Review from Carmella A.
Toronto, ON
5/18/2012
I've been going to AESM for several years (for various problems)and have had consistent exceptional treatment every visit. My physiotherapist is Lawrence who I as referred to by a work colleague (who also raves about him).
My first day at the clinic was a warm and welcoming one. The front desk staff Jolene and Christina were incredible. To top it off, Lawrence was professional and thorough in his examination with my shoulder. I had chronic shoulder pains for one year and had several therapist and chiros look at me. They didn't seem to get to the root problem and only treated my symptoms. My family doctor even explained to me (erroneously) that I had a rotator cuff tear according to my ultrasound. I then saw Lawrence who explained to me that my shoulder pain was coming from my neck. Within one assessment and treatment my shoulder felt 85% better (I never had that much relief from the previous therapists). After 3 weeks of physio my shoulder pain disappeared and with exercises from Lawrence, I now have full range of motion and am able to get back to all my physical activities and maintain the health of my shoulder.
I still attend for other injuries and Lawrence has been exceptional in his diagnosis and treatment of them all.
I highly recommend going to AESM and seeing Lawrence for all you physio needs. -
Review from Elaine K.

I am so impressed with the professionalism and the expertise of the people I have dealt with here.
I had an initial visit with Dr. Lum, who was really great and was able to assess me quickly and answer all my questions. He recommended that I see Kim for physiotherapy and their chiropodist (didn't remember his name) for orthotics (which I use anyway). My initial visit with both was great. Kim showed me some great stretches to sort out my problem, and the chiropodist walked me through the best solutions for me, and a bit of the insurance claims process.
I've had two sessions with Kim now, and I really feel that they are helping. She's great to work with, disarming and personable, which is helpful since her job requires pushing/pulling/kneading parts of my body, which would be pretty off-putting if she weren't so nice.
I would definitely recommend anybody to see the team here. Everyone is great, from the practitioners to the front desk staff. Plus, it's right across the street from St. Andrew station so getting here is easy.Listed in: Yelp 30-Day Challenge

Review from Grainne M.
Toronto, ON
I've been for a couple of sessions with my physio, Kim, since my last review. She has exceeded expectations!
My initial visit with her included consultation time and she did a focused assessment to further evaluate my issue. She was so friendly and interested. She is fantastic for any runners who want to get back on the road-she is a former elite distance runner! She did some soft tissue work which was weirdly perfect. She seemed to catch every single knot and trouble spot in my neck and shoulders. She has definitely done all this a million times before! She then gave me a couple of stretches to do. They're quick enough that I have no excuse not to do them but seem to be working.
When I went back I was already feeling better and hope to continue to improve. I have more sessions to do and a follow-up with Dr Lum to go but feel so glad I found this place! Everyone (from the reception staff to physios to Dr Lum) has been incredibly professional and friendly and they have managed to gain my trust and make me feel better. Lucky find!Listed in: Health and fitness (TO)
