Reviews of Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Centre (Massage Therapist)

Judith Seymour

I have been coming to M2M for a number of years and have always found the staff to be knowledgeable, understanding and accommodating! When I first started, I was walking backwards down the stairs because of the pain in my knees. I am now able to walk normally down stairs and am able to participate in all the sports activities that I love including: downhill skiing, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, biking and walking. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking to get back on their feet after an injury or who just wants to ensure that they have total body conditioning that will allow them to live a full life into those senior years!

Julie MacDonald

Staff is caring and professional. I would highly recommend this clinic. My physiotherapist is thorough and very attentive to all my needs, thank you SM.

Brad has no idea what he's doing. Went there 3 times for a shoulder problem and he didn't even properly touch me or diagnose me. The last straw for me when he passed me to an intern to put me on those TENS machines for 30 mins . Like dude.. I have Dr. HO at home.. saw absolutely no improvement.. I know some problems take longer but it's the initial diagnosis and effort that will make me want to come back. I realized how incompetent he was until I went somehwere else with proper knowledge and now my shoulder is improving after only 2 sessions. Soo dissatisfied with the waste of time and the pain that I was living with.

June 20th, 2018: 4 Stars A stark change in behaviour by the administration staff, I was very impressed. Doctor and administration was lovely. June 18th, 2018: 3 Stars A day after leaving my previous review, I was contacted by their customer support team. Today they called me and apologized profusely for the administration team's behaviour, and I was told that all the administration was pulled aside and talked to about their behaviour. They then told me my next appointment was being covered and that they were grateful I was staying with their doctor dispite the bad experience. I will update with my experience with their administration staff the next time I go in. Something can be said for their public relations work. Very kind. June 13th, 2018: 2 Stars Unfortunately horrible administration staff given the excellence of the actual physiotherapist I saw, Dr. Avik. They threw forms and payment machines at us all while speaking in rapid fire. This is also while knowing I was a concusion patient. I was so confused by what they were asking us for and what the forms were for. The actual Doctor, however, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He kept telling me I was doing great and gave us clear and solid information about the process.

I have been going to Mind to Muscle for years. They have helped me tremendously with sport injuries as well as supporting my personal fitness goals. The coaches and professionals are very knowledgeable and are attentive to what my needs and goals are. Thanks Mind to Muscle!!

Christopher Wilkinson

I thoroughly enjoy Mind 2 Muscle and look forward to all my appointments . Love the entire staff and the unbelievable work they do. My physio has been fantastic and I always look forward to the training/exercise their expertise put you through. Much appreciation to everyone at M2M!

Sarah McKinnon

After my car accident 3 years ago I started going to Sports Medicine. I have recieved, and continue to receive several different treatments from them and am always more than satisfied with the service I get. They help keep my pain manageable, and it definitely wouldn't be without them. The desk staff are always helpful and pleasant as well!

Melanie Taylor

Mike Besso is the most knowledgeable chiropractor in his field. He has treated myself and my family for years. Always finding the root cause of the issue and using a variety of techniques to treat and resolve issues in a very short period of time. In addition, his demeanor and caring manner make him the ultimate professional. Highly recommend Mike @ Barrie Sports Medicine - Huronia!

Paul Matheson

A huge thank for the outstanding service and treatment! Up to date with current research, pragmatic, great framing of information pertaining to treatment and recovery. Highly recommended!

James Murney

George Yuan is the king. I went to George in constant, daily, back pain from a herniated disc in my back/neck...over the course of a couple months, he helped me with patience and compassion and always kept me motivated to keep up on the rehab. its never going to be perfect but he's gotten me to a place where the pain is almost all but gone, i have my workout routine back and im not constantly distracted by pain. Cannot recommend him enough, 10/5 stars.

Sydney Seward

I just finished my treatment at Sports Medicine for both my car accidents and could not be more satisfied. I was seeing Brad and Laura, they both took excellent care of me during my recovery and always listened to my concerns/needs. The staff are so kind and accommodating. They always made sure to take the necessary precautions to keep their patients safe due to covid. Great place, I highly recommend!

Fiona Greco

IHghly recommending Sports Medicine an amazing team of experts. Made a difference after a few months of therapy my knee is stronger and less painful throughout the day.

Cory Bouchard

Being a patient here, everyone here is really nice and welcoming. You could strike a conversation with most of anyone there even fellow patients. The physician benches there on the right side of the patient room (all one big room) have curtains so if you want to be private you can but, the physician offices there are the most private (as they are secluded rooms) but are only for the first day to be examined. (In my personal experience) So overall good place to go.

Steven Hussey (fishrman)

Great place to get your rehab and physio done.

Mind to Muscle Barrie

My older son had visited this location for physio (sever's disease). Ivanka was outstanding! She was extremely knowledgable, confident about her assessment & treatment plan, patient with my son about explaining the injury & exercises. She engaged him well and was able to solicit good feedback from him about weekly improvements in his condition. The staff were always friendly. The facility is clean & has lots of natural light which we loved! Parking was ample & free. The long clinic hours made it easy for me to get an appointment! Thanks Ivanka!

saurabh mahajan

This is the worst physiotherapy clinic in Barrie. I wasted my money for 2 months going here for treatment and no relief. Useless. Please go somewhere else.

Ruby MacLeod

Lovely people

Northerncharger (Northerncharger)

I have mobility issues and Massage Therapist Barclay Peltier is my saviour! He is the one that keeps me moving and pain free, without his extensive knowledge and treatments, I don't think I'd be still walking. He is outstanding in his field and I would not hesitate to recommend him to any friend. All the staff at BSM are great, but Barclay is absolutely 5 stars in my book!

Ashley Pettie

I love coming here every week! The trainers are well educated and have helped me to live a pain free life. I am excited to continue to work with the team to bring me a healthier place.

Sandy Brand

I was at a loss on how to recover from a concussion, then I found exactly the help I needed at the Sports Clinic. Their expertise, exercises and knowledge made all the difference. Thank you so much. I am 99% better now. Sandy

Lilli Mercer

Margaret Harlos

Love the clinic. Staff are wonderful and professional. The gym is excellent. Have helped me immensely with my some extreme pain throughout my body with massage. Highly recommend Craig. He’s amazing.

Lissa Renaud

Dr Korkola was great, showed me my mri and explained everything in detail. Directed me on some Lifestyle changes to help aid in my recovery and prolong surgical intervention. For now things are great and I haven’t had to go back since my consultation as I followed his simple recommendations to help myself! Was a game changer cause I was in a lot of pain at the time.

Michael Paris

Always friendly staff.

Jane King

An excellent facility. The reception staff are super efficient, the facility is very clean and most importantly the treatment I had was excellent. I was confident that I was getting getting the treatment that was best suited for my injury.

Kevin D

Very professional

Tim Deremo

Everyone from the cleaning lady to the front desk staff are friendly and helpful. The training staff at Mind to Muscle are second to none! They take the time to show you each exercise and more importantly, make sure you area doing them properly! Thank you all for helping me achieve new fitness goals and a healthier lifestyle.

Mark Cristante

The staff were very professional and well educated. Highly recommend their services.

Jason Lessard

Started attending this location after my physiotherapist started here from another company. I was happy with the appointment availability as well as the numerous other things that they offered including massage.

Jason Stevenson

I like going to Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Centre

Amy McCann

Ivanka Videc is such a skilled physiotherapist- I will only drive to Barrie for her!

Keith Gruchy

Excellent

Matt Neller

Raphael Soares was AWESOME!! I rolled my ankle on August 6th. By Friday August 14th my foot was cold and looking blue from not using it for a week. I decided to visit Sports Medicine and Raphie took a look at it and told me my ankle was not that bad. My Family Doctor advised me over the phone to keep off my foot for 2 weeks. Raphie had me putting weight on it my first visit. He gave me the confidence to believe it would not get worse. I am now golfing and playing hockey because of Raphie's exercises and stretches he provided me. I thought for sure I was going to be in rehab for 4-6 weeks. Raphie had me putting weight on my ankle after only a week of treatments. Thanks Raphie!!! Cheers.

alice holmes

I have been going to this place off and on for 10 years, whenever I throw out my back, have knee pain, or when I broke my ankle. My 12 year old daughter has also attended with success. I have come to know many of the amazing staff and each and every one of them have been so helpful, professional, and successful at getting me back on my feet again and more importantly, free of pain. Thank you! Shout out to Ivanka, Kelly, Brian, Brooklyn, and Dasha.

Mary Beth Colman

The life of a physically active senior occasionally requires intervention to keep all the body’s moving parts moving and The Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic has provided excellent tune ups. The whole team, right from the front desk to the therapy room is highly professional, knowledgeable, personable and friendly.

Kelly Edgecombe

In early November, I began feeling severe lower back pain. To say the least, it was very tough for me to bend down and put my socks on. I wasn't sure how it started or what caused it, but it nearly put a stop to some of my day to day activities. I live a very active life style, so I was hoping to get some quick help. I was referred to see a Physiotherapist at Sports Med and was seen almost right away! At Sports Med, I was seen by Bentzen Takyi. Bentzen had me back on my feet and feeling less pain in no time! He really took the time to find the root of the problem and teach me ways that I could help myself heal from home too. Without Bentzens professional skills and guidance I am not sure where I would be today! Thank you Bentzen!

Jessica Prokopec

My son worked with Brian Caroll and other staff when he had a concussion in the fall and is currently seeing Michael for a separated shoulder. The team was kind, courteous and worked together WITH Alex to make him better. What impressed us the most is that they had the ability to break down and explain the injury and care plan in “adult” terms but also in ways that a 13 year old would understand. Very impressed!

Isabelle Bertrand

Always friendly and courteous. Been to this Centre a few times for different issues and had great results from them. Definitely recommend this Centre.

Ryan Pighin

I hurt my knee and was referred here from the ER doctor. I was lucky enough to have Dr. Avik Sarkar who was fantastic. He spent time explaining everything we were doing and why, set me up with exercises and he was also very personable (always remembered what we talked about the prior visits, etc). Highly recommend Avik and Sports Medicine & Rehab

Steve Neal

I have personally been using this facility for myself and my athletes when needed for too many years to mention! Their professionalism and level of care is always above my expectations. Working with athletes it is always nice to know that they are getting great care to get back to 100%.

Jane Rice

The staff are wonderful and know their stuff . They have been very helpful to me and I chose to work with them so that I wouldn't have to have another back surgery. I don't have anything negative to say.

Melissa Bernier

Sports Medicine is a wonderful place to go for professional, kind, respectful treatment. I highly recommend everyone that our family has been treated by at this location.

Paul Hine

Thorough therapist with a vast knowledge of my condition and proven methods to help with the recovery

Geordie

Raphael Soares provides caring service, never rushed and always effective.

Kim Taitt-Meikle

My Therapist was punctual . No real waiting time . Staff was always polite and friendly. I actually felt as though they I had mental as well as physical therapy after my sessions. I always left feeling relaxed and less stressed than when I went in. I would definitely recommend the Spring Water Sports Medicine and Rehab centre .

Scott Leach

I have a complicated shoulder issue and the staff here help ALOT! The ladies at the front are also very nice. Thanks y’all :)

countrysidepatty

Awesome People there what a great place to recuperate and heal ????

Rob T

Horrible administration. Completely exhausted with dealing with the staff. They were completely unwilling to assist me in any way. After dealing with another clinic out of town, I understand how easy it should really be.Off to look for another clinic that can help me instead of bogging me down with unnecessary paperwork.

Norm Barker

FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Laurie Williams

I have received amazing pre- and post-surgical care regarding physio for a right knee replacement. It is very comfortable attending at the facility with stringent guidelines in place regarding Covid-19.

S oares

Always a great experience with Avik at Sports Medicine. It's a great team that works there.

Jeff Belchos

This is the third time I have used Sport Medicine. First time was for a shoulder, second was a knee replacement and this time was a hip replacement. My quality of life has been so improved since the operation, but the rehab from Raff,Adam and most of all Julie. Raff and Adam where great working with me and getting me on track, but Julie was the one who push me to get the most out of my rehab. Working with me two times a week, always there with a encouraging words and working on my technique to get the most out of me. I am able to go on hikes with my family now, do day to day chores and will be returning back to work next week because of all the help I received. Can’t say enough for these three people. Ready to start living life again. Thank You Jeff

Katelyn Benson

Big shout out and thank you to Tanay. I originally came in due to a strained neck, however, told him about the pain I have been experiencing on and off again for the past several months in my wrist. He has been the only person to actually listen and not dismiss it. Not only is he experienced, but he takes the time to explain everything to make sure you understand. Also, the receptionists are super friendly and very helpful with insurance!

K Szyman

Staff is friendly and experienced.

Deborah Caspick

Shannon has been a phenomenal person to work with. She is always coming up with unique ideas to keep changing my workout routine.

Bob Zuruncle

Very happy with everyone there and the treatments I'm getting.

Elizabeth Townsend

I have used the Huronia location twice over the past few years, have worked with Kelly there and have always found her pleasant, knowledgeable and willing to work with me in resolving my issues. The staff are all very pleasant and know what customer service is all about. I would recommend this location to anyone.

Nykyta Gatrell

I would recommend Barrie sports medicine to everyone I know ! Not only are the ladies at the front desk friendly and efficient but avik and Laura are amazing ! They take such good care of their patients! Definately see avik for your chiropractor needs and laura for a wicked massage!!! Thanks again Barrie sports medicine!!

Theresa McRae

Very knowledgeable staff and everyone provided excellent service. If required I will return to Sports Medicine.

Ive always had nothing but great experiences with Barrie Sports Medicine. From your friendly helpful front desk receptionists right into physiotherapy.... you have all been great. I have done several mind to muscle sessions (i realize they are not called that anymore) with Ben before he was hurt and Jimmy following and they have both been excellent. Adam is my physiotherapist and i cannot say enough great things about Adam as well. I would not be where I am physically without Barrie Sports Medicine so thank you for everything you do. Kale S

Patricia Huestis

My husband and I received exceptional chiro and physio treatments from some really caring and highly trained people. We recommend this clinic to all family members.

Bryan Revelle

Knowledgeable staff, helped me recover quickly

M L

Had a great experience with Shannon for my TMJ ☺️

Brenda Lalonde

I really enjoy working with the athletic therapist and feel that I am making improvements. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was that I have to wait for my reassessment to make future appointments and I am afraid I am not going to get the time slot that works for me.

D Tap

Admin staff is terrible as noted in other reviews. Got a referral. Was called back and given and appointment time. However I was provided with a false address. When I arrived to another business to find the mistake, i the clinic called back. Their response was "oops. We will get you in later this week". Time is not free. I'll find another clinic. Can't say anything about the therapists, couldn't get a proper appointment to see one. Shop around before going here.

Jennifer Hunt

I have been a long time patient of Sports Medicine because of their professionalism and expertise with treating my sports injuries. The reception staff greets you with a smile and addresses you by name. I feel welcome every time I visit the clinic and when I leave I am offered a sincere good bye. I recently had an issue with my insurance provider refusing to pay for services rendered. This was an error on the part of my insurance provider, but I still owed over one thousand dollars for treatments. Bonnie at reception took carriage of my file and was amazingly understanding and patient while I rectified the issue with my insurer. Bonnie made me feel like I was a valued client despite having an outstanding balance for over two months. I felt embarrassed by what my insurance company put me through but at no time did Sports Medicine make me feel anything but welcome by working with me. The situation has been rectified and my family and I continue to attend the clinic receiving the best physiotherapy service in the business. Ivanka and Kelly H are our therapists at the clinic and they make every visit an enjoyable and educational one. They take the time to explain every step in treating our conditions and injuries so we understand what is happening and how to best resolve our complaints. I have recommended many family and friends to use Sports Medicine for their injuries and medical conditions and am thanked over and over for the amazing experiences they have. If you are looking for the best in the business, Sports Medicine should be your first choice. Ronald, Jennifer & Ellie Hunt

Paul Anthony

Great staff, and amazing results. Big thanks to Brigette & Jen for working with my Son and getting him back to his best

Chris Austin

I have used Eagle Ridge for two injuries now. The Staff are TOP NOTCH! My Physiotherapist is Tanay. He takes the time to explain things clearly to me. He listens very well. The office staff Bonnie, Chelsea, Kenzie, & all the other ladies are VERY friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. They assist with completing paperwork and the online claim process is easy. The facility is very well equipped and kept very clean. The co-op students Jane, Chris, Claire, Kaitlin are wonderful. They work hard to help. I would highly recommend this facility!☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

ROXY REIMER

Avik & Brian were both amazing helping me recover from my severe concussion. Thanx so much gentleman!

Aggie Martinez

Great place for a massage. Staff very experienced

Tara C

Sports Medicine is a great therapy clinic with many services in one place - physiotherapists as well as massage and chiro. The staff is very caring and friendly. I would recommend them to anyone.

Jeff Wallis

Ivanka Videc, Physiotherapist has done an amazing job rehabbing my neck. Before seeing Ivanka my neck was in a state of pain. She has worked magic and I am now pain free. Thank you Michelle Torrie for the referral!

thess masters

excellent

Michelle Harwood

Have been going here for awhile. So many services available all your health needs. Dr. Besso is fantastic. A great doctor, takes the time to figure out the best treatment and follows though. The reception staff are very pleasant and friendly. Highly recommend their services.

Shel Fairservice

Brad is my chiropractor. Has been for years since 2018 when i was in a MVA he took care of that but as my back pain worsened he told me to see my dr. Had xrays then a MRI to find out i had a severe form of splondylothisis. Brad continued with me right up until that wouldn't benefit me. 5 days ago i finally got decompression surgery with instrumentation. Without Brad i would not be on the road to recovery. The entire team i trust at the Huronia clinic in Barrie. They treated my husbands tennis elbow and my sons sprain to get him back on the basketball court. These guys are amazing and focus on the whole body and mindy philosophy without robbing you blind. I will be seeing seeing you soon for my rehab.

derek walton

I had my first visit Thursday May 2nd with Matt and it was first class treatment all the way .........see you next week!!

Mike Clark

This facility continues to extend “over the top” services. From fast, efficient, and COURTEOUS check in, to your actual meeting with knowledgeable, friendly physiotherapists, and ending with completion of your visits at the front desk with the very friendly, helpful ladies, this is a very pleasurable experience

Bruce Cumming

Had a great experience with Benson which help be recover quickly and get back to normal.

Melanie Cole

Facilities are very clean and adhere to COVID Protocols. Staff are very friendly and very easy and efficient to book appointments. Have had to use Massage therapy for relaxation and treatment of muscle and joint pain, Chiropractic Services for pulled muscles and back pain, and The Physiotherapists for an injured shoulder. I found all treatments extremely helpful as well as the take home advice for self treatment. Overall I highly recommend these services.

Julie Long

Extremely professional, clean and excellent care. Highly recommended.

Jane Gray

Sports Medicine is a great place and would definitely recommend it. This review is mainly for Anik Sarkar (Physio). My daughter was in a car accident and we very lucky to have been recommended to Sports Medicine. Anik has been amazing in her recovery so far, he takes his time to listen and explain things. He is always on time and never rushes. A pleasure to deal with and very professional. The admin staff have been very helpful too and made the process very easy, helping with the Car Insurance paperwork etc.. Thank You Sports Medicine :)

Dave Jenns

I’ve been visiting Sports Medicine on Huronia Rd for a while and seeing Raphael. His incredible knowledge and extremely supportive attitude and approach have made my Physiotherapy enjoyable and successful. I highly recommend using him!

Ann Long

Went to Sports Medicine on Huronia and had a massage with Barclays. He was very professional and my pain decreased after the visit. I would highly recommend him.

Liliana lupo

I appreciate all the measures put in place for our protection during these times. Appointments are being spaced so there are minimal people in the waiting area. I seen the immediate cleaning of all areas being used. The physiotherapists are very informative and they make sure you understand why they are doing what they do to you. I have been a client for various injuries in the past. I have experienced 6 or 7 different therapists and have never had a reason to complain about a negative experience.

Kaila Hutchinson

You're just a number. They don't spend quality time with you. They are working with at least two clients at a time. Not very professional. I went to concepts and movement and it was like night and day

Gerald Irwin

Thanks to the knowledge and experience of the team at sports medicine and m2m, I am greatly benefiting from my rehab program.

Mirela Cohan

Fantastic experience . They worked together as a team towards my recovery after my motor vehicle accident. All respect to Brian Carroll, Patrick Greig, Adam Roberts, Julie Lamontagne and loveky Dasha.

S. Loughran

Our family has been long time patients of Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Centre - Eagle Ridge for both maintenance and recovery services. We have always been impressed with the level of care from the paramedical practitioners and the front desk staff. We have received exceptional service from Dr. Avik Sarkar related to concussion protocol and treatment, from Brian Carroll related to physiotherapy and osteopathy, and from Barclay Peltier regarding active release and massage therapy. All three of these practitioners have always gone above and beyond in terms of treatment and making our family members feel heard during the recovery and treatment process. We feel very fortunate to have been cared for and treated by such high level professionals. Thank you to all the staff at Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Centre - Eagle Ridge.

Amanda K

After my car accident I needed some physical help.The staff is amazing. They are caring and kind. At this place I felt welcome and comfortable. They walked me through everything they were doing and why.

Jeff That Guy

Years and years of back pain and could never find the answer, until coming here. The staff are amazing, patient and find a solution specific to you rather then the same old treatment. Craig Dow’s hands are the reason I can still be active in life. I really appreciate everything you do for me.
