Physio Link, Walkers Line, Burlington June10/25
By Norman

I am not really into giving references for services rendered but I felt that this was one time I should.

I found that Physio Link, Walkers Line, Burlington, provided a professional, positive support and very friendly caring environment.

It always provides great comfort and assurance when the initial contact with a business on being greeted by a pleasant receptionist, Manisha, who also forms part of the therapy team.

The therapists gave comfort to my therapy process by stating action to be taken and what each action during the process was intended to achieve for a successful resolution to one aspect of my injury within the scope of their care to be provided. I felt that having one therapist overseeing my care from one session to the next was reassuring for a focused game plan and follow through towards recovery. A special thanks to Helna for amazing support.

My therapy sessions started on time with my therapist providing a status update on noted physical changes and then providing modifications to the therapy in house and for me to do at home to help in my recovery. The therapist in each session provided specific instructions to support staff who utilized technology as part of the therapy each time.

I would like gratefully thank the staff of Physio Link for their personalized and dedicated effort for moving me forward on one part of my full recovery.

5 STARS Physio!!! I had my knee replaced and after 5 months of rehab somewhere else, I was not where I thought I should be. Mandeep and Helna worked my knee and within a couple of weeks of Physio, I was 100% better. They did Magic with my wife last year and I can say they did the same Magic with me this year! You will not be disappointed and I only wished I had gone to them sooner. Thank You Mandeep and Helna.

This is not an appreciation post, but a heartfelt gratitude. Mandeep and her team of trained and dedicated professionals provided the best care and physio-therapy for my back issues. From being able to do nothing to a pain-free normal, the process of recovery was well monitored and charted. I could get my appointments promptly and the therapy sessions were regular and effective. Mandeep is an extremely knowledgeable physiotherapist and a thorough professional who will not only chart the sessions as required but will guide you to recovery methodically but cautiously. I totally recommend her!

Mandeep and the staff at the Walkers Line Clinic were very helpful with me recovering with physio. They took me through appropriate exercises and made each visit very pleasant and i felt better a very quick time.
My intro to the clinic and booking appt's and all processes were very easy and communication was excellent.
I highly recommend PhysioLinks Rehab if you are in need of physio and they also have Chiropractic and Massage options available as well.

These guys keep me from falling apart. Subject to availability, you might see different physios but they are collaborative in their patient care, very attentive, and no judgement when you start snoring when you are hooked up to the IFC.
