EXCELLENT Based on 307 reviews Posted on Google Stella JohnstonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would highly recommend Gary at excel physiotherapy.Posted on Google David PerryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Three of our clan have recently received treatment and advice from Gary. His service is absolutely outstanding and we would most certainly, and have, recommended him.Posted on Google John TylerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having had back problems for over 30 years, I went to Gary several years ago in chronic pain. As well as relieving the pain, he analysed what may be causing reoccurrences and recommended ongoing exercises, which has led to a long-term improvement. Gary has literally got me back on my feet again and I would recommend him for his knowledge and professionalism.Posted on Google David KilmartinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Several sessions with Gary and hey presto my plantar fasciitis is sooooo much better, I had tried other treatments before and no improvement, Gary sorted it. Would recommend Gary and his teamPosted on Google Emily RobertsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michelle was absolutely amazing! She was extremely thorough and informative. Would definitely recommend to anyone!Posted on Google daniel moodieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had to rehabilitate my leg following surgery for a broken heel that left me with 3 screws in my foot and no load bearing for 6 weeks. Gary was excellent. The physiotherapy sessions and exercises reduced my recovery time drastically. He understood immediately where my rehab was at and how hard we could push things. It really was a tailored response to what was required. The exercises while hard were fun which made doing them easier. While progress felt slow at first this just reinforced the extent of the surgery and the effort required. And it wasn’t long before I was back on my feet and rock climbing again. I can’t recommend Excel highly enough.Posted on Google Rebecca NewmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Gary highly enough. He has been my physiotherapist for nearly seven years and has successfully treated a variety of issues during that time. His knowledge and expertise are exceptional, and he always takes the time to thoroughly assess the problem, explain the treatment plan, and ensure I understand what is causing the issue. What really sets Gary apart is not only his extensive knowledge and skill, but also his genuine care for his patients. He is approachable, professional, and an all-round great guy who immediately puts you at ease. If you’re looking for a physiotherapist who is highly experienced, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping you get the best outcome, then Gary is the guy to see.Posted on Google Martin HardwickeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve seen Gary on a number of occasions and each course of treatment has been successful. It’s a ‘no fuss’, honest assessment and treatment style that works. I’ve recently seen a chiropractor who basically wanted me to enter a financial agreement for an 18 session course of treatment. None of this with Gary. Problem solved and told “you’re good, no more appointments needed”. The receptionists are lovely and very welcoming to all. I would highly recommend.Posted on Google Steve YoudThomasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son has just finished a course of treatment at Excel and, as ever, the care was excellent. Lots of hands-on treatment but also plenty of advice, guidance and a practical exercise plan that relatively quickly had my son back to full strength, with some good guidance for the future. Would recommend going to Excel to anyone who might need their support.Posted on Google Maree BrewsterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I have seen Gary on a few occasions now and have both benefited from Gary’s expertise He is not only friendly and welcoming but he is thorough and so knowledgeable I have been treated in the past for back/hip and knee issues. I was given various exercises to do and can happily say, I am pain free! I would highly recommend Excel Physiotherapy, as Gary , with his extensive knowledge, will get to the bottom of your problems!
