In general, I had a positive experience with Better. Majorly, I think this is thanks to the specialist I was going to (Charlie Goodchild). However it is worth noting that all administrative questions like booking, rebooking, insurance handling, sharing after session notes, training plan were done very well too. Also, the gym the clinic uses (Until) is really very good!

I had a great experience with Better. I worked with Charlie over the course of 3 months after a shoulder dislocation. Each session was tailored based on my progress, which helped me to find areas where I was weak and improve them. My shoulder consistently improved over the course of 3 months thanks to Charlie’s help. The gym and facilities in general are also first class.

From my personal experience Charlie was professional, knowledgeable, approachable and incredibly thorough. He diagnosed my injury promptly and due to his expert care, I was back playing quicker than originally anticipated. I highly recommend Charlie and would not hesitate to use him again if needed.

As a passionate runner, I suffered from a severe ankle / foot injury that prevented me not only to run my usual 5K but also to walk without pain. When I started to see Charlie at Better, things changed. The tailored strengthening plan and excercises that I was given, allowed me to recovery in just a few months, returning to my regular routine. After almost 6 months with pain remaining just a long lost memory, I got myself injured again (in the exactly same place), but I was able to get a consultation at Better the next day. Needless to say that I was able to make a full recovery after a couple of weeks. Trust me, pain goes away because Better never ends!

My orthopedic surgeon referred me to Charlie Goodchild at Better for physio regarding my second ankle lateral ligament repair surgery. I am incredibly thankful to Charlie for getting me back on my feet again. From crutches to a boot to a splint to walking on my own, Charlie provided me with excellent care, advice and support over a five-month period. Not only did he provide expert advice on getting my ankle back into shape, he also was a good listener when I had concerns about the healing process. I'm back to participating in all of the fitness classes and activities I had only dreamed about completing before my surgery, and I credit Charlie for helping me reach my goals.
