Ottawa Health: Performance and Rehabilitation: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I undertook the VO2 max -bike- performance assessment under the direction of Dr. Rich & Med colleague Alexie (sorry if misspelling) on Dec 9, 2024. I felt very comfortable & did good. Dr. Rich explained in details to me the various data/graph test outputs on the spot and provided the full report after the test. I'm going to do it again in 1 year:)
Thank you Daniel! We're happy to hear about your positive experience. Best of luck in your training!
Fantastic experience: I appreciated having a spot open up for me during a short visit to Ottawa. They opened up a spot to test my VO2 max in the performance vault. The process was explained well from start to finish. They explained my results and gave me some suggestions to improve my VO2 max even further.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review Dana! It was very nice meeting you and we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience!
Fantastic experience: Excellent services received today. I feel better.
Thank you Josephine! We appreciate your support and are glad to hear you're already doing better.
Fantastic experience: The best experience, professional people. Richard took the time to explain to me in detail my health problems and to give me some advice. Very careful and caring with the clients.
Thank you Kelly, we appreciate your kind review! It's been a pleasure
Fantastic experience: Great experience - I got the insight and information I was looking for and the process and results were thoroughly explained.
Fantastic experience: I would recommend OHP in a heart beat. My first appointment with Jenny St - Jean the nurse practitioner was a great experience. She is highly experienced and much better than any medical professional out there. She made referrals right away for my health care. The office staff is very welcoming and gives excellent service. I commend the owner of OHP. 5 star plus and will definitely recommend. Thank you !
Fantastic experience: Dr. Najem is a great physiotherapist.
Thank you William! We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.
Fantastic experience: Very professional, client friendly, and effective services rendered. My experience so far has been a great one, and I'm seeing results of difficulties I've had both within and over a year.
Fantastic experience: The nurse practitioner service has been amazing. They are very caring and I’m always able to get an appointment when needed. The ability to have phone appointments is such a big plus.
Hi Natalia, thank you for the kind review. We are thrilled to hear that you're finding our program beneficial to you. All the best!
Fantastic experience: Ive had a great experience here with the health program and working with the NP. They went through a transition phase and handled it so well and make sure I was taken care of through the whole thing. They have been quick to respond and get me appointments. 100% recommend.
Hi Caroline, thank you for very much for the kind review. We truly appreciate your patience during our transition. It's a pleasure being of assistance.
Fantastic experience: I am happy to be a member of OHP. Dr Rich is very knowledgeable and experienced. Nurse practitioners Kathleen Hogue and Jenny St Jean are supportive in every way. I do not have to wait for my prescriptios or referrals. They are certainly ontop of their game. Very caring group of people. Receptionist Victoria returns my calls almost immediately and gives excellent "patient service". I recommend Thank you all.
Thank you very much for the kind words! We are thrilled to hear that we've been a good support to you, and will continue to be. We are looking forward to your continued success.
Negative experience: The review is specific to the nurse practitioner program. I have no experience with any of the other services they offer. Unfortunately I can't recommend this service to anyone. It is a great idea but the execution is terrible - no-notice cancellations, late appointments. It's just not a significant step up from what is available free from the province. This isn't a comment on the nurse practitioners themselves. The one I saw was fine. The clinic just isn't set up to deliver this service.
Hi Jesse, we appreciate your feedback and do acknowledge your unique circumstances. As you've been informed, we have unfortunately ran into unforeseeable circumstances where our nurse practitioner at the time had a death in the family and had to take a leave of absence for less than 2 weeks. While we understand the inconvenience this might have caused, we at Ottawa Health fully support our staff in prioritizing their family over work. For this, we do not apologize. 99% of our patients were very compassionate about the situation and we've been very grateful for the kind messages we've received about the circumstances. With that being said, this has been a learning experience for us as well and we are making the appropiate changes to have multiple nurse practitioners available during the work week. All the best to you
Fantastic experience: A refreshing change from your typical chiropractor. I love the holistic and practical approach.
Thank you for your support Melissa! It was a pleasure hosting you.
Fantastic experience: Amazing adjustments, thank you guys so much
Thank you Daniel, it was a pleasure working with you!
Fantastic experience: First class service. Professional and genuine staff!
Thank you Ben! It was a pleasure working with you, all the best to you. Ottawa Health will be cheering you on!
Fantastic experience: Everyone here was brilliant and made me feel great! Christine really helped me perform at my peak!
It was pleasure meeting you, Bryce! Our team wishes you all the best in your continued success. We will be cheering you on!
Fantastic experience: I’m a professional golfer and Stephanie and Christine volunteered to help us get ready for the tournament. They were great! They were understanding of our body motions that create the problems we come in with. I left feeling refreshed and ready to play.
Thank you for your review, Nate! It was a pleasure meeting you and watching you compete. The Ottawa Health Team will be cheering you on, all the best!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Christine Radd assessed me then put me on a stretching and exercise routine that had me back on my feet in no time. I was very impressed with her knowledge of the anatomy. But the handiest thing had to be the app, which demonstrates each exercise using a video.
We are happy to hear about your positive experience John! Thank you for leaving a review!
Fantastic experience: I am very happy to have had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Christine Rad. Her exercise suggestions and kinetic explanations have been extremely good for me. And since Dr. Rad outfitted me with new orthotics, my feet have never been more comfortable! My knees and lower back are also feeling positive changes. On a recent vacation where my wife and I took daily walks of 3 to 4 hours duration, I felt great. For over 3 weeks we frequently logged 15,000 - 20,000 steps daily, some of it up and down some serious mountainous terrain. I never once felt any distress!
That's great news Michael! We are thrilled to hear that you are feeling better. Thank you for the positive feedback!
Fantastic experience: Really great service from everyone.
Thank you Matt! We appreciate your support.
Fantastic experience: I ended up performing a VO2 max test last year and used the results to inform my training strategy for my running and found it very helpful! I would for sure come back to perform another test to see how things have changed and how to keep improving in my running. Even though I am older, having access to a facility where we can perform these kinds of tests is very helpful, especially when I have long-term goals - Ryan Fincham
Happy to hear Ryan! Thanks for the review and best of luck with your training!
Fantastic experience: Everyone is always so friendly and has very flexible hours.
Thank you for the kind review!
Fantastic experience: Dr Raigoza combines physiotherapy and chiropractic methods to put me back in top shape in no time. He also makes himself available when it's convenient for me.
Thank you Luc! We appreciate the review.
Fantastic experience: I race XC skiing - and I am old AF - so I was curious about how un-fit I was. I was so excited to find an accessible VO2 Max Test for a normal dude like me. I scheduled online - easy. I was nervous about the process -should I do the bike or the treadmill. I went treadmill -even though I don't consider myself a "runner" - even though I used to be a competitive Road cyclist. I was nervous. I was ready. The mask was tight, but comfortable. I was free to run normally. The test was explained to me in simple, relevant detail. The test was hard - but so worth it. The data it gives you is a true eye opener. There is not one fitness tracker, HR monitor, or other gadget you can buy that will give you the information this test provides. It changed the way I trained - seriously. Just do it. You won't regret it.
Hi Mike, we thoroughly enjoyed reading your review! Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback and detail your experience!
Fantastic experience: Excellent medical clinic. Dedicated, knowledgeable staff who are focused on their patients' health, well-being and improved quality of life.
We appreciate the review Doug! Thank you for your support!
Fantastic experience: Such a great experience with Ottawa Health. I booked a Vo2 Max test with them. It was a such a quick and streamlined experience. Very knowledgeable post test session, explaining all the results, and I’ll be able to use the data I got and apply to my training. Dr. Raigoza was amazing! 5 out of 5 hands down! I’ll be using them for future Vo2 Max testing!
Thank you Denis! We are so glad you enjoyed the experience. Best of luck with your training.
Fantastic experience: Always high level of professionalism. Excellent treatment results. After seeing a number of different health therapists Dr Raigoza was the one who was able to work through my challenging case. I have a lot of respect for how he works.
Hi Rima, thank you kindly for this review. It has been an absolute pleasure being part of your recovery. The Ottawa Health Team is always happy to help!
Fantastic experience: I injured my leg during a game and found it difficult to walk. Dr. Christine was recommended to me by a family friend. I found her to be knowledgeable and personable. Dr. Christine was able to come up with a treatment that proved to be successful. Throughout the process she provided an extremely well articulated plan that I could understand and follow. I would definitely trust her abilities if I were in need again.
Hi Fabio, thank you for the kind review! We are very fortunate to have Dr. Rad as part of our team. We are always happy to help. We wish you all the best
Fantastic experience: I've referred many of my patients to the clinic's Nurse Practitioner and Chiropractors, and heard only great things. I'm so happy that my patients are under excellent care at Ottawa Health. Thank you for offering our community excellent patient care!
Thank you for the kind message Sarab! It's a pleasure being able to help your patients.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Rich Raigoza is very good... I would definitely recommend him.
Thank you Guy! We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review!
Fantastic experience: I was referred to Dr. Christine Rad after suffering from back pain for over a year. She gave me a personalized program for the severe level of pain I was experiencing. The lifesaver for me was her recommendation to try to get in to a pool to exercise. The exercises in the pool gave me relief and gave me the confidence to move forward in my recovery. Her clear explanation of the reason for my pain has given me a better understanding moving forward. I am grateful for her support.
Thank you for the kind and thorough review Melody. These success stories keep us inspired and motivated! Keep up the good work
Fantastic experience: I'm seeing Dr. Richar. I wasn't sure chiropractice was what I needed, but I really like his more holistic approach. I was expecting to have my back cracked and then leave, but it's much more than that. He added a physiotherapy twist to it, with exercices to build strength, so my problem doesn't reoccur.
Thank you Genevieve for the kind words! We are happy to hear that your experience was better than expected :)
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and excellent service.
Hello Sandra, thank you very much for your comment. We will always be at your service!
Fantastic experience: Great experience overall. Dr Rad is very personable and attentive.
Thank you for the review Ali!
Fantastic experience: The GLA:D program was a huge help with my knee arthritis-- my knees are stronger and less painful after the 6-week session. Dr. Christine Rad is outstanding: very knowledgeable, and she took the time to help each of us with our individual exercises and particular arthritis and other musculoskeletal issues. I absolutely recommend the GLA:D program and Dr. Rad to anyone with arthritis pain.
Hi Scott, thank you for the very kind review. It was a pleasure hosting and watching you progress through the program. Keep up the good work!
Fantastic experience: The best of the best. Effective diagnosis and treatment.
Thank you Marco!
Fantastic experience: Had a “chronic” back issue that others had said would require regular weekly appointments for several months… saw Dr Rad twice, who said if I stick to exercises she prescribed, I shouldn’t need to come back. 4 months later, I’m writing this review to say she was right. Bad for her business, but awesome for me— thank you!!
Hi Josh, we take great pride in being healthcare professionals before businessmen/businesswomen! Thank you for your kind review and we're happy that you found quick success.
Fantastic experience: This was a great day spent with Dr Rich & Team. As a fitness instructor, I found it very informative, and I learned more about the body. I have already referred Ottawa Health Performance. Thank you.
Thank you for the kind review Raymonde! It was a pleasure learning with you as well. All the best with your clients and health goals!
Fantastic experience: The Squatting Masterclass Seminar was amazing! The class was very informative. The book material was enhanced with a good slide presentation to provide visuals to the concepts discussed. In addition, the opportunity to practice the assessments learned under the guidance of Dr. Raigoza, Dr. Rad and Dr. Hemstock helped reinforce what was learned allowing me to use it immediately with my group fitness and personal training clients the next day.
Thank you for the kind review Michael. It was a pleasure meeting you and learning by your side. Wishing you all the best with your clients. Stay healthy!
Fantastic experience: Dr Christine Rad was awesome in curing my Plantar Fasciitis. Her ability to assess and treat me and cure me fast is why highly recommend her and going to OHPR!
Amazing to hear Sam! We are happy to hear about your positive experience and thank you for leaving a review.
Fantastic experience: I went to the clinic because of a severe and chronic problem with a hip tendonopathy that was preventing my running and even making walking a bit of a challenge. I asked for Shockwave treatment as I had learned, from a sports physician, that this was preferable to cortisone for treating this condition. I had had a couple of shockwave treatments in my home city a month earlier, but they did not do much for me. Ottawa Health has the latest and more powerful Shockwave equipment, so I thought I would give it a try. Dr. Stephanie was my therapist. I had four treatments altogether, and while it took awhile, it worked. Stephanie was excellent. Friendly and thoroughly professional. The clinic setting is attractive and welcoming. I strongly recommend this clinic for this type of treatment for injuries like mine. I am back running, with occasional twinges, but as forecast the remediation is progressing and I am well satisfied.
We are happy to hear about your positive experience Murdith! Thank you for leaving a review!
Fantastic experience: Ottawa Performance and Rehab (Chiropractic care, physiotherapy and massage therapy) have helped me tremendously over the years with some injuries that occurred at my work. With their help and expertise I was able to return to work almost immediately and with less pain. They are an incredible team that strive for their patient's well-being. I will recommend them to everyone I know. Thank you all for the amazing work you all do.
Thank you Stephane! It's a pleasure working with you and we appreciate your kind words!
Fantastic experience: Due to the awful state of decay of our Canadian health system, the lack of a family doctor, and long wait times at hospitals, I chose to seek alternative treatment when I became ill with joint and muscular discomfort that affected my movements and caused me to become weak. I won't go into detail about the options that didn't work, but I will tell you about the ONE that did. OTTAWA HEALTH: PERFORMANCE AND REHABILITATION and Dr. Rich Raigoza provided me with a comprehensive evaluation in an excellent and professional manner that I haven't seen in over 30 years. For me, honesty is extremely valued, and when Dr. Raigoza informed me he was unable to treat me in my current condition, I realized I needed to see a medical practitioner. But Dr. Raigoza's assistance did not end there. He wrote me an ideal letter detailing what "he thought was wrong with me" and recommending that I see a rheumatologist. This was an enormous benefit at the hospital; I got the rheumatologist recommendation I needed and am now on my way to recovery. When I'm feeling better, I'll return to Ottawa Health: Performance and Rehabilitation for my chiropractic needs. I am pleased to endorse this establishment, especially with a Registered Nurse on the way to open a walk-in clinic.
Jacobo, it was a pleasure playing a small part in your journey to recovery. Thank you for the heartfelt message, the satisfaction of our patients is our utmost priority. Wishing you a speedy recovery, The Ottawa Health Team is at your service!
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the VO2 Max service Dr Rich and team provide. The test was fun itself, but the debrief was the best. Dr Rich is rooted in the latest evidence based medicine - and he uses this to bring your personal data into context. It’s great. I bought a 3-pack, so will be back.
Thank you Stephen!
Fantastic experience: Only great things to say about Dr. Raigoza and his team. Dr. Raigoza is very knowledgeable and cares about you. Thank you
Thank you for the kind words Andrea. It has been a pleasure working with you! We are all very glad to hear of your positive experience.
Fantastic experience: I had a remarkable experience at Ottawa Health: Performance and Rehabilitation under the care of Dr. Richar Raigoza. My visit to their Bank Street clinic for a VO2 Max test was nothing short of exceptional. Dr. Raigoza and his team displayed a remarkable level of professionalism and genuine care throughout the entire process. From the moment I stepped in, they took the time to thoroughly explain every aspect of the test, ensuring I knew what to expect during the examination. What truly set them apart was their commitment to providing a comprehensive review of my test results once the procedure was completed. This dedication to patient understanding and involvement left me feeling empowered and well-informed about my own health. My interest in the VO2 Max test was sparked by Peter Attia's book, "Outlive," where he underscores the significance of this test in predicting longevity. It was not only my personal journey towards a healthier life but also the curiosity it ignited in my 23-year-old son that made our visit truly memorable. So much so that he decided to book a VO2 Max test for himself right on the spot. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Richar Raigoza and Ottawa Health: Performance and Rehabilitation for their outstanding service, expertise, and genuine commitment to patient well-being. If you're seeking top-notch healthcare with a focus on personalized attention and thorough understanding, look no further than this exceptional clinic.
It was a pleasure working with you Mike! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we appreciate your kind words!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Christine Rad is wonderful, she's a great chiropractor and I appreciate that she uses a multitude of different styles of techniques to help work areas of tension and pain. Has helped a lot with my neck pain and headaches!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review Emma! We appreciate your kind words and are glad to hear that there has been improvement in your neck pain and headaches!

Fantastic experience: I reached out to the clinic and Chelsea got back to me right away answering all my questions. I will be booking a VO2 test soon. I booked my 2nd VO2 Max test about 5 months later and was happy to see some improvement. The staff at the clinic are great and give you good encouragement and motivation. I highly recommend Ottawa Health.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review & for your kind words Nick! We can't wait to help you achieve your goals with the VO2 max test!
Fantastic experience: Christine and Stephanie were really great in treating my neck and upper back issues! Specially with the acupuncture combined with the E Stim, that was something I’ve never done and was really impressed by! Thank you guys!
Thanks David, we appreciate the kind review. It was a pleasure working with you and watching you play. You are very welcome, we look forward to working with you again.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Stephanie Hemstock was fabulous. I like how she works with the muscles first before doing any chiropractic adjustment. I was dealing with some tightness in my right shoulder and neck as well as tendonitis in my thumb. She didn't cut any corners to any of the concerns I had, and she made sure to talk to me about what she was noticing as she worked on the troubled areas. Very thankful for her!
Thank you for the kind words Josh! It was a pleasure working with you, we're glad you found our service useful to your performance. All the best with the rest of your tournaments.
Fantastic experience: I’m a Professional Golfer and this was game changing for me prior to my tournament! Was helpful in every regard! Thank you!
Thanks for the kind words Chase. It was a pleasure meeting you and watching you play. We wish you all the best and will be looking forward to your success.
Fantastic experience: It was an amazing experience! Great work and felt my body lot better after the session.
Thank Cao, it was a great experience for us as well! It was a pleasure working with you and we wish you all the best.
Fantastic experience: Dr.Christine Rad did awesome work, had some problems with neck and hip mobility and she really took care of them. Didn’t even feel the issue after two sessions
Thanks for the review Matthew, it was a pleasure working with you! All the best with the rest of the Canadian Tour! We hope to see you again
Fantastic experience: Dr. Christine Rad amazingly eliminated my low back pain and restored my neck mobility. Her expertise made me feel comfortable and allowed her to do her job with precision. I hope to see her again!
Thank you for your feedback, it was a pleasure working with you. We hope to see you again, during the tour or big screen! All the best
Fantastic experience: Very thankful for the help at this weeks Ottawa Open!
You are very welcome, it was a pleasure working with you! All the best
Fantastic experience: I've worked with a couple of chiropractors over the past 3 years, and I would say that Dr. Richar is the most knowledgeable out of all of them. I've been struggling with tendonitis for a while and he knew exactly how to help fix the problem. He's super professional and gets straight to the point. I highly recommend him to anyone dealing with injuries - especially if you do high demanding sports like powerlifting. Thanks again for your help Richar!
Happy to hear about your positive experience JM! Thank you for taking time out of your day to leave a review.
Fantastic experience: When I first came to Ottawa, I was looking for a chiropractor because of chronic neck pain and tightness all over my body. When I searched online this clinic came out. It wasn’t called this because Dr Raigoza bought the clinic a year after I started going there. They are amazing people. I was taking the bus to go there and the hour long trip is SO worth it. They listen to you and they find solutions to your problems. I did acupuncture, readjustments and pressure point massages. They are truly great. Unfortunately after 4 years I have to leave Ottawa so I won’t be able to go see them anymore, but if you’re looking for help, they are the ones you need !
It has been a pleasure working with you Karen. Thank you leaving a review and we wish nothing but the best moving forward!
Fantastic experience: My treatment was done from doctor richar raigoza. Best chiropractor seen on first day listened to my problem and started on my problem. He fixed my issues within 5 weeks of visiting the place. These guys are best i will recommend everyone to go see them. If you need any kind of services
Thank you Karan! It has been a pleasure working with you and we are so happy that you have had a positive experience.
Fantastic experience: I received treatment from Dr. Richard for a few months. He helped me heal my chronic hip and ankle pain as well as treat an acute left ankle sprain. I made great progress due to his knowledge on the human anatomy and giving me really good exercises to do everyday and reach my goals. Thank you Ottawa Health for your great service!
We are happy to hear that you are feeling better and seeing results Georgio! Thank you for the positive feedback!
Fantastic experience: In every visit and every interaction Ottawa Health has been helpful, attentive, kind and professional.
We appreciate the kind words! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Very pleased with my VO2 max test for cycling. Staff were very knowledgable and supportive, explaining clearly all steps before and during the test. Value added post test discussion of results, hard copy report and ongoing App use: highly recommend !
It was a pleasure meeting you Matthew! Happy to hear that you had a positive experience. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!
Fantastic experience: I saw Dr. Bekhit today for my first appointment and I found she was very thorough and incredibly informative! It was my first chiropractic adjustment which made me a little nervous but the doctor made me feel comfortable! I would definitely recommend this doctor and this clinic to anyone! The clinic staff was also very friendly!
Hi Tylar, we really appreciate you taking time out of your day to leave a review. Thank you for the kind words and it was a pleasure meeting you!
Fantastic experience: Excellent service and a very friendly and relaxed environment! I had Dr Raigoza (Rich) who took time to get to know me and assess my issue/s. Had me back on track and playing sport again after just a few sessions ;-)
Great to hear Paul! Thank you for the positive feedback.
Fantastic experience: Amazing faculty, professionals and approach to overall health and wellness. Thank you Dr. Rich!
Hi Albert, thank you for your very kind review. It has been a pleasure serving your needs!
Fantastic experience: What can't I say about Ottawa Health: Performance and Rehabilitation. I have struggled with back issues for years, it was especially difficult last year when I injured my back and was out of sport for almost a year. Dr. Rich, Attilia, Robin, Daniella, and Corey consistently provided me with an exceptional experience. Not only did they get me doing the things I love again, they managed my expectations and helped me during a very difficult time. They are incredibly responsive to my emails and can always find time for me when my body feels off. Dr. Rich has built and incredible community around his practice and if you're looking for the best healthcare experience, look no further, you've found it.
Wow! Thank you for such a kind a review Derrick. It is our pleasure and we thank you for being a part of our clinic and a joy work with!
Fantastic experience: Such a welcoming environment with extremely knowledgeable staff. Dr. Christine Rad has always taken her time to listen to the concerns I have and provide feedback/exercises on how I can help improve this in the future. I've seen amazing results since going here and highly recommend to others to check it out!
We are happy to hear that you have enjoyed your time at OHPR and are seeing such great results! Thank you for taking time out of your day to leave a review.
Fantastic experience: I have had an excellent experience at OHPR! I have been suffering with shoulder and back pain, as well as mobility issues, since 2018 and have been in physio for years. I have made huge strides in my recovery thanks to Dr. Christine Rad. In the few short months I have been seeing her, she has treated me with professionalism and compassion, and I have gone from needing a walker to only needing a cane and walking unassisted about 50% of the time. She truly has gotten to the root of the issue and given me manageable but challenging exercises to target these areas. She is so encouraging and a great listener. It makes you excited for appointments and eager to do your exercises. The online app to track your exercises is great as well, and the admin staff is always kind and accommodating when myself or my husband have had last minute work things come up. I can't recommend this clinic enough!
We are so pleased to hear that you have seen such great progress! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!
Fantastic experience: I was amazed at there fast and prompt service. The Dr’s are caring and patient. They are located on bank stt With lots of parking and a restaurant close by . I was also surprised they were open on Saturdays . That’s what saved me ! Plan on going back very soon Respectfully Deborah Jordan
So happy to hear that you have had a positive experience. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review Deborah!
Fantastic experience: From the first day I noticed a huge improvement. The goal is to stabilize my spine to prevent relapses in the future.
Thank you for the review Maria! We are happy to hear that you have seen such a big improvement!
Negative experience: I needed to change my appointment on short notice because I was not well. I was disappointed to find that they have a strict cancellation policy. Times are difficult for everyone especially those who are sick. It is a pity that they have lost sight of people's situations that are sometimes out of their control. They have lost a loyal customer.
Alice, most facilities have cancellation policies, it is normal practice for it to be enforced when the cancellation occurs within 3 hours. By leaving large gaps in the Doctors schedule, it impacts other patients who could have benefited from that appointment time. We hope you find a facility that caters to your needs and flexibility.
Fantastic experience: Ever since the lockdown I had a lot of mobility issues appear around my body which made life kinda difficult. I thought I’d never move past them but then a friend of mine recommended seeing Dr. Raigoza. I had seen a physio therapist in the past but to me it seemed like they were more interested in getting the most money out of me so that made me a little skeptical. Without a doubt I can say that is not the experience you’ll get from these guys especially Dr. Raigoza, he’s an absolute legend!! Immediately after my first session with him I was already feeling my body loosening up again and not only that he was very understanding when it came to some last minute appointment cancelations. All around 10/10 for me and will definitely keep seeing them in the future.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review Frankny! Very much appreciated!
Fantastic experience: Dr Nardine Bekhit is an excellent Chiropractor. She got me back on my feet and on the golf course within 2 weeks. She actually got down on the floor with me to demonstrate the exercises. She is the consummate professional. I highly recommend her for your treatments.
Wonderful to hear that you are feeling better Terry! Thank you for the kind words and for taking the time to leave a review.
Fantastic experience: I had a back issue out of the blue one day. I setup an appt with Dr. Rich, he was absolutely amazing. I was so glad to have met him. Not only did my pain disappear after the 1st session, I also learned so much from him. He is so patient, so caring and just by speaking to him half the pain goes away. He loves what he does and it just shows. This was my 1st ever appt with a chiropractor and I am very impressed. Thank you so much doc, very grateful for your service.
Such kind words! It is a pleasure working with you Sanketh and we are thrilled to hear that you have had a positive experience. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!
Fantastic experience: My husband and I are patients of Dr. Richar Raigoza since 2020. He treated multiple issues that I had - neck, jaw, back pain. I have migraines and headaches, it happened many times that I came for a session with the pain and it was gone after the treatment. I also visited Dr. Richar during all the time of my pregnancy, I don’t know how my back would have survived without his help. Robyn (massages therapist) is amazing too - such a great relief if you have any pain or stiffness.
Hi Kristina, we are so happy to hear that you have had such a positive experience at our clinic! Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback!
Fantastic experience: My job is very physical and I don't use my legs most of the time when I'm lifting at work and so my lower back has been hurting me for awhile. I ended up getting a back spasm one morning when I woke up and my wife had to drive me to the hospital, I was in so much pain that it hurt to move or breath. After that incident my brother in law recommended me to go and see he's professional chiropractor Dr. Richar for a session and Im really glad that I did! Dr. Richar is so knowledgeable in he's work field, he will walk you through the process of the pain that you might be experiencing so you understand what is going on or what needs to be done to prevent more injuries. My first session he cracked my back and I felt less pain then before, my second session he used acupuncture on my back where my pain was and it went away after. Third session he showed me exercises that I can do at home to help my back from getting hurt again. Thank you Dr. Richar! I will definitely be going back to see you!
Thank you for sharing your experience, Charbel! It has been a pleasure working with you, keep up the good work. The Ottawa Health Team is always happy to help!
Fantastic experience: My therapist was Robyn. She is skilful and best at her job. I felt relieved with her massage techniques something just as I wished for. She loves to share her knowledge and suggested me some yoga asanas that would help cure my problem. Best for the ones looking required enough pressure therapy and physical stress relief!! Thank you Robyn
Wonderful to hear Usha! We are so pleased that you had such a positive experience. Thank you for the kind words!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Christine Rad is the best. Very passionate and knowledgeable about her work. Out of the many chiropractors/physiotherapists I’ve seen, she’s been the absolute best by far. She spotted the source of my problem quickly and put me on a routine that helped me bode great results.
Very flattering feedback Andrew. Thank you for the kind words and it is great to hear that you have had such a positive experience!
Fantastic experience: Dr Rad is great. She was able to identify quickly the issue with my shoulder and proceeded with treatment that improved my condition from day 1. She provided exercises to do daily with an app that makes it easy to follow the instructions. The exercises greatly helped with my recovery that has been much faster than anticipated. I am so happy with the care that I brought my son to be treated for a sports injury. I recommend her to all my friends and family.
That is great to hear Isabelle! Thank you for the kind review and recommendations!
Fantastic experience: Dr Rad was very effective at helping me recover from a significant back injury. Giving me exercises to do at home, in addition to her excellent in-office therapy, she had me quickly back to an active life.
Thank you for the kind words Mike!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Christine Rad is a strong listener who tailored a rehab program based on my needs and preferences. First time at a chiropractor...recommended by my trainer...and I had visions of bone-crunching...wrong! We have focused on muscles, ligaments and other soft tissues, exactly what I wanted. Dr. Rad excels at explaining things, whether in introducing a new exercise or in answering one of my numerous questions (I'm one of those nerds who needs to understand what I'm doing). I can easily see her as a teacher - she has those communications skills. She has adjusted my program over time, as some issues get under control and others have their moment in the spotlight. She is respectful of customer expenses Booking process is easy. Her knowledge of orthotics is an unexpected bonus. Definitely recommended. Les Kom, Ottawa
Thank you for your generous feedback Les! Very much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Christine Rad is fantastic. She is incredibly knowledgeable and thorough in her assessments and treatments, and is really wonderful to work with. The environment in OHPR is wonderful and all of the staff I interacted with were super helpful and kind. I would highly recommend OHPR!
Thank you Kendra! We appreciate your kind words and feedback!
Fantastic experience: One of the best chiropractic institutions. Dr.Rich is fantastic and it's a pleasure meeting him. It was amazing to get some fixing done and he took good care of me. I definitely recommend him and Ottawa health. Jenny is very nice and welcoming. Aaron whom I got my massage therapy from was fantastic and all in all this is something I would vouch and recommend. Go visit and get yourself fixed. :) Cheers OHPR. The best in business.
Thank you for the kind words Ravi. We are so happy to hear that you have had a positive experience at our clinic! It was an absolute pleasure working with you.
Fantastic experience: Dr Rich is one of the best if not the best in the business! I always leave feeling so much better than I did walking in. He has so much amazing knowledge to share and has helped me a lot with my mobility. I would recommend this clinic to absolutely anybody without a second thought. Thanks again team Ottawa Health!
Thank you for the very kind words, Greg. Your comments are very heartfelt! It means the world to us that our patients and friends feel valued and appreciated. Always at your service!
Fantastic experience: Physiotherapist Attila had me on the road to recovery from the moment that I entered the door. The perfect balance of treatment and coaching. Clear communication and thoughtful attention. I recommend him to anyone who hurts themselves playing sports. I'm now speeding around on my ankle again, like it never happened.
Thank you for your kind review Greg! We are happy to hear that you are feeling better!
Fantastic experience: I visited Dr. Ritch after hurting my back at work and he relieved all of my back pain and gave me tips and guidance on how to take better care of my body during work. Very friendly and knowledgeable. 10/10 I would recommend going to see him for your chiropractic needs. And Julia is amazing at the front desk she always makes me feel welcome every time. Thank you guys for the great work
Thank you DeAndre! We appreciate your kind words!
Fantastic experience: when I met Dr. Richar Raigoza I was suffering a terrible pain and unable to sleep at nights. In the first session, He completely listened to me while I was explaining my shoulder situation, taking notes and doing exact tests on my body. Then he started his professional way to heal my pain. After a week, I felt his treatment on my shoulder worked. I really admire his patience, skills and knowledge which helped me a lot to get healed properly. I really recommend Dr.Rick for everyone who does not have hope they can be healed.
Hi Amir, thank you very much for your very kind review. It has been my pleasure to work with you, thank you for trusting us with your health!
Fantastic experience: Front desk staff were very polite and punctual. Area was kept tidy and clean. Saw Dr. Raigoza and he was knowledgeable, friendly and help fix me. I will absolutely be booking with them again!
We are very happy to hear that you had such a great experience and are delighted to be apart of your health journey. Thank you for your kind review, Renee!
Fantastic experience: After going to see a few different Chiropractors, acupuncturist and massage therapist throughout the past 5-10 years, I had almost given up hope and thought that my issues were something I would have to deal with forever. My friend referred me to Dr. Rad and I'm so happy they did. For the first time, I left with a better understanding of why I was experiencing these issues. She does a great job of explaining the treatments in detail, giving you home exercise and techniques to work on, and she really wants you to get better instead of wasting your time and money. 100% would recommend her service!
Thank you for your thoughtful review, Erin. We are happy to hear that you have a better understanding and we greatly appreciate your recommendations!
Fantastic experience: I had a serious chronic tennis elbow injury that lasted over a year. I signed up for therapy at a Physio clinic that worked on my arm three days a week for over two months without success. Then I had someone refer me to OHPR where I worked with a specialist (Richar) that only needed a few short sessions with me, and I can say after only 4 visits, my arm is back to feeling great again! I would highly recommend OHPR, not only for the treatment but the exception service as well. Jason H
Hi Jason, thank you for your positive words. We are happy to hear that you are doing well! It's our pleasure to be apart of your health journey.
Fantastic experience: I am so pleased with the treatment I received from Dr. Rich Raigoza. He listened to reason why I was coming in and I never felt rushed. He combined a variety of treatments to solve my pain, and rechecked me after treatment to make sure I was feeling better. I will definitely be going back and definitely recommend him to anyone looking to see a chiropractor.
Thank you for your kind words, Ferzin, and welcome to the Ottawa Health Team! We are very excited to have you join us, and it was pleasure meeting you.
Fantastic experience: To the team at Ottawa Health: I have had many years of experiences in chiropractic treatments. Being a hairstylist, and leading a very active life style , puts a lot of wear and tear on my body. The first time I met Dr RICHAR RAIGOSA. I felt absolutely comfortable with his attentive and respectful approach. His knowledge, and confidence Cemented my loyalty of being his patient. I recently recommended the team to my older sister Who is 80. And has had accidents that has left her body aching and seizing. The front desk team Julia , and Cory. Were extremely helpful, and accommodating. Dr. RICHAR RAIGOSA again took extreme caution and care in his assessment and gentle treatment. And his follow up is reassuring. She felt incredibly comfortable and satisfied. Since this was her first time with chiropractic experience. She is now more motivated to get better and we’re both extremely thankful to the team at Ottawa Health. I highly recommend OTTAWA HEALTH. To my family , friends. And my clients.
Hi Naji, thank you for the incredibly kind review. It is comments like these that motivate our passion to make a positive impact in people's lives. Thank you for your trust in us!
Fantastic experience: I go to Dr. Christine Rad and she is AMAZING. So kind, thoughtful and considerate. I honestly do not have enough positive things to say about her. I went to a different physio for back pain 2x a week for about a month and a half and barely felt a difference. After two sessions with Dr. Rad, I felt much more limber, flexible and much less pain. She was awesome throughout all the sessions I had with her, taking time to explain the different things she was doing, including why and how. I had some concerns and she took the time to comfort and reassure me with my worries. She is excellent.
Hi Wendy, thank you for your kind review! We are very happy to hear that you saw immediate results. Thank you for your trust in us!
Fantastic experience: Such a great experience!! So professional and good communication. I felt so relaxed after my visit.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Raigoza is amazing. So knowledgeable, and explains everything in a way that makes sense for the average Joe. I’m really excited to continue treatment with him.
Fantastic experience: Dr Rich is my goto when I need relief, correction or just to keep myself nimble. In my field as an automotive technician I do a lot of twisting and lifting. I count on Dr Rich to keep me in flexible working order and he delivers. I was concerned when Dr. Keenan left the business but my confidence was fully restored with my first visit to this very knowledgeable and able practitioner. I highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I went to see Dr.Richar today and wow . things I would of never known ,he educated me on how keep things moving and free of pain . If you have not seen him ,I recommend going for and evaluation . Great place ,great service and amazingly clean .Thanks Dr.Richar
