Dr Hort has wonderful communication and I love her approach!

I have been bringing my daughter to see Dr Hort since she was 3 months old. Now at 7 months, I finally decided to seek some help myself. I love how everything is explained in great detail, step by step and in terms I can understand. The team are amazing and even looked after my daughter so that I could focus on looking after myself, they are always excited to see us and make us feel special. We really do love coming here and would recommend Dr for Mom’s to anyone.

I started coming here as a recommendation from my OB/GYN. I am so glad I listened. I don't think I can remember a time when I didn't have back pain. I have always been stiff. My oldest daughter and I were in a car accident a few years ago and we have not felt we fully recovered. All the ladies here have been taking care of us and we are finally able to feel so much relief! They work together and communicate effectively so that to they can get to the root of the problem. They offer so many services and I can't wait to eventually try them all! If I could give them more stars I would!

I felt in such great great hands and so well taken care of, from the moment I walked in to when I left. Thank you for creating such a wonderful space to be as a new (and slightly nervous haha) mom to be ☺️

We as a family of 4 having been seeing Dr. Hort since I was 30 weeks pregnant with our first child 6 years ago. Our son (6), daughter (3), husband and I all benefit from the services at Dr. For Moms.

I started seeing Dr.Hort almost 6 years ago and she is AMAZING ! It's obvious she truly has a passion for what she does .

Mallory Crawford

Our experience with Dr. Hort has been nothing short of amazing. I saw her after the birth of my son and then she has also worked on my son, who was born premature and has awful issues with reflux and gas. Dr. Hort has provided great chiropractic care for both of us. She has worked with us to really understand our concerns and made it possible to keep coming even when finances were a struggle. She is bubbly and upbeat and makes me feel heard and supported while she educates and makes suggestions. Thanks Dr. Hort!

If I could give zero stars, I would. I never take time to write reviews but I wanted to write this one to help other moms to not waist your time and money in this place. I have gone here to see Dr. Hort to treat my 4 months old right torticollis, which they advertise they treat. First appointment was “assessment and adjustment” which lasted just under 30 minutes (which supposedly should be 60 minutes) and I was told that my child didn’t have torticollis. For the “adjustment” part, Dr. Hort literally held her for like 5 minutes (and I am being generous here) massaging the neck and that was that. $145 later I was left with a specific hold to correct the tilt of the head, which I was already doing just by searching online. Hopeful that next appointment there would be stretches or exercises recommended, I go in for the next appointment, which apparently lasts 15 minutes. At this point my child’s head is leaning towards the left side than the right. Dr. Hort once again massaged the affected area of the neck for 5 minutes (again, generous) and just told me to hold her the same way as before but on the left side now. $55 later I was left with no solid resolutions or treatment. Thinking I would give this place another chance, I go in for my third and last appointment, which was the same as the second, with no solutions, stretches or exercises. At this point, my baby still has a right leaning head and no improvements in sight. As a wrap up, dear moms with babies that suffer from torticollis, Dr. For Moms is a complete waist of your time and money. You can find physical therapists that post stretches and exercises even on YouTube that help tremendously with torticollis. Dr. For Moms does not provide with any ground breaking treatment for torticollis that you can’t find online. UPDATE: my little one is all good now, thanks to Calgary Youth Physiotherapy! They are the best! Plus covered by Alberta Health Care for 7 visits before 1 year old! Hope this helps other moms with the same issue! All the best!

I saw Dr.Patti through my whole pregnancy and it brought so much relief and helped my labour immensely! I love her personable approach and that she really spends the time with you instead of rushing out to help the next patient. The ladies at the front are always around to help keep your kids company while you’re busy and are just so nice. Just absolutely LOVE this place ❤️

Jenny Hughes

Courtney Salt RMT has given me awesome massages! Dr Hort is great! Dr. Andrea Clarke, the naturopath is amazing and gives acupuncture or other therapies. Set up is vital for mom like me that have a hard time organizing childcare for appointments!

Cristal Rose

I would not recommend this Dr or clinic at all. I was 8 months pregnant and was rendered unable to move during a treatment. It took me an hour to be able to hobble out of the office unable to walk straight, with my 2.5 yo with me. Minimal help from Dr and staff. Dr didn't seem to know what to do or how to handle it. I couldn't walk straight for about a week. It wasn't until I called their office a couple of days later to cancel all further appointments that the Dr actually reached out to inquire as to how I was doing.

Charlotte Berghofer

I've been going to this clinic for 3 years and always have had a great experience. Seeing them expand with new classes for new mamas is so fantastic. I've enjoyed massage, chiro and naturopath services and they've all been super high quality.

Krista R

I started seeing Dr Hort after my second daughter wad born. 3 years later, I see her once a month for maintenance and my kids both see her as well. Chiropractic adjustments are an amazing help for their growing bodies.

I have been going to Dr For Moms for Chiropractic care since 2016. I first started visiting Dr Hort for help with lower back pain during pregnancy. After the first 4 treatments I experienced a noticeable improvement in my pain and have continued with monthly visits ever since. I've birthed two children since 2016 and the 3 of us see Dr Patti (and sometimes other practitioners, whom I would also recommend - Dr Gina in particular) for regular visits. I would highly recommend Dr For Moms Centre. There are so many great people there, they offer excellent care, and your children can play while you take care of yourself!

I had a really disappointing experience with this place. I signed in for prenatal yoga and paid for 10 classes in advance. They decided to cancel the classes with the instructor and never even bothered to give me a call to let me know. They assumed the Yoga instructor would do so. Then, I showed up for class and asked if they would have another instructor for the following week or to tell me what was going to happen. The receptionist was very helpless and kinda rude in a passive-aggressive way. Conclusion, they only gave me a refund after I called them several weeks later. No consideration whatsoever with their clients.

Can't give this lovely place enough stars! Dr. Hort is amazing and I attest her magic hands to curing my baby's torticolis. I wish I had taken a before and after picture because within just a few short months he went from having one ear looking much smaller than the other, severe torticolis to a nearly perfect shaped head with only chiro and some physio. Megan and Chelsea are AMAZING massage therapists as well. I have brought my severely ADHD kiddo to Chelsea and she is great with him he is continuously asking to go back. I have seen Megan many times over the past years and she has always been such a joyful presence. She is bubbly and I love how easily conversation flows as she is using her magic hands to heal my aches and pains (she is also fine if you just want to faceplant and sleep haha). I have also recently booked appointments with Chelsea and she is awesome by personal experience as well. Can not recommend either of these therapists enough. Reception is always kind and easy going as well. Some places I've been to reception has not been so welcoming... but these ladies are awesome! Easy to chat with, I could sit there all day just visiting about current events. They are so good with kids as well, I had to bring my 5 boys to an appointment once and they took all our shenanigans in a stride and even let us book another appointment (haha!) Just overall a joy going here.

I mostly do Chiro with Dr. Hort, but I also have done some of the yoga, massage (becoming a new fave!) and other events - like Mother's Village. My favorite thing about the clinic is how personal it feels - you walk in and are greeted by name, the staff remember your kids and where you are in your journey. They also really respond to their clients and are open to suggestions and improvements. I've been going for just about 3 years and in that time they've added many new programs and support for new moms and families all by realizing there is a need in the community and striving to meet it. I'd recommend the center to anyone!

Soumia Khedaioui

Dr. Hort is a miracle worker! I was having troubles breastfeeding my newborn and I literally saw improvements in my son's latch immediately. She knows what she is doing. I highly recommend taking your newborn to see her if you are having any issues with breastfeeding.

Kayla Taylor

I started bringing my 3 month old here for some movement issues in his neck. The chiropractor Dr. Hort is not only very knowledgeable but gentle, compassionate and very personable. It’s such a lovely atmosphere, I plan on coming here for myself as well! Could not say enough nice things about Dr. Hort or the staff!

Sara Hayden

The services at Dr. For Moms is beyond amazing. I have been a client for 2 years. The advantage of being able to bring my toddler and have him look after while I am getting treated is most appreciated and convenient. All the staff is amazing, professionnal amd caring. Also love the ressources available for family and moms is fantastic.

Tamara Anderson

I had such a wonderful experience with my son. She is so knowledgeable, gentle, and welcoming, I appreciated the way she explained everything so thoroughly, and helped me feel informed and confident in this process. I highly recommend Dr. Hort, she is such a pleasure to work with!

Katrina Maas

Dr Suhani was great, took her time to get a full history and explain a plan and why this course of action is being taken. Very kind, and overall a great experience

Niamh Keogh

Meghan was great, really enjoyed her prenatal massage! She offered a pregnancy pillow so I could lay face down, as well as gave the option of laying on my side supported by pillows. Definitely will be going back!

meghann Price

I have been going here for almost 3 years and I am in love with it. Everyone is so amazing

Priscilla Webb

I first went to Dr. for Moms 9 years ago when pregnant with my first child. I have continued to see Dr. Hort and a few other practitioners over the past 9 years. Dr. Hort really has succeeded at making Dr. For Moms an amazing place for females with a variety of services for a one stop shop. I have always felt welcome at Dr. For Moms.

This is by far the best choice for a chiropractor. Dr. Hortons has been taking care of my daughter and I for years! Highly professional and the entire team is very caring!

Vanessa Woods

I came into the clinic in so much sciatica pain. It was so unbearable. I’ve had several prenatal massages done previously before seeing megan. She was highly recommended by a friend and let’s just say I found the one. I highly recommend her service. It was by far the most relaxing and therapeutic massage I’ve event had. Thank you megan!

Ann Horie

Dr Holt is Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about her medicine. She explained everything thoroughly including the assessment, short term and long term goals, etc. Overall very positive experience

Kandra Kaufield

I'm so impressed with the level of care this clinic has provided me. Both Dr.Andrea and Dr.Shaunessy have been incredible. Very pleased as a regular patient.

Sue Pereira

When I had my newborn I felt so overwhelmed. My baby was colicky but what I didn’t realize was that she was only having a hard time pooping. Dr. Patti would adjust her and she would have a big poop that same day and a better sleep. Dr. Patti even showed me where to press on my daughters back to help her on the days she didn’t go to chiro. Dr. Patti was so gentle and motherly with my baby. I was pretty anxious back then, since I had no idea what I was doing, but Patti put me at ease. Not to mention (before COVId) they offered free childminding when you booked a message! Looking back, Dr. For Moms was a little sanctuary for me to go to WITH my baby and practice going out in public with a baby. At the time, a very foreign and scary concept. I still go to the clinic and Dr. Patti does such a good job adjusting a squirmy little 2 two year old.

Dr. Hort truly cares about how you are. Great with kids and moms! Love how she takes the time to remember you and that you don’t feel like just another patient but more of a friend.
