Athlete's Care Sports Medicine Centres - King & Yonge

I've gone to Athlete's Care King & Yonge locations for a couple of years whenever I need either massage therapy sessions with Craig and Matt B. or physiotherapy with Endri and Matt. I'm very happy with the professional and skilled services I've received from all members of the team. Specially the positive results! It's easy to book sessions online, the staff at reception are friendly and helpful any time I've had to make changes. A special shout out to Endri and Matt for the therapy I'm receiving to help me through my shoulder, arm and foot injuries. I saw results from the first session onwards. Happy to recommend Athlete's Care to others.

I have been very happy with the quality of care at Athlete’s Care King and Yonge. Victoria DiSabatino is an excellent physiotherapist and I recommend an appointment with her. I am in my late 30s and I had experienced an acute exacerbation of a chronic back pain that hadn’t become manageable despite past treatments in the past 2-3 years. I did physiotherapy with Victoria from Feb to May 2023 and have now transitioned to checking in when needed.While past treatments before visiting Victoria at Athlete’s Care had each helped me improve, two things helped this time to make recovery more sustainable: physiotherapy exercises under supervision to ensure they are done correctly and advanced in intensity appropriately, and meds to reduce pain and inflammation recommended by my family physician. I strongly recommend both, and others as needed like managing sleep or stress.I liked how Victoria’s approach is responsive to one’s needs and specific condition. She’s also very good in showing and describing what imbalances there are in the body and what can help. We started with a hands-on approach with manual therapy, medical acupuncture, and exercises under supervision. Even though I could not sit or bend easily, we started gently and advanced to training with resistance bands, weights, and balance exercises. I was functional in 6 weeks, and we could reduce pain meds to 1-2 times a week. Over the course of 2 more months, we managed to reduce the frequency of visits to once a month and develop a long-term plan for needed exercises and what to do if pain recurred. Unlike the past 2-3 years, in the past two months I have been able to manage to prevent or exit a pain state without the need to refer to a clinic.Access to the clinic is easy with indoor access to King subway station through escalators. Elevators are not working due to construction at the station (at least in May 2023), but there is ramp access from in front of the building (outdoor access). The clinic has a small gym space with equipment to do exercises. The admin staff are friendly and very helpful. Direct billing with (only) one insurance provider can be arranged by the staff.

I am very impressed with the amazing care I've been receiving at Athlete's Care Center. Victoria DiSabatino is an excellent Physiotherapist. I appreciate her professionalism and excellent service. Victoria has helped me overcome many chronic issues, pain and discomfort that I was experiencing for last few years. She is caring, competent, friendly and committed to treat her clients the best way possible. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a Physiotherapist!! I am very pleased with the wonderful staff at the Centre. They are very friendly and accommodating.

Athlete's Care Sports Medicine Centres is the right place to be for all your sports medicine needs. I was referred to Dr. Howard Chen way back in 2013, and I haven't looked back. His depth of experience is evident in the efficacy of the treatments he prescribes. Dr. Chen has helped me resolve numerous issues, from acute and short lived issues, to chronic and persistent injuries. During these past six years, while I've been dealing with a complex series of lower body injuries, Dr. Chen's care, compassion and understanding has meant the world to me. It's been frustrating, sure -- but we didn't give up, and I am doing so much better now!I've also had the good fortune of being treated by Dr. Marcus Jansen (chronic shoulder injury) and Dr. Beverley Chow (chronic pelvic dysfunction) -- their expertise have helped me manage chronic conditions, and bounce back.Time may be unforgiving, but life doesn't have to be. Getting back to the best version of ourselves is possible, with the right help. Athlete's Care is all that and more!

I started seeing Endri & Matt after suffering for months with unrelenting knee pain, inflammation, and a torn minuscule. Honestly, I couldn't imagine a pain-free life.Their treatment methods, bedside manner, and sharing of practical knowledge with easy-to-incorporate exercises have been game changers in my recovery and transitioning to be pain-free in less than a month.They took the time to educate and show me (through simulation) what was happening beneath my leg's surface, and we worked together to create a sustainable treatment plan. We discussed and practiced different exercise options at the end of most sessions, and they made sure I ended up with only those that I could endure/enjoy. This changed my mobility and quality of life; since I could maintain my weekly exercise regime.Aside from their professional excellence, their humanity, empathy, and wholesome discussion offered in our sessions gave me the much-needed hope to embrace my treatment and be encouraged through the challenging moments of my recovery.I cannot sing their praises enough and am happy to recommend them to anyone as stellar physiotherapists who care about the whole life cycle of your treatment and mobility beyond their sessions.Thank you so much, Endri & Matt.

Highly recommend! Been seeing Victoria for a few months. after a few sprains and a fracture, I decided to do physiotherapy. Victoria has been treating me, and I couldn’t be happier. She’s absolutely awesome, cares and I’ve made so much progress that I could have never done without physio.On a side note, the staff and doctors there are really nice and accommodating. Always a pleasure to go

Endri has been fantastic with his physio work - he was very personable, professional and patient with identifying the appropriate treatment plan in getting me to a full recovery. Definitely one of my most positive experiences from being an Athlete's Care patient.

I have nothing but good things to say about Athlete’s Care. The staff are very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. In particular, physiotherapist Endri Ulaj and his assistant Matt have made dramatic improvements to my range of motion, strength and pain reduction. I appreciate not just the results but the fact that they take the time to explain the cause of my discomfort and how the exercises assigned will address it. My quality of life is markedly better because of them!

Endri Ulaj has treated me these last six months for a serious injury to my right leg. Endri is that one percent type who loves his profession, stays on the cutting edge of treatment, and goes after solutions for his clients. His skilled use of acupuncture, deep tissue massage, electronic stimulation of nerves and muscles, and the knowledge to make these elements effective have made the difference. My leg has come along well. I will heal fully. This is what Endri has done for me. I should add that Endri has been more than an expert practitioner. His respectful and friendly manner kept me upbeat when I feared the injury would in the end cost me my mobility. He kept me working to heal. I am grateful.

I have been going to Athletes Care since January and it has been a great experience. Gita Lakra is my physio and she is fantastic! Very knowledgeable, kind, and was a massive part of my recovery. Can’t thank her enough for all her hard work and dedication to her patients.
