Reviews of Collingwood Physiotherapy & Wellness (Physiotherapist)

I have been a patient of Collingwood Physio for a little over a year now. I was injured three times last year and they helped me get back to functioning normally. They continue to help me with ongoing therapy to strengthen my muscles and pain issues. I've worked with Keane, Earnest, Daisy and Robert. They're all very knowledgeable, professional and kind.

This location just wants to make money out of you. I didn't feel any care or they dont answer my questions. So disappointing.

I've been here twice, soon a third I think????, to deal with two completely separate issues. The 1st issue, the WCB physicians couldn't solve. Keane did, and he helped me resolve the problem. The 2nd issue, my shoulder, was really bad, Keane and his team were instrumental in my recovery, to say the least. This clinic is for those that truly want to recover. The facility is small and uses more traditional tech that really works. Personally, the only place I consider for rehab

I go to Collingwood Physio every time I have an issue and it’s been great. It’s been over 10 years! Lately, I’ve been there to see physiotherapists Ernest and Keane. Both are excellent physiotherapists! I have been seeing Ernest for a TMJ issue as he specializes in TMJ and it’s been the only way I can get relieve. Keane is excellent with working on my back pain and is able to treat the pain precisely. The location is very clean and easy to book with appointments (online/in person/phone). I will be recommending this location to more friends!

The staff are amazingly friendly and welcoming. But, the size of the exersice area isnt much larger than a bedroom and may have up to six people in there at a time.

I was having some pain in my shoulder and after a couple sessions of acupuncture the pain was gone. Ernest is a very skilled therapist and the staff is very friendly. Thanks!!

I’ve been many times in Collingwood Physiotherapy. Ernest Chao is great! He has saved me many times and helped me to go back running safe and sound! Ernest is very knowledgeable and super friendly! Totally recommend!

I was looking for a physiotherapist because I had some mobility and pain concerns that I felt wasn't managed with RMT alone. I heard about Ernest at Collingwood Physiotherapy. Ernest consults the client and uses visuals to help the client understand where the muscles of concern may be. In addition to prescribing exercises, Ernest is also trained in acupuncture. I was a little nervous at first but the acupuncture was helpful in relieving my pain. I would definitely recommend Ernest. The clinic is also very clean with COVID-19 protocols in place.

Very kind people and great professionals. I've been treating my knee and back pain for the last 2 months with Ernest and I felt a positive result since the first session.

Don't let the location and exterior fool you: this is a clean and professional environment. I went here to get my shoulder treated and was impressed with the care and attention that my physiotherapist, Keane, took to lead me back to rehabilitation. I never felt taken advantage of financially (I wasn't covered due to lack of extended health) and thought their pricing was quite fair. I would not hesitate to come back here for any future ailments

I saw Ernest for a bike fit back in November 2021. Several months later I've noticed - 1) No more pain on the side of my knee 2) Quads not as tight 3) No more numbness on my hands/sit bones on 1+ hour rides Prior to seeing Ernest for a bike fit - most of my bike fitting experience was from 1) DIY YouTube vids 2) iPhone apps. After having a bike fit with Ernest I would HIGHLY recommend seeing a professional, which made a world of difference. Ernest is kind, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable. He's easy to talk to and addressed any questions I had that came up during my bike fit. During the intial assessment he identified a leg length discrepancy, which later turned out to be the source of my knee pain. To address the length length discrepancy he placed a series of shims under my cycling cleat, which helped keep my knee more in line when pedaling. He also helped me make a series of saddle adjustments which helped me take the load off of my quads and pedal more efficiently. Added bonus - he's a cyclist himself so he's got some good recommendations on saddles/handlebars/etc. based on your cycling goals.

Ernest Chão was my physio and, helped me to recovery my back after a got injured at work. He is extremely knowledgeable and attentive and, he made a significant difference in my back. He is very friendly, but also very professional. I would recommend him any time.

Prompt and quality client service

Last Saturday, I brought my teenage daughter to this clinic, because they had an immediate opening and it was very accessible for us. It was our first time here. We received a friendly welcome from the receptionist, Ria, who was very efficient and professional and processed our paperwork quickly. Almost immediately, my daughter was seen by Daisy for a physiotherapy session for a sprained ankle. No time was wasted and, after understanding the nature of the injury, Daisy offered a set of exercises, complete with explanations of how the bones and muscles work together. She gave recommendations for my daughter to avoid future injury and, kindly, listened and answered all of our questions. We were both impressed about this, otherwise, hard to notice clinic on Kingsway, which has offered a higher caliber of services than the larger ones, such as Total Therapy and Fortius Sports Medicine. I am letting my friends know about this little gem, hidden in an old building between other unimpressive business signs. This will, certainly, be the place we will continue to seek when we need these type of services. Thank you, Collingwood Physiotherapy and Wellness!

Friendly staff and a very clean, and welcoming facility. I have come here for three separate injuries over the years and will return if need be. A very trustworthy location.

Isabella Mori

Everybody there is awesome. I wish my doctors and dentist were as knowledgeable, interested, friendly and all around patient-centered as these people.

I was in two accidents back in May and needed physiotherapy treatment for my injuries and I happen to stumble across Collingwood Physiotherapy & Wellness. Pretty limited reviews for this location so thought I'd just take a chance considering they're close to my home. I've mostly dealt with Michael and Elsa and they're both excellent at their jobs. Michael is extremely detail oriented and the one aspect I appreciate most about his work ethic is his passion and dedication to helping his clients' heal. Michael is very knowledgeable and can explain medical terminology in layman terms. He'd also go into great detail on explaining why he's working on a particular muscle/area to help relieve tension on the injured region. On top of helping clients heal, Michael has a genuinely outgoing personality and is able to connect to clients on a personal level. Elsa is also very knowledgeable and effective at her job. She's patient with my needs, willingly listens to my concerns, and will always offer her insight on how I can do things differently to improve my condition. I've dealt with Elsa more so on the strengthening aspect of my treatment, and her recommendations are equally as useful as Michael's. Elsa's approach is a bit more relaxed, but both physiotherapists are a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend both Michael and Elsa to anyone seeking physiotherapy treatment for their passion, work ethic, professionalism, relatable and outgoing personality, patience, and expertise.

I booked a bike fit with Ernest Chao and I came away very satisfied with the service I received. He was very thorough in the fine details that a proper bike fit requires.The bike feels great,my performance and power has increased. I would highly recommend Ernest for a bike fit.

Jeffrey Dy

Had my bike fit done with Ernest. Enjoyed the experience as he was patient, detailed, on-point and took time explaining things thoroughly. Didnt feel rushed at all. If your new to cycling or maybe just wanted to refresh your ride feel..i highly recommend giving Ernest a call. 5 Stars!

Do yourself a favor and book with Ernest Chao. I saw him initially for a bike fit, which was an overall great experience coming from a physio therapist. He came in on his day off on a Saturday morning to accommodate my schedule and also stayed later to help ensure I had everything fixed. I have several injuries that I continue to cope with but his attention to detail was very welcomed and wanted to ensure I was set up properly to function as close to pain free as possible. He is a one stop shop for many services of phyiso, bike fit, acupuncture, IMS and even orthotics.

Daljit Nahal

Everyone is very friendly and the facility is very clean. Ernest is very kind, polite, & amazing at what he does. He takes the time to listen to my concerns & provides helpful information. Ernest makes the most of our appointments & ensures that my concerns are addressed. I would highly recommend him to others!
