I had a great experience at Lakeside Health and Sport. My physiotherapy assessment with Saurav Roy was excellent. I went in with a right-hand issue and couldn’t lift weights properly, and he made noticeable progress in just one session. I also had a 60-minute massage with Jordan Trivino, who was very professional and focused exactly on the tight areas. I left feeling much better. Highly recommend both!

Sharan Sandhanwalia PT was extremely knowledgeable as well as easy to deal with. Maria in reception is also friendly and helpful. I feel fortunate to have such excellent help.

What a great experience with Dr. Saurav, after trying three different Phisio clinics, I’m happy to have landed something so close to home where Mary at the front desk takes care of me like I’m family and Dr. Saurav treats my Phisio needs with impeccable detail, where he has treated and found areas of concern that other do not even look at. From the initial consultation to only my second appointment I feel a difference and have hope that I’ll be able to run my next marathon in the not to distant future!! Thank you to all the staff at Lakeside Physiotherapy!!

Renee is an exceptional massage therapist who truly understands the body and how to target points of relief. I came in with an injury, and I already feel much better after just one session. Highly recommend her!

Jane So is the most attentive physiotherapist I’ve ever been too! She asked lots of questions and manipulated my leg and sore knee in many ways and asked for feedback to understand the underlying cause of my pain. Well, I had been suffering for weeks, and within days of following the exercises and other instructions I felt much better.
