What Dan's patients say...
This office experience deserves its 5 stars and then some! All staff I encountered were professional and helpful … Dan MacKinnon, my physiotherapist, was knowledgeable and displayed genuine concern for my progress. He made me feel comfortable, through great personal chats, and successful through his positive, encouraging comments. I totally recommend Cornerstone Physiotherapy!
What Dan's patients say...
Amazing experience at Cornerstone Physio! Dan is very knowledgeable, caring and made me feel comfortable from the very beginning. He helped reduce the back pain I was experiencing to none at all and created a plan to help me achieve the physical state I was in prior to injury. Additionally, the ladies at the front desk were always very friendly. I would recommend Cornerstone to anyone.
What Dan's patients say...
I had vertigo for 7 weeks, it was pretty brutal. Then I found out about Cornerstone. 1 visit with Dan and I’m completely cured. He spent the time to correctly diagnose the problem and fixed it in a matter of minutes. I don’t leave a ton of glowing over the top 5 star reviews…this one is earned!
What Dan's patients say...
I think everyone should know how absolutely wonderful Dan is, who helped me over come two episodes of tendinitis. Kind, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about clients he sees. I highly recommend! The staff at the desk are very personable too, and always great you in a kind manner, overall great place to seek physiotherapy
What Dan's patients say...
Really fantastic clinic. I had the fortune of working together with Daniel MacKinnon to help me deal with some symptoms of vertigo. He was extremely knowledgable, professional, and kind. He took the time to explain how vertigo worked in a clear and concise way — and went above and beyond the expected service to ensure things were going well and I was progressing well with my treatment.
