These guys attract the best physios and have helped me through many years at all stages of my exercise life. Can not recommend more highly. I recently moved and went to a different physio for a shoulder issue, but had little improvement after 3 expensive visits over a month. So I made the trip across town back to Hawthorn Physiotherapy and it got better in two days with a different diagnosis. Also the BUPA gap payment is low here. Only $33, compared to $93 at some other physios.

Would highly recommend the clinic - I’ve had a fantastic experience. All the staff are very friendly and super helpful. I’m coming back from a shoulder operation and seen Charlie as part of my rehab. He has clearly articulated what’s required to get back to playing sport. Each appointment is detailed, thorough and involves treatment. I’ve been incredibly satisfied and pleased that I’ve been able to return to the sporting field, with strength and confidence.

Sophie Rubira treated me after a total knee replacement. Great communicator, very knowledgable and friendly, and most of all she is pragmatic, knowing when to back off or reduce the intensity of a particular exercise. Not only that, she answers followup questions by email. I have found her to be a very very effective physio and would highly recommend her.

Fantastic physio with very friendly and helpful staff. I cannot recommend Marcy enough, she is so thorough and knowledgeable! She knew exactly what was going on with my knee, and my knee has gained much more strength after following her advice and exercise programs. I’ve been to other physios before and there was no other physio who understood my condition better. Highly recommend!
