The doctors and staff here set the bar for medical services. After suffering a back injury while skiing they worked with me to diagnose the issue and then develop a plan to recover. I'm stronger and have a better understanding of how my body works. I recommend that all of my friends who sustain injuries come and get checked out.

My son visited this clinic for concussion treatment and we received excellent care and guidance throughout his recovery. It gave us confidence as we progressed through the concussion recovery guidelines, which can be difficult to ascertain without professional input.

Went in to ISM a about a month ago because I couldn't straighten my knee from a sudden sports injury. They were able to diagnose the problem quickly, schedule me an MRI, and refer me to a surgeon who operated less than 2 weeks later. Couldn't be happier with how fast and accurate they were with everything. Thansk ISM!

I have been going to Innovate Sport Medicine for over a year now to investigate some knee issues I have experienced for over 2 years now. I am so grateful my Physiotherapist put me in touch with Dr Robinson. Marcus is incredibly smart and so in tune with athletic injuries. He knows his anatomy so well and explains in great detail what is happening during movement. He has asked great questions to get me thinking about my injuries. He has changed my mindset and given me a realistic outlook toward moving forward with my activities as I age. I have received multiple very safe injections from him and

I love visiting this clinic! It has everything I need. Dr Robinson is fantastic, thorough and extremely knowledgeable. His patient demeanour puts you at ease and make you feel like a priority as he doesnt rush you in and out. Ive also been to physio there and Tlaia (sp?) was amazing.
