What Our Patients Say
Amanda L.“I was searching for the best physiotherapy clinic in Oakville after a car accident, and this clinic exceeded my expectations. Dealing with whiplash and neck stiffness was overwhelming, and the insurance paperwork was stressing me out. The team at Wellmax made the entire process so smooth. They helped manage the MVA billing directly and focused entirely on my recovery. Gurmeet used manual therapy to reduce the tension in my neck, and the gentle exercises she prescribed helped me regain my mobility safely. They truly care about their patients and the facility is incredibly clean and modern.”
Verified Patient“Got rear-ended on the QEW near Winston Churchill and started having neck pain, headaches, and dizziness about three days later. I did not know where to start with insurance and treatment. Wellmax handled everything. They explained how the auto insurance coverage works in Ontario, did direct billing so I did not pay anything out of pocket, and started treatment the same week. Gurmeet treated my neck and the dizziness component separately because she said they needed different approaches. After about eight weeks I was back to normal. The whole process from first call to discharge was smooth and I never had to chase paperwork.”
HARPREET B.“Best Physiotherapy clinic. I am going there for my workplace injury and it’s a great experience. Physiotherapist and physio assistant are extremely knowledgeable and always make sure that you get the best treatment, Clinic is very neat and clean. Highly recommend this place!!!”
Ghanshyam S.“I had an excellent experience at Wellmax Physiotherapy for my ankle pain. Gurmeet, the physiotherapist, was very knowledgeable and took the time to understand my condition and create an effective treatment plan. She recommended shockwave therapy, which helped reduce my pain and improve my mobility significantly. Janvi and Manahil the Physiotherapy Assistant were also very friendly, professional, and supportive throughout my treatment sessions. The entire team made me feel comfortable and welcomed every time I visited. The clinic is clean, well-organized, and provides outstanding patient care. I highly recommend Wellmax Physiotherapy to anyone looking for effective treatment for physio and massage.”
Kevin O.“Look no further if you want the best physiotherapy clinic in Oakville. I was dealing with plantar fasciitis that made taking my first steps out of bed every morning absolutely agonizing. I had tried custom insoles and resting, but nothing worked permanently. Dhrushi assessed my foot mechanics and put together a great plan using shockwave therapy. I also saw Cynthia for deep tissue massage on my tight calf muscles. The combination of their treatments worked wonders. I am finally walking normally again. They are honest, professional, and do not pressure you into endless treatment packages.”
Robert K.“Wellmax is truly the best physiotherapy clinic in Oakville. I developed a bad case of tennis elbow from working with my hands, and my grip strength was completely gone. Dhrushi took her time during the initial visit to explain the healing process for tendons. My personalized plan included hands-on therapy, shockwave treatments, and a practical exercise routine I could easily do at home. The inflammation went down faster than I expected, and my arm feels strong again. The front desk staff is always welcoming, and my appointments always started right on time. Highly recommend this place to anyone in pain.”
Morenita Z.“I came to see Gurmeet and Dhrushi at wellmax after my thumb and wrist injury at work under wsib. They took time to assess and explain everything to me and time i started with wellmax, I am feeling so much better and pain is less. Gurmeet’s hands on technique and manual therapy is amazing and knowledgeable. I see big difference in my condition and movement. Clinic is very clean and very positive that makes me comfortable every time I come here. I truly appreciate work they do and recommend it everyone who is looking for real physio treatment and manual therapy.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a doctor's referral for physiotherapy?+–
No, a referral is not required for physiotherapy in Ontario. Some insurers may require a referral for massage therapy, so it is worth checking your specific plan before your first visit.
What if my insurance doesn't fully cover the visit?+–
You only pay the difference between your coverage amount and the session cost. We will always tell you upfront what your insurance is expected to cover so there are no surprises.
Can you check my coverage before my appointment?+–
Yes, we can verify your benefits and coverage limits if your insurer allows real-time lookup. Call us ahead of your visit and we will confirm what you can expect to pay.
Do you direct bill for pelvic health physiotherapy?+–
Yes, pelvic health physiotherapy is covered under standard physiotherapy benefits for most plans, and we direct bill it the same way as any other physiotherapy session.
Are treatments fully covered?+–
Coverage varies by plan. Many patients receive partial or full coverage for physiotherapy and massage through their extended health benefits, and we help you understand exactly what applies to you.
How long are your appointments?+–
Initial assessments are typically 45 to 60 minutes, followed by 30 to 45 minute follow-up sessions depending on your needs and treatment plan.
How soon can I book an appointment?+–
We offer same-day and next-day appointments whenever possible. You can quickly book online or call us directly at (905) 829-1100. We are open 7 days a week, with Sunday bookings by appointment only.
What happens once I reach my annual insurance maximum?+–
Most extended health plans cap physiotherapy coverage at a set dollar amount or number of visits per year. Once you reach that limit, later sessions are billed to you directly at our standard rate. We track this with you as you go so reaching your maximum is never a surprise, and we can help you plan your remaining sessions around it.
I have coverage through two insurance plans. Can you bill both?+–
In many cases, yes. This is called coordination of benefits, where your primary plan pays first and your secondary plan (such as a spouse’s benefits) can cover some or all of the remaining balance. Bring both policy numbers to your first visit and our front desk team will help coordinate the claims for you.
Does my plan combine physiotherapy with massage or chiropractic under one limit?+–
Some extended health plans group physiotherapy, massage therapy, and chiropractic together under a single combined paramedical maximum, rather than giving each service its own separate limit. This varies significantly by plan, so we recommend confirming with your insurer or asking us to check your specific policy before you begin a multidisciplinary treatment plan.
