Reviews of Lifemark Sport Saint Mary's (Psychologist)

Thomas Ashton

On the back of a recommendation from a colleague I hobbled in to Lifemark with a dodgy knee and I ended up running a marathon. Leanne, Lindsey, Chuck and the rest of the team were instrumental in getting me back into regular exercise, and then helping me exceed what I thought I would be able to accomplish in running. My knee would flair up and become very uncomfortable after running 5km, but through the work they did and the advice they gave me I was able to start racking up the kilometers. They are a great team that combines energy and motivation with a personal approach to get the best out of your body. Highly recommended.

Lysa Appleton

Excellent staff, service and care. I appreciate their holistic approach to wellness and their dedication to patient health.

Ann McCormack

I'm so happy I found this centre. From the excellent front desk service by Vera to the amazing team, it is where I will recommend others seeking physio and other treatments to go. Just prior to the pandemic, I met Dr. Rosie Mullins, who is the doctor on staff there, for a rotator cuff tear injury. Initially, I started with virtual physiotherapy sessions with Leanne Huck and even virtually, it still exceeded my past experiences with physiotherapy. I met Leanne for the first time in person last week and she is simply amazing, skilled, energetic and motivating. In this clinic, they work interactively and I met Chad for my exercise session. He promptly followed up the session with an email outlining the specific exercises to do at home between sessions. All the exercises have a visual/video component. Leanne recommended her co-worker Patrick Thompson to try a session to treat vertigo and he is another gem on this dream team.

Rob Hiscock

Great friendly staff.

Nicole Mauger

Just wanted to say that I would not of been able to continue running if it wasn't for Leanne Huck's care and attention. She made sure that I was getting the right treatments at the right times. I owe my love of running to her and to be able to continue with it on a daily basis pain free is fantastic. Leanne Huck you are the greatest, thank you for everything. I would never think of getting treatment anywhere else and will highly recommend her and her knowledge of how to treat injuries to anyone.

Jen Clark

Dr Chuck is the best chiropractor around. Competent and friendly. Will continue to see him and only him.

Ken Meade

In great hands with Leanne and Chad, made a speedy recovery on a calf muscle tear!

From the customer service (Vera you rock!!) to the treatment to the "see you next time" the LifeMark location at SMU is doing it RIGHT! Leanne and Chad (Physio), Chuck (Chiro) and Monica (Massage) are EXPERIENCED, PROFESSIONAL, FUNNY AF and truly care about your well-being, best interest and function as a human. I trust their judgement and appreciate their care as practitioners.

Monica is incredible. She has helped me through a car accident, sports injuries and post-pregnancy pains! I never feel as much pain relief as I do when I see her. She knows her stuff and is great at helping you learn how to help yourself in between visits. There is no one like her.

Nicole Ford

Nicole Blanchard Segal

Excellent staff and service! I've been seeing Leanne for a couple years now, originally for chronic neck/should pain due to tension. I continue to see her for regular maintenance with dry needling (I'm hooked!), and of course any other injuries that have popped up she's treated me for. She's very thorough and you can tell she cares deeply about her work. She'll always try to get you in as quickly as she can when you need to be seen. She's also very energetic, and pleasant which makes for a great experience during the appointment.

Erin Tancock

I started seeing Leanne on the recommendation of multiple people and was not disappointed. She is friendly, insanely smart and knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile for you. Don’t walk, run - her schedule fills up fast!

Daniel AJ Sokolov

Dr. Dauphinee is the best chiropractor I've ever had, hands down. The front desk staff is great, too.

Ryan Brogan

Highly recommend Monica for massage therapy. She is highly educated in her field, easy to talk to and made me feel very comfortable for my pre-natal massages. Front desk staff, Vera and Kale, are both great too!

Teon Alexander-Amour

Got a chance to work with massage therapist Caleigh Robertson and AT Kurt Stevenson throughout the football season, always put a smile on my face and got me right before and after games. I would highly reccomend this clinic to anybody.

Annie Macintosh

I love it there! After having to find a new place to get massage therapy I am so happy with the service I get. The staff are so welcoming and always make sure you have a good experience. I have been seeing Caleigh Robertson for over a year now and she's amazing, I've definitely seen improvement and can always count on her to make my shoulder feel better!

Chas Smith

Great clinic! For physiotherapy I recommend Leanne

Paige Lana

I first came to Patrick for my concussions, now every time I have an injury I come back. Very smart, kind and patient. Everything you want in a physio. I always trust his advice 100% because I know he is putting a lot of thought and even research into his decision about what is best. You never feel like he is just going through the motions.

Ryan Wilson

Leanne and team are phenomenal — extremely knowledgeable, genuinely invested, and focused on delivering results.

Zorica Kelly Markovich

Best chiropractor I have ever had, hands down! SMU Lifemark has a friendly and accommodating staff and the facility is bright and clean.

Cory Pye

Great place for physio.

Ben Brown

I have worked with Monica since fall of 2013 for the majority of my time as a wheelchair racer and she has kept me injury free. Monica has made me functionable as possible and made feel way better then I was pre-treatment sessions. Thanks for everything Monica!

Shelley Tessier

Great friendly staff!

Leanne Strathdee

Leanne Huck is an excellent physio therapist. She does a thorough assessment of your injuries, and takes the time to listen to you about the pain and discomfort you experience. She is highly personal, intelligent, and exceptionally knowledgeable, particularly for sports related injuries. Her aim is to get your injury healed, and she has great suggestions for modifications to keep you active while recovering. Additionally, she is community minded, a star athlete and dedicated to community building through volunteerism. I highly recommend Leanne Huck.

Ally Fiola

Highly recommended!! Fantastic people and treatments.

Brianne Perrier

The staff here are so amazing! I've worked with physiotherapists, kinesiologists, massage therapists and chiropractors here and they are all very passionate and knowledgeable about their specialties.

Xander Budnick

After my accident and over the last 8 months I had seen many doctors and a few other physiotherapists in an attempt to understanding my injury. I felt defeated and broken until I met the Physiotherapist Leanne. Her expertise along with her compassion was the turning point for my recovery. Compassion is to often overlooked in these fields and for me it was the main contributor to a healthy and happy recovery. Leanne helped me get over my anxieties and really re sparked my confidence. Back at it and feeling damn good!!

Lois Larson

Shawn's massages are amazing. I always leave feeling so much better. And Vera is always so welcoming and helpful. Thanks all!

Keltie O'Connor

BEST RECEPTIONIST AND CHIROPRACTOR EVER! Chuck is beyond amazing and I recommend him to every single person I know. Friendly, professional, knowledgable, and always has a giant smile on his face.

Eli Penk

Patrick is God sent.... He is dealing with my cuncussion and I can only say good things about the guy at reception to Laura the back and neck physio....

Kate Lightstone / Indigo Instinct

AMAZING treatment and staff here!! Have gone to lifemark for physio, dry needling, acupuncture, rehab and RMT -- Leanne (physio,dry needling, rehab etc) and Monica (RMT) are top in their field. Leanne is an amazing professional and a deep listenerwho really knows her stuff. Monica is one of the most talented RMTs i know and is worth driving in from Cow Bay to see every time. She os an intuitive healer without realizing it. The staff at this location are also wonderful - from admin to all the specialists. Highly reccommend.

Leena Roy Chowdhury

Awesome service and experience. If you want to get back on your feet real fast, this should be your destination.

Lydia M

Lifemark at SMU is the best one by far. Staff are cheerful and kind. See Leanne Huckley- not only will she cheer up your day but she will also fix your problems! I'm so grateful for them.

Trackforlife

As a high performance varsity athlete, I am more than confidant to make the claim that this is the best clinic in Atlantic Canada. Kale, Leanne and the rest of the staff are an amazing group of professionals who have helped me reach my goals whether it is recovering from injuries or preparing to compete at the national level. The staff caters from weekend warrior, to a varsity athlete, to a national champion. You can’t go wrong here!

Mario M

I have been seeing Dr. Chuck Dauphnee for a few years now. He is the best one out there. He has a very distinctive approach of understanding your body and not generalizing, he gets to the root cause of the issue and treats it appropriately, then he will inform of ways to mitigate any future issues. He is super nice and welcoming, and gives off a good sense of security. I see him now on a regular basis for maintenance and I highly recommend him as a chiropractor.

Juanita and Andrew Drayson

Best clinic in Halifax! Professional staff from the front desk to the physiotherapist (Laura pulled me through a horrible injury). Would highly recommend them to anyone needing help recovering.

David Fiore

I moved to Halifax a couple years ago and needed to find a new chiropractor and massage therapist and luckily through word of mouth I found Lifemark. I get a lot of neck and back stiffness from my job and Chuck for chiro sets me straight every time (pun intended). And I highly recommend Shawn for massage therapy too. Between both those guys I always feel great afterward. They’re both super nice people who really know what they’re doing and are just great at their respective jobs. Highly recommend them and Lifemark if you’re looking for a new place.

ryan foster

Helping me with post operation shoulder rehab very excellent staff and programs.

Rod Winters

As an older athlete I very please with the attention I get. Leanne keeps me running...

Robert Brownell

This practice is more about servicing the patient than it is about making money. The professionals in the clinic actually spend time with you!!! It's not that typical six patient circuit that occurs in most physiotherapy clinics.

Kristen Grant

The team here is wonderful! Kale, Vera and Leanne always make me feel so welcome and I always leave there better than when I went in! Can't wait for my next dry needling session.

Cheryl Walsh

I made a call to inquire about the new procedures used now for concussions. My husband experienced concussions several years ago and Patrick’s way of dealing with them has intrigued my knowledge of the science of our bodies as a Phys Ed teacher. I am very interested in these new ideas and Patrick also came highly recommended. I was further delighted to talk to the amazing lady at the desk whom I must say is a superlative choice to meet the public. Sadly I forgot her name but she made me feel extremely good after chatting with her for a few minutes. Excellent choice for the face of the company. Thank you Lifemark, you’ve got excellent choices in having both of these individual s representing your company. I’ll will be telling people of my experience. Positive, professional and truly caring and compassionate Cheryl Walsh PS. That lovely lady is Vera. And her personal touch is greatly appreciated. All the best everyone. Stay safe

tammy Woodard

I needed a massage and went to see Ruby Anne. She was wonderful and I left the massage feeling relaxed and much better. She provided a calming environment and was able to work on my shoulders and get get the stress out. Awesome!

Karley Perrin

Fantastic clinic, especially for concussion recovery

Tony Via

Excellent staff, very friendly and approachable.

liam hatton

After getting countless injuries Shawn and Chuck know how to get me moving again and again

Connor McLellan

I've been coming here for treatment ranging from shoulder issues to back pain for over 2 years now. The treatment received from all of the staff ranging from the physiotherapists to the chiropractor has been phenomenal. The entire staff team is incredibly friendly and supportive. They provide a wide range of treatments (I've received dry needling, cupping, adjustments, theragun to full mobility routines.) I would without a word of lie be a broken mess without them instead I've been able to progress in my sport without major issues stopping me! Could not recommend anyone else than this clinic

Trudy Van Rooyen

Awesome receptionist, and Leanna is great she is very helpful and does awesome job and she gets back on your feet and gets you back to your normally routine.

Jared Smith

Shawn is the best masseuse I've had work on all my sports injuries. He is very knowledgeable when it come to the root cause of a injuries/pain. Working the injured area and also providing tips on how to prevent/rehab the area. Simply the Best!!

Morgan Geremia

Staff is friendly and personable! I started treatment with a lot of back pain, caused by a car accident, and I can honestly say that after treatment my back has never felt better. The physiotherapists at this clinic really know what they are doing! 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

Bruce Laybolt

Amazing staff they are so caring. they do thier best to always fit you in... vera and sarah on the front desk always a pleasure to see them.. I find my self going in early just to talk to them. Leanne she is one of a kind. the work she does with dry needling I think she has helped me get over my fear of needles. eric is great havent had alot of interaction with him but when I do she is nice to work with when he takes you into the gym he make you feel smart ????.. I always enjoy my time and recommend anyone to go in. Caleigh is amazing she always makes you feel relaxed and let's you pick music to listen to. I always love having conversations with her it's like getting a message and therapy all at the same time. I am here cause of a second car accident that happend is Oct and I called and they fit me in the day of the accident. I would never go anywhere else.

Alexandra Vautour

Best clinic in Halifax! I've been going for 2 years following an MVA and have always had a positive experience. The staff are always friendly and welcoming and I couldn't recommend a better team of professionals to look after your health and healing!

Erna Dean Westhaver

I love the staff at LifeMark St Mary's Unv. They are friendly, great professionals & I always leave with a good feeling. Look forward to my next visit.

Gary Dukeshire

Always greeted professionally by the front staff Vera and Kale. Leanne Huck is a great physiotherapist who truly cares about her patients.

Cindy MacNeill

Leanne Huck is who you want to see for physio! She is very professional, patient and passionate about helping her clients. She cares about making sure the client is feeling better and making progress in their recovery. I have various injuries and a slightly complicated medical history and she's been nothing but encouraging and supportive throughout all my treatment with the continued goal of keeping me running/moving without pain. I'm very thankful to her for all her help. The rest of the staff there are so welcoming as well. Worth every penny and the commute through traffic :)

adam welsh

Let me start by saying, I'm an athlete that has had several trips to Physio thru the years with zero success. That being said, I have been amazed at how good Leanne Huck has been. I had a severly damaged forearm that she was able to fix it using treatments I've never seen before. If anyone is a none believer of physiotherapy then please do yourself a favor and go see Leanne Huck at Lifemark, she is amazing!!????????

Chris Nolan

total pros. Great service. Highly recommend them.

Brian Hope

Caleigh Robertson has been fantastic. Her expertise and many different types of massage therapy treatments keep me feeling great and performing at the level I need to. If you are looking for massage therapy, make sure to book with her!

Dennis Rumsby

Courtney Barbour

The service and quality of care that Lifemark Sport provides is outstanding. It is always easy to book an appointment with them and they have hours to suit busy schedules.

This place is amazing! I have had the good fortune to be a client of Chuck for Chiro, Lauren for Physio and Shawn for Massage. They all work together as an amazing team and my body thanks them for it!!

alisha lawson

I’ve been going there for over a year now and kale, Leanne, caleigh and the rest of the staff are all outstanding. They significantly improve my day as well as my overall lifestyle. You couldn’t find a better place, and I wouldn’t go anywheres else.

Jordan McMullin

The staff at Lifemark Sport Saint Mary's are incredibly kind and helpful. There's no where else I would go for physiotherapy.

Jesse Alexander

Shawn is the absolute best ! Number one go to for your next massage in Halifax

Football Player

Caleigh Robertson was a great addition to lifemark, she really improved my hip mobility and kept me loose for football games. She takes good care of her clients, she’s really good with her technique and has a real love for her job I recommend her for massages as she gives it her all, book with Caleigh if your looking to get a massage

Cher L

I have been always had a positive experience with the staff at this clinic including sessions with RMT Shawn Stone and Chiropractor Dr. Chuck Dauphinee.

Damone Blackman

I've been going to this place for many years since 2009 exact, and they have taken very good care of me. They have gone above and beyond to help me in my football career to be better and healthy. They also have great staff who don't care about the numbers but of you as whole. Great staff especially if you're a high level athlete looking for proper treatment.

Sheila Crowley

I have been a client at Lifemark for approximately two years, and see Dr. Chuck Dauphinee (chiro) and Shawn Stone (massage) on a regular basis. To say you are in “good hands” is an understatement. Shawn and Chuck approach their work, and their relationships with clients, with intense empathy. They listen - not only to their clients’ expressed needs, but to the needs of their bodies, providing intuitive, skillful treatment with unmatched expertise and professionalism. Chuck and Shawn possess undeniable passion and enthusiasm for their vocations, truly distinguishing them in their respective fields. (Tip - book a set of appointments in advance, as their schedules fill up quickly!).

Beth Hamilton

Monica has been an absolutely amazing massage therapist to me for many years. She's considerate, remembers the details, is constantly learning and works holistically with me to ensure that I am getting the best care. Leanne is also an outstanding physiotherapist and is always working to ensure that I am able to compete healthily. She clearly loves her job and it shows in her work. I genuinely look forward to coming into the clinic to see them. Also Vera is an outstanding receptionist and her warm & cheery demeanor makes it an actual pleasure to sit in their waiting room. The folks at this clinic really make it what it is and I can't say enough good things about them!

Patrick Carroll

From the front line staff to the therapists, they are all top notch. I’ve seen a number of different therapists here and each and everyone provide exceptional care for their clients. Shout outs to Vera Ford, Leanne Huck, Chuck Dauphinee, and Monica Carroll but everyone is amazing

Angelika Torres

Lifemark SMU consists of a very friendly and welcoming team, right from the reception staff to Caleigh Robertson, my massage therapist, as well as to Dr. Chuck Dauphinee, my Chiropractor. Caleigh’s deep tissue massage is deep but gentle and her easy-going and chatting away attitude brings additional relaxation. Love her. Chuck makes you laugh. He is not only great at reading your body structure, he sees through other areas of your life as well. Love his laugh. I very much enjoy going to Lifemark SMU for my appointments. What I get are effective treatments and a good laugh.

Hope Hampton

Great people

Bruce Macdonald

Great bunch,very professioal,

John Kirk

This was my second trip here for Physio--last year was lower back, and this time, shoulder. On both occasions the combination of having a terrific physiotherapist (Leanne, back, and Dan, shoulder) and a superb trainer (Chad) was extremely successful. Great treatment, supported by great exercise programme (including link with videos). I highly recommend the folks here--professional, supportive, and understanding.

Jonathan Peverill

Highly recommended!

Theresa Connors

My name is Theresa Connors and am a senior. I had a very bad attack of vertigo. I did not know what to do until a friend of mine told me about Lifemark. I called and got an appointment right away with Patrick Thompson. He was very nice and very empathetic to my condition. He was there for me whenever I needed him. His technique is great, I was no longer scared and knew he would make me better. The exercises he gave me to do helped me to function while we worked on getting me better. I am now no longer getting dizzy but I know I can call or text him if it happens again. Lifemark is very fortunate to have such a great physiotherapist.

Melissa McLeish

Leanne Huck is the best Physio out there! She’s incredibly passionate about caring for each of her clients and is a world of knowledge when it comes to caring for an injury and preventing them from coming back. I’ve never had a Physio more invested in seeing me at my very best. Leanne helped me become a stronger, injury free runner and I could not have run a half marathon without her.
