    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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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. 😁😁

    Highly recommend Dr. Rad. I've been to several chiropractors and I can say she goes above and beyond. She's attentive, helpful, available and has many different tools and technics in her pocket to help with what ever the issue is.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

  • 5/5 Stephen S. 6 months ago on Google
    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.

  • 5/5 Murdith M. 5 months ago on Google
    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.

    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.

  • 5/5 Josh G. 4 months ago on Google
    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!!

    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.

  • 5/5 Raymonde P. 5 months ago on Google
    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.

  • 5/5 Matthew B. 1 year ago on Google
    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 !

  • 5/5 Karan C. 1 year ago on Google
    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

  • 5/5 JM J. 11 months ago on Google
    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!

  • 5/5 Karen R. 11 months ago on Google
    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 !

  • 5/5 Georgio B. 1 year ago on Google
    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!

  • 5/5 Tylar B. 1 year ago on Google
    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!

  • 1/5 Alice L. 11 months ago on Google
    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.

  • 5/5 Jessica W. 2 years ago on Google
    Actually it's Jessica's mom Judy Fyffe posting. We are both patients at OHPR. Dr. Rich is fantastic. He knows his profession. I went in with a back injury and he found all my sore spots before I told him. He was very thorough with his initial assessment and made sure there was no other problems. He explained what he was doing before doing it and why. His bedside manner is excellent. He made me feel that my problem was his to solve. I have been only twice and my back feels so much better. He also has given me exercises to do and is looking into a back brace for me to use at work. I'll be back to work in just one week. Thank you Dr. Rich

    Tore my ACL apart playing sports. Post surgery physio with Atilla has made a world of difference in just a short time. Structured plan for recovery, takes you through all the steps and exercises, tailored recovery plan specific to your progress. Other staff on site are also friendly and welcoming

  • 5/5 Wendy L. 3 years ago on Google
    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.

  • 5/5 Hailie P. 1 year ago on Google
    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!

  • 5/5 hannahmfinn 1 year ago on Google
    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!

  • 5/5 Ferzin M. 2 years ago on Google
    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.
