What Patients Are Saying

5.0(130)

I honestly can’t say enough good things about JF and Move Med Physio. When I first started working with JF, I could barely run 4–6 km because of ongoing ankle issues. We worked through those, got my ankle to a place where I could actually run consistently again, and then, of course, my old IT band issues decided to make an appearance! Instead of giving up or just telling me to stop running, JF worked with me through each setback, helped me understand what was going on, and gave me the tools and exercises I needed to keep progressing. Fast forward to today… I just completed a half marathon! Something that honestly felt pretty far out of reach when we started. Not only did I finish it, but I finished with a time I’m incredibly proud of. I’m so grateful for the knowledge, patience, encouragement, and support JF has given me throughout this process. If you’re dealing with an injury or trying to get back to doing something you love, I would absolutely recommend Move Med Physio. I truly don’t think I would have made it to that finish line without JF!

If you are a runner (or even just needing a fantastic physiotherapist), MoveMed is definitely the place for you. I sought them out specifically for a running-related injury, but have since also worked with them for post-accident rehabilitation. I have worked specifically with Sydney, who is incredibly knowledgeable and thorough with her assessments, and the treatment she provides has significantly improved my injuries. She is detailed and prompt in her follow-ups, and really tailors the treatment to my needs. Their entire team is so kind, personable, and welcoming, and they do not hesitate to go the extra step to ensure their clients needs are met. I cannot recommend them (and Sydney specifically) enough!!

I have cycled past MoveMed many times but had never been inside. Although I exercise and stretch regularly and am usually very mindful of my physical limits, a recent high volume of heavy landscaping tasks completed within a short timeframe caused me to overuse my back to a breaking point of severe pain. I knew I needed professional help. Through some online research, I discovered that the physiotherapists at MoveMed here are not just runners, but ultra-runners. As someone who just completed my first marathon last September and built a consistent running habit, this was incredibly inspiring to me. My experience started with a phone call with Elias. Thanks to his direct and efficient Q&A, I smoothly secured my appointment. During my initial assessment, the physiotherapist Sydney was exceptionally patient, listening to my story and carefully observing as I demonstrated the specific movements that triggered my pain. thorough movement tests and even pulled up anatomical muscle charts at my request, helping me visualize exactly which part of my lower back was strained. The entire process was seamless and reassuring. The name "MoveMed" is brilliant—movement truly is the best medicine. I also know the team is currently working hard to partner with WCB, and I wish them all the best with that process.

Bea is amazing and so knowledgeable with physio, pelvic floor and exercise. I was able to stay active through pregnancy and she helped me return to running and exercise starting 5 weeks postpartum. It was so unbelievably helpful, would highly recommend for anyone who is active and/or seeking pelvic floor support.

Victoria Okrusko

As a new runner, I sought support for a minor injury. Bea was an excellent resource for recovery, ongoing prevention, and helped me with a training plan to successfully complete my first half marathon. The space is great, appointments run on time and all of the staff are friendly and helpful.
