expérience fantastique: Very effective and efficient physiotherapy. Andrew dealt with multiple problems in one appointment, got to the source of them and provided treatment that worked!

Expérience fantastique: Andrew is the best. I cannot say enough good things about the guy. I had an issue with my hip that sent me to bed rest for 6 months, in large part because I was misdiagnosed many, many times. Andrew had a single appointment with me and said "it's probably this, plus this - because it's been so bad for long, which is why they're having trouble diagnosing you". He was entirely right, and is probably the biggest reason that I'm walking pain free right now. He was supportive, helpful, gave me the best advice throughout the entire process. Also an extremely friendly and kind person, which is so incredably helpful when you're in such extraordinary pain for so long.

I dealt with back pain for years and saw many different physiotherapists, chiropractors and massage therapists and he was the first one to actually provide me with long standing relief. Andrew also cares a lot about his clients and creates meaningful connections with them. I can't recomend him enough he is amazing!

Expérience fantastique: I have been helped by Andrew immensely with Vestibular Physiotherapy over the last 5 years. I always feel that Andrew knows more than anyone I have encountered with vestibular issues and I completely trust his judgement on treatment and rehab for my labyrinthitis and BPPV. Many thanks for looking after me whenever my BPPV acts up. Thank you so much!

Expérience fantastique: Last month I suffered an acute dizziness/ vertigo problem that was out of the blue and quite debilitating. On advice of a neighbour, I contacted Andrew Mills and to my great relief, I got an immediate appointment. I received excellent care and follow up by Andrew Mills, Oak Bay Physiotherapy and OT. I was amazed at the use of technology to ‘see’ what was happening- and in my case, the exercises and information was everything I needed to heal and get back to normal. I highly recommend Andrew!

Expérience fantastique: I highly recommend Andrew at Oak Bay Physio. Andrew did an excellent job helping me with a back issue and got me back to normal and feeling better. I appreciate his personal, kind and caring manner.

Expérience fantastique: Andrew’s the best. I’ve been seeing him off and on for years for everything from vertigo, old injuries, sprains, and torn tendons. I recommended him to three friends, all of whom contacted me after their visits and thanked me profusely. He’s caring, knowledgeable, and is concerned about your welfare.

Expérience fantastique: I agree with all the positive reviews. Andrew is highly skilled, he quickly put me at ease, and he is a good and empathetic listener. I have osteoporosis, but the biggest issue was SI joint disfunction which was not only painful but made mobility very challenging. I'm grateful to have my life back! If you need a physiotherapist I highly recommend him.

Expérience fantastique: Hands down, no pun intended the best treatment and results I have had on my long journey of back and neck issues. After back surgery I had residual pain which Andrew healed. He is calm and efficient and explains everything well. I recommend his services 100%.

Expérience fantastique: Andrew was fantastic and very thorough with his assessment. I’m already feeling better after my adjustment, needling and exercise homework.

Expérience fantastique: I have been seeing Andrew for a few years now, for migraines and vertigo, and various ouchies. From my first visit to now, he has been consistently kind, caring, and resolving my issues efficiently. This last one might not be what comes to mind for some, but I tend to have weird pains and things out of place and it would take other physios multiple visits to just identify the issue (or never!), leaving me in pain longer...Andrew is able to pinpoint the source quickly and fix it! When you live with chronic pain, this matters immensely. He is very knowledgeable, genuinely cares, and has been the only one able to relieve my symptoms so I can have better quality of life.

Expérience fantastique: Andrew is the best physiotherapist in Victoria and I reckon would give most chiropractors a run for their their money, with his skill in manual therapy adjustments. I met him over 6 years ago, when I had severe SI pain and numbness going into my extremities. He fixed that issue within 1-2 treatments. If you want to get out of acute pain quickly and move on to living your life, this is your guy. He’s incredibly intuitive in his approach, and also just a great dude all around (good laughs & chats – who says going for treatments can’t be also fun?!). I go for tune-ups as needed, and it keeps me out of severe pain and stiffness (I have fibromyalgia). Knowing him has been a true blessing – I cannot imagine how much worse my life would’ve been, without his help and the good fortune of finding his practice. I really appreciate his caring, personable manner, he always shows consideration for the complexities of my situation (living with a complex chronic health condition).

Expérience fantastique: Great listener. excellent

Expérience fantastique: I certainly concur with all the raving reviews I have read concerning Andrew’s qualities as my physiotherapist. He has cured my vertigo twice going back several years. He accomplishes this swiftly and with great confidence and expertise. He puts one at ease and removes any anxiety that one may have regarding a positive outcome. More recently Andrew has tackled my issue with walking due to weakness , imbalance and an awkward gait. He listened as I described my concerns and difficulties and in his very caring way has worked on this with me with very encouraging successes. He explains what he feels is happening and inspires me to work hard to achieve a better future for myself for which I am so grateful. His knowledge is incredible and I would recommend him to anyone who is seeking help .

Expérience fantastique: I've been fortunate to have Andrew Mills as my physiotherapist for the last 5 years.

Expérience fantastique: Andrew Mills - I have seen Andrew twice and have been impressed with the results already. The repositioning he did for the vertigo I was experiencing helped immensely on the first day. Andrew is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to.

I definitely recommend Andrew for all your dizzy and vertigo needs.

He has helped me heal from an ACL injury along with a motor vehicle accident. Andrew is professional yet very approachable and friendly, which honestly makes going to the Physio more enjoyable than anything! If I could give this 10000 stars of praise I would!

Expérience fantastique: I literally would not be able to function without the expertise and skills of Andrew Mills. I suffer from frequent vertigo and with each bout Andrew is able to give me my life back with one treatment. I had previously worked with other practitioners but no one else seems to have the same magic. Andrew is very knowledgeable and passionate about what he does, going above and beyond to investigate the specific way my vertigo presents. On top of that he is just a great human - personable, supportive, accommodating and able to make me laugh even when I feel miserably ill! I can not recommend him highly enough.

You will leave with the security that your illness is manegable and with an appropriate plan for success.

Expérience fantastique: I have been seeing him as my physiotherapist since before the Pandemic. He is knowledgeable and skilled. His bedside manner is fantastic. The treatment modalities that he has performed or recommended for me have been very effective at treating the various injuries that I have collected over the years. I have followed him across a couple of different clinics at this point. Even after moving a significant distance away from his practice. In addition, Andrew has been a go to physiotherapist for a significant number of my friends, all of whom have additional complications to treatment. I wholeheartedly recommend seeing Andrew.
