After surgery in 2024, Andrew’s clear weekly goals and constant encouragement were key to my successful recovery. I’m incredibly grateful for his support. Brad has also helped both of my boys fully recover from soccer injuries and return to sport with confidence. We highly recommend this clinic.

I had an overall wonderful experience with Physioworks during my recovery process. I injured my back in January 2025, which led to a gruelling six-month recovery. However, it was made much easier thanks to the kind and friendly staff, who were always informative in answering my questions and guiding me throughout the process. I was most often treated by Dave Francis, who has excellent knowledge and experience, but my positive feedback applies to everyone I encountered during my recovery. The staff were also very flexible with appointments, working around my work and university schedule to make the process as easy as possible for me. In the end, I returned to sport fully recovered and am very satisfied with the care they provided.

I have been attending Physioworks Camberwell for many years, both for small group Pilates and for Physio treatment when required. Amy’s classes in particular have been hugely beneficial, with a varied program explicitly tailored to my ability and needs. Her close attention to detail and constant encouragement is fabulous.

Brought my son to see Dave as he was having trouble with his heels. He had been in pain for years, we had been seeing a sports podiatrist for nearly two years prior with very little relief. Dave was recommended to us by his footy coach and within a month or so the pain has disappeared! So relieved for my son and forever grateful for Dave and Brad. Could not recommend them enough.

I have seen Jonathon for 4months for symptoms relating to my back (sciatic pain, tight calve). He has been fantastic brilliant treatment, listens, motivates and can on what you think is a bad day show you something that you "yes' I'm still ok! Yesterday I presented after an unfortunate incident of a foot drop and after a 3 week stint in hospital/rehab where care was not to his standard - I had no answers no understanding of the surgery! He spent time and gave me hope for my future without an AFO. I've been told by others physioworks have done amazing things!! My partner and I have both seen Jonathon (my partner twice only) he is highly skilled, great people skills! He will get you on the right path! I hiked in Nepal 3 mths post back surgery with his help in 2017! He will tell you truth, tell the enthusiastic to back off to recover. A true asset to physio - very glad he's in my treatment team! Thank you!

I've seen both Madison and Jack, and they’ve each offered outstanding advice and hands-on care that’s really helping me move forward in my recovery."

I’ve been seeing David Francis at Physioworks Pakenham for the past few months, and the results have been incredible. My knee issues, which used to limit my mobility, have significantly improved. I can now run up and down the stairs with little to no flare-ups—a huge change for me! Additionally, my posture has greatly improved under David’s guidance, which has helped alleviate my chronic neck problems. His professional approach, clear explanations, and effective treatment plans have made a big difference in my daily life. Highly recommend Physioworks and David Francis for anyone seeking effective physiotherapy!

I saw Lachlan for some physio work to help with some long term niggles from the gym. He was very professional and has perfected his craft. Seeing Lachlan for one session has already made a drastic improvement to my physical health, impacting my mental health positively also. Looking forward for my next session at Physioworks. Thank you 🙏
