5 /5 Brian Joyce: Northern Beaches Health and Performance has worked collaboratively with myself and the treating doctor to assist in my recovery after a back injury. Their multi-faceted approach has never altered the goals of being able to return to pre-injury duties. The friendliness of their approach greatly encourages you to attend, and their supportive and understanding approach assisted me greatly. They listened to the demands of my work and my needs, and with ongoing assessment, they have tailored the programs accordingly.
On arrival at the clinic, all staff make you feel welcome and are happy to assist you as needed. They are friendly, and they all work well as a team. They hold themselves to a high standard, and it shows in the programs they set following each assessment. With a steady increase in program intensity, there is no option but to progress towards the set goals.
My doctor, employer, and I have been continually updated throughout the process, with regular updates provided. The progress that I have made has allowed me to be within reach of my goal of returning to preinjury duties.
When setting the program, they explain what each exercise is and what each exercise targets. They also continually assess the program and make minor adjustments to ensure you keep advancing in your recovery.
I have found the process not only enjoyable but also fulfilling. I would like to thank the team, led by Katie, for their assistance in the process.
On speaking with my employer’s recovery team, they are extremely impressed with my progress and have started to recommend Northern Beaches Health and Performance to other injured employees. This shows the confidence not only I have for the professional way they approached my injury, but also the confidence my employer has with them.
