ALPHA Health Services - Best Physiotherapy Clinic Toronto

Charlotte's "We'll fix this" is so important to healing. All the therapists I have tried have been excellent. You cannot go wrong with Alpha.

I had an initial appointment with Leeanna recently. She was very professional and caring. Easy to talk to and gave me excellent advice. I would highly recommend Leeanna.

Received treatment from both Olivia and Daniel. Both have been excellent experiences. Very knowledgable at getting to the root cause of injury, explaining it, helping with recovery and providing exercises to help with rehabilitation. Appreciate the help.

I was seen by Daniel Krasner, MSc, PT.for about a month and a half. He was awesome. Daniel makes me good again. I was afflicted with severe pain in my left leg. I couldn't walk without pain. The exercises he suggested were perfect for me. I did all my exercises at home with the help online exercises that Daniel will send me every time I saw him. I really owes him big. The clinic was awesome. Everything was excellent. I would recommend the clinic to anyone who needs Physiotheraphy.
Thank you kindly,

After injuring my foot due to rolling it a several times due to work + a sport's injury, then learning that I had a fractured metatarsal and torn anterior ligament, I was in great fear as I had two upcoming trips where I was going to be on my feet. I was initially going to go see a friend whom is a physiotherapist, but he recommended that I find something closer to home so that I wouldn't aggravate my foot for traveling to see him. I stumbled across ALPHA, and am glad that I did. Daniel Krasner was truly professional and helpful in helping me gain strength, confidence and mobility in my foot so that I was comfortable going back to work as well as prepared for a work trip, then a trip to Italy! Truly appreciate how he emails videos and picture tutorials in doing at home exercises, as well as provided me with a resistance band. Would reccomend this clinic and him for anyone who is seeking a physiotherapist!

Louise is amazing! Down to earth, personable and friendly! After a few sessions with her, I no longer have shoulder pain. I highly recommend this place for physiotherapy.

When I got my concussion in September 2020, I spent a year trying to find the right professional to help me until I finally found Charlotte Anderson. My injury was mentally and physically debilitating. As a very active and social person, not being able to go for a short walk without experiencing symptoms was extremely challenging. After a year of seeing minimal improvements and trying everything possible to get better, I was referred to Charlotte by a friend. Up until this point, I had little confidence that I would make a full recovery. When I read the reviews of Charlotte helping people like me get back to living their full lives, I felt like there might be some hope after all. I genuinely hope that this review will give someone else who is struggling like I was that same level of hope and confidence.

Charlotte was the first professional to tell me I 100% would get back to all the things I loved doing. I wanted to get back to living a very active and social lifestyle, symptom free, and she never questioned or doubted it the entire time. She also took the time to really get to know me on a personal level to understand what other factors might be at play throughout my recovery. Charlotte really understands the role mental health has on physical health. She gave me detailed, weekly recovery plans based on my goals and was always available if I was having a hard time throughout the process.

It has been just over 2 years since my injury and I just returned from a 7 day trip where I completed a 2 day hiking trek without any symptoms. This time last year I wasn’t able to raise my heart rate for more than a minute or two without symptoms. I can safely say Charlotte has taken me through a full recovery and 100% back to my life - I couldn’t be more grateful.

For anyone who is experiencing post concussion syndrome, I hope this review gives you hope and confidence in your recovery journey. I cannot recommend Charlotte enough!

Daniel Krasner is a consummate professional, I'd highly recommend him to anyone. Hopefully I dont get hurt again but will be returning here if I do. Everyone I spoke to at Alpha was top-notch and extremely helpful. Easy 5 stars

I have recently started to see Louise Fonteyne and I can’t recommend her highly enough! She’s knowledgeable, upbeat, and kind. She pushes you, but also helps you listen to your body. I appreciated her thorough assessment at my first visit and her approach to treatment. Having neural symptoms for a long time is hard, but it’s nice to have a partner like Louise on your healing journey!

I have received great support from Leeanna Maher over the past year. She is incredibly knowledgable, and within weeks has helped me to resolve the injuries I came in with. I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you, Leeanna!

I visited Louise a few times during pregnancy because of tailbone pain and back pain, she is very professional and friendly and she showed me a few exercise and massage I can do at home. It is really helpful, her advices save me from desparation. So if you have any concern, do not hesitate to try, nobody deserves to suffer by him/herself, there is help you can reach for. I will definitely visit her again postpartum if I need to.

Ignoring several excellent physiotherapist recommendations from friends, I decided to continue my rehab at Alpha simply because of its location at Bridgepoint Health, where I received my initial physio, which was covered by OHIP. Kristen Blair worked with me to salvage some muscle following a cycling accident that left me with a bad fracture in my pelvis (acetabulum) and a broken collarbone. Recovery required a full hip replacement which I received in June. Prior to surgery, Kristen worked with me for several weeks, stretching my leg to relieve the damaged hip joint and working me through a regimen of exercises, both on equipment at Alpha and at home. Although small in stature, Kristen is incredibly fit and strong – a requirement to be able to effectively stretch the large muscles around the hip joint. Following surgery, my recovery was surprisingly fast. I did my part, but acknowledge Kristen for her good guidance and effective care. I was back on the bike seven weeks after surgery and my doctor/cyclist friends commented that the speed of my recovery was probably in the first percentile for my age group. It turns out that I now have an excellent physiotherapist recommendation: Kristen Blair at Alpha Health.

Louise is a great physiotherapist—positive attitude, listens well and very knowledgeable. She not only helped relieve my debilitating neck and shoulder pain, but gave me exercises to help prevent a reoccurrence (3 mths later, they’re still working). The clinic itself has a good vibe too — clean, bright, friendly and helpful staff at front desk, and appointments running like clockwork. Thank you, Louise and Alpha staff.

This is my second experience with Alpha, they are really good, the physiotherapist they have it they are really professional and kind they have lots of equipment for the exercises and rates are also good.

Daniel gave me such fantastic care! Can't say enough about the professionalism and quality of this great clinic!

Louise is excellent and I would highly recommend her! She was great at explaining things to me so that I could understand what was going on. She was friendly and encouraging throughout the entire process.

I've seen Leeanna for three different issues and she has always responded with expertise, enthusiasm, professionalism and patience. (She needed the patience to put up with my tacky shirts.) They have plenty of other great people - Louise and Colby and on and on. Don't miss an Alpha-tastic experience: run, don't walk! And if you can't walk, roll.

Charlotte Anderson has helped me in the past with my shoulder and neck and so I returned now with a problem with my hip. She is a wonderful physio therapist as a well as warm and friendly person. I very highly recommend her to anyone needing her help.

Outstanding experience! Felt I was listened to fully and the thoroughness of my evaluation really set my mind at ease. Louise is an excellent communicator and made sure to ask if I felt confident with the therapies. I'm almost grateful for my injury (almost) because it introduced me to such an excellent resource for my future health goals!

I have had problems in my pelvic area for over two years and have consulted doctors who could not offer any solutions. Finally I referred to
Leeanna Maher who know exactly why I was experiencing this issue and assured me that the problem could be solved in her very positive and friendly manner. Im so grateful to have found Leeanna

Leeanna is a great professional who takes total care of her patients! I recommend Leeanna to anyone who has pelvic floor concerns.

I began seeing Leanna for a weakened pelvic floor two years ago. Leanna has an amazing approach with her patients. She makes you feel relaxed, is a great listener and explains exercises in language that is easy to understand. She leads you through the exercises with positive comments and gives you clear instructions for the DIY exercises at home. She sends you away with written material as well as helpful diagrams. Between appts, she can be reached easily if you have questions. She went as far as to researching and recommending a paediatric therapist in Ottawa as my granddaughter was having issues. The quality of my life is so much better as a result of my sessions with Leanna. I totally avoided major surgery as a result!
Wonderful person and therapist!

I would highly recommend Leanna Maher as a wonderful therapist. She is the best combination of empathetic and professional I have seen in a long while. Her knowledge and listening skills shine through and I look forward to working with her very much.

I visited Alpha Health Services for the first time today. Leeanna, my physiotherapist was extremely empathetic, thorough and professional.
I have had a somewhat complicated recent health history so I particularly appreciated her patience and understanding.
I have no hesitation in highly recommending Alpha Health Services.

I was referred to Charlotte after surgery on my arm and severe nerve pain that she diagnosed (an issue that had been missed by two other physiotherapists) and has relieved all of my pain. Now, we are working to build strength before hip surgery. Charlotte is a wonderful person and a brilliant practitioner! As well, the staff at Alpha are terrific and highly efficient.

I'm a relatively new patient, I was referred here from Sunnybrook after an unfortunate kneecap dislocation. Olivia has been so friendly, compassionate and professional, I am already beginning to see tons of improvement in my mobility. Super thankful to have discovered Alpha physiotherapy.

Leena is a fantastic physiotherapist. She is helping me with my pelvic pain during my pregnancy! In two times that I see her, I could see great results! You can see her passion in her profession! Very professional as well!

Leeanna Maher, MSc. PT, HBSc.is the Pelvic Health Physiotherapist at ALPHA! I recommend everyone giving birth to see a pelvic health physiotherapist! Leeanna was kind and patient, she explained everything she was going to do and then again while she was doing it. I felt very safe and informed.

I highly recommend Leeanna (physiotherapist) and Karen (massage therapist) from Alpha Health Services. They are both excellent, knowledgeable and professional.

I have had such an incredible experience with Leeanna. I started seeing her after I had my baby for bladder issues and she was able to help me with so much more. I had been struggling with pelvic floor issues my whole life and didn’t know it could be treated. In a very short time I experienced significant improvement. If you have any pelvic pain or discomfort please reach out to Leeanna. She is very patient, kind and understanding.

Leeanna Maher is extremely knowledgeable and have learned a lot from her since meeting her in December.

I have been going to Leeanna and ALPHA Health for a few years now and I would recommend her to all my family, friends, and colleagues that live near by. Leeanna is extremely knowledgeable, professional and overall, every effective as a physiotherapist. For all the issues I have brought to her, she has managed to resolve all of them and allowed me to return to the activities I love. Leeanna balances hands on treatment with home exercises, she takes into consideration of my schedule and personality (read laziness) and ensures I have a home exercise program that's appropriate and I know what the progressions are. FIVE STARs!

I have been to ALPHA physio on several occasions and could not be happier. Leeanna Maher was my physio at the time. I left every appointment with a wealth of information of how I was doing and exercises I can do it improve. She is very available for questions, friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Leeanna and Alpha Physio.

I can’t say enough good things about Leeanna and the alpha clinic. The clinic is very well organized and friendly. Leeanna seems extremely well educated in her field and takes the time to walk you through the evidence behind her approach. She is also great at communicating outside the clinic, sending follow up notes with additional resources.

My experience with this clinic and specifically with physiotherapist Olivia Martins has been nothing short of outstanding. The clinic is always clean, organized, and welcoming (even during construction!) and they do direct billing which is very convenient.

Olivia is incredible. She listens attentively and is very knowledgeable. She demonstrates a sincere curiosity about the injury, and always finds ways to heal and help. She has helped me through three different injuries and I always leave the clinic feeling better. I finally convinced my partner to see a physiotherapist because I knew I could trust her; he has nothing but good words for her as well.
She also uses an app that shows and guides you through your physio exercises at home, with reminders and timers to help you through it. I have never been so consistent with my physio before and this is a huge plus.

Thank you Olivia and ALPHA Health Services!

Leeanna Maher puts her passion, expertise and professionalism to work with every visit. The clinic itself is expertly run, clean and inviting. Parking is convenient, as is the proximity to the subway—so no excuses ;)
If you’re a guy who might be, maybe, perhaps, asking for a friend, dealing with any plumbing issues, then Leeanna is a must see! She’ll put together a strategy and tailor it specifically for your needs. Keep living half a life, but if you want to try and get back some normal, give Leeanna a call. NOW!

Jen was a great physiotherapist. Was able to diagnose and treat my knee issues working within my ability and timetable. Excellent experience all around.

I initially went to ALPHA Health Services because it was right beside my apartment building. I was most impressed with the physiotherapy sessions there, that were streamlined for my particular problem. After 1 session with Leanna Maher I was able to move and by the end of a few sessions, together with the prescribed exercises I was pain-free. Leanna has healing hands. I trust every recommendation she makes. She and Charlotte Anderson are excellent physiotherapists. They have on-line sessions as well as posted videos of the prescribed exercises

On the advice of a Sunnybrook Hospital orthopaedic surgeon, following a multi-injury cycling accident, I booked an appointment with ALPHA. With good fortune, I was assigned Olivia Martins as my physiotherapist. For the following 21 sessions, over more than four months, Olivia consistently treated me with friendliness, consistency and professionalism. Her treatments were informed and effective, and her advice was on point. Despite the occasional discomfort (part of the process, of course), the sessions were a pleasure. Not that I want to, but should I require the services of a physiotherapist again, I know where to go. Thank you, Olivia.

I got to know about Alpha Health Service through my family doctor. I booked an appointment since I was diagnosed with Diastisis Recti postpartum. I booked an appointment with Leeanna for Pelvic floor strengthening.
Leeanna is very knowledgeable. I started going to her a month back and I can already feel I am getting my core strength back. In addition to that my posture has improved tremendously and I can see that my tummy pouch is getting better.
Leeanna is friendly and very patient. She tells me exactly which muscle will be utilized in which exercise (also draws diagrams of the exercises so that I don’t forget the exercises. Haha!). She checks in with me weekly to see if I am doing my exercises right and eventually modifies them once I get a hang of them. Since I can see how far I have come since I started going to her, I always look forward to my appointment with her.

I went to Alpha for physio therapy with Leeana Maher and the experience was excellent. Leeana was thorough and thoughtful when addressing my issues. She always followed up with me see how I was managing with the exercises. I highly recommend her.

Leanna was professional in terms of providing physiotherapeutic solutions to my physical problems. I found her empathetic and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her services.

Alpha health is simply fantastic. I look forward to each visit because the entire team - including Charlotte, Ashley and Emily - make the environment so welcoming and full of joy. Charlotte has gone above and beyond to get to the root of my migraines. From day 1 she assured me that she is heading my care team, looping in my other healthcare professionals and constantly bringing new ideas and research to help me. The level of care she gives to her patients and determination to improve my quality of life is unparalleled. Not to mention she is the MOST fun to be around! I highly recommend Alpha!

I have had back and neck issues for years, and was recently referred to this clinic. And I have to say its one of the best I have been to. I was in really bad shape when I first came in and Priscilla from the Alpha clinic really understood what was causing it. She very diligently worked out a great exercise plan. I have been working with her for a few weeks now and the results have been great. I am feeling the best I have felt in my back in years. I found her to be very knowledgeable in the field. She is very positive, friendly and effective. I am really happy that I was referred to Alpha and would surely recommend it.

I suffered a concussion and went to see Charlotte after my symptoms did not subside. I had been partially out of school and out of sports for months and Charlotte helped me get back to my normal life. She was very knowledgable and went above and beyond to help me make a full recovery. Charlotte, as well as everyone else at ALPHA was also extremely friendly and truly cared about my wellbeing.

Priscilla and her team at Alpha are amazing! Since starting at the clinic earlier this year, I’ve begun achieving goals and gained a level of motivation that allows me to strive towards greatness. Thanks to Priscilla for the time and dedication that goes into mastering her craft - I know I’m in the right direction. (Would recommend)

HIGHLY recommend receiving care at ALPHA Health Services! Not only are the staff at ALPHA highly trained, brilliant healthcare practitioners, but they are enthusiastic and passionate about getting you back on track. In a creative and dedicated manner, the team at ALPHA will tailor their approach to care to fit your specific needs – and they truly excel at it!

First, I have to say, I immediately feel the good energy from the entire team at ALPHA when I walk in the door - I am completely imbued with happiness and gratitude with every visit. The entire team at ALPHA is truly unique and have made this journey through 2020 a great deal more manageable for myself and so many others!

I started my treatment at ALPHA late May with Charlotte, and from day 1, her approach to care has been impeccable and very personable. Whilst carefully treating me for a myriad of musculoskeletal complications, Charlotte went above and beyond each and every visit. Charlotte has a keen eye, undeniably strong intuition, and open heart for the more personal attributes that underpin the recovery process. I call her my magician for so many reasons. Charlotte uses her impressive toolkit of knowledge and experience and can carefully piece together any concerns you may have to get to the root of the problem - providing optimal and holistic care. I have improved in all pillars that denote one’s recovery process, and I cannot thank her and her team enough. I joke with her, but I truly mean it when I say, everyone needs a Charlotte in their lives!

I also have to emphasize that it is incredibly special to have a team that highly values each of their team members. The extraordinary office dynamic at ALPHA does not go unnoticed and truly makes for such a friendly environment for the alpha community! It was also such a pleasure to have met Ashley and Emily, ALPHA's wonderful clinic administrators and patient care coordinators. Their friendly faces shine right through their masks and they both individually add incredible value to the ALPHA team – ensuring operations and patient bookings and inquiries are cared for in an efficient manner.

Long story short – I LOVE and very much so recommend ALPHA to all!

I suffered ligament tear and was immobile for a week before I came across Alpha Health Services. They at home physiotherapist visited me at my place and treated me at the comfort of my home.

The acupuncture specialist at Alpha Health Services knows traditional Chinese medicine well and is highly skilled at the craft. Top on my recommendations list for Acupuncture.

Best physios in the city! I am an avid athlete, and fitness enthusiast. Over the years I have had many minor injuries, and I have been so impressed with ALPHA and the physiotherapists there. I have seen Olivia, Charlotte and Priscilla and they are all amazing! I go monthly for preventative treatment, and it was made a huge different in my physicality and fitness. I have been to quite a few physios in my day for quite a few injuries… and the physios at ALPHA are the only people I will see now!

I recently slipped and injured my back, the pain was excruciating and I didn’t know what to do about it, when I came across Alpha Health’s expert massage therapist. I would highly recommend Alpha Health services to anyone looking for an experienced massage therapist or physiotherapist.

Happy to say that this office has been great. It is a cute space and always very clean (even prior to Covid). The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. I wouldn't be back on track with my knee health had I not started coming to this office. Thank you for everything

I have been working with Priscilla at Alpha Health for a few weeks now and really enjoy it. Everyone in the clinic is very friendly and welcoming. Priscilla is very fun and knowledgable and has given me exercises and stretches to strengthen and improve weakness in areas where I need it. I am already feeling and improvement where I had pain. I would definitely recommend this clinic!

I found ALPHA because I live in the area and had badly hurt my shoulder after a fall. From start to finish, the experience at the clinic has been top notch. I have recovered fully, and know that if I need anything, my physiotherapist is an email away. If I fall again, I will be back!

I have been to many physiotherapists, but have never felt so “cared for” as I did at ALPHA. I worked with Charlotte, and her approach, creativity, bed side manner, energy and unbelievable intelligence got me back on my feet, and more functional than I ever though possible after I was in a car accident. I am so grateful to her, and the team at ALPHA- they really are incredible practitioners, and I have referred my family and friends to them. There clinic is easy to access, clean, their online booking system is easy, and overall, they WILL get you back to your full functional abilities. Thank you, Charlotte and ALPHA.

The most amazing and highly experienced massage therapists in UK. Not only are the experts professional in their conduct but also ensure that you have the most relaxing experience.

I found ALPHA Health Services on a whim one day while googling for physiotherapy and reached out to make and appointment. Charlotte (owner and absolute gem) got back to me in less than a day and assigned me to my physiotherapist Olivia. Olivia is a miracle worker. I had severe back pain and pinched nerves from sitting at a desk from 9-5 and within weeks I was feeling better. She assigned me daily stretches to do and inspired me to workout. Additionally, she has the hands of God. Truly one of the best clinics in Toronto!

Indeed the best Clinic in Toronto, it was so easy for me to book a session for my treatment, they send follow-up e-mails thus overall a great experience I had with them. The professional worked some magic on my joint pain, and after few sessions, it was gone. They really helped me boost my fitness system.

Great clinic- from booking through treatment and then with email follow ups, my experience was flawless. Olivia was able to create an easy to follow treatment program to manage my joint pain and increase my fitness levels, and adjust it as I improved. The clinic itself is very bright and well run and when it was impossible to go in person, they facilitated video sessions so I could keep moving. Highly recommended!

In 2017, my family doctor referred me to Charlotte for a shoulder injury. Charlotte was amazing! Through a physio regime and massage treatments at Alpha, I regained full strength and mobility in my shoulder. Since then, Charlotte has treated me for several other injuries. Charlotte & the staff at Alpha are friendly and very professional and Charlotte has always been available between appointments to answer questions. The online booking system is easy to use (and to reschedule an appointment if necessary).

I have ankylosing spondylitis and was referred to Charlotte at Alpha Health Services. Best decision ever. Charlotte is the best she is so knowledgeable and so eager to make you feel better. She makes herself always available. What can i say except that i don't want to go or see anyone else. She's always smiling and make you feel so comfortable. Nancy

I have had a great experience with physiotherapist Rebecca Chow at ALPHA Health Services. She is kind and knowledgeable, and has given me excellent hands-on care as well as effective exercises to do at home. The clinic as a whole has gladly accommodated my needs, and has a clean and friendly atmosphere. I recommend their services.

Alpha was my first experience in ever needing physiotherapy services - I had a frozen shoulder and subsequently sprained the MCL in my left knee. I cannot stress enough how great the folks are at Alpha - I had about 16-months of physio visits there. My physiotherapist Olivia Martins was fabulous - Well spirited, knowledgeable, and flexible - She always accommodated my after work schedule & gave me a link to online videos to help me with my exercises between appointments. From the initial intake/assessment through to my successful recovery, going to Alpha was great experience. Also, they're just a short 1/2 block distance away from Eglinton subway station (get off on the south entrance ie: the exit by the bus bay). You just need to walk through the condo courtyard and the office is there - It's a super convenient location! The staff seem happy to be there & I think it's a reflection of sound ownership from Charlotte, who is a hoot to talk to!

Very professional. Leanna is a life-saver! She was able to identify a problem when other medical "professionals" were not. I am so thankful for her expertise and now for her help in my recovery from surgery!
I highly recommend them.

Dr. Carew is an amazing doctor with exceptional work ethics. She really goes out of her way to help you. Also, Ashley at the reception makes you feel welcome. It was wonderful being there. Thank you so much!

I came to see Olivia at Alpha for an ongoing knee issue. Olivia was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and professional. She was able to diagnose me quickly and accurately and she took the time to explain what was happening to cause the pain. I left with the tools and exercises I needed to help with my knee pain. Scheduling appointments was a cinch and their new second location at Bridgepoint Hospital could not be more convenient. We need more physiotherapists like Olivia in the city! Very highly recommended.

Jennifer Harvey is a superb physiotherapist. Best I’ve ever had. Conscientious, extremely knowledgeable, caring. Always willing to answer all my questions and provide exercises.

Charlotte is the most amazing physio I've ever been to (and that's sadly a long list). In the FIRST SESSION she did a thorough assessment and pinpointed the root of my problems which had been overlooked for years. From there she built a reasonable action plan that completely considered my pain, needs, coverage, etc. I can truly say that Charlotte is someone who cares about her patients and their needs vs making a quick buck. She will go above and beyond when there's absolutely nothing for her to gain but her patients' improvement in health. Whenever I go in I notice all patients are greeted by their name and with a smile.very rare to find someone so incredibly talented and yet super sweet so feel assured in your choice to go see her!
