I have been using Excel Physiotherapy for a number of years for various sporting and other injuries. They are always very professional during consultations and clear with the diagnosis providing excellent post appointment exercises to speed up rehabilitation. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them - and have done so on many occasions.

Excel physiotherapy
I have been suffering from neck and shoulder pain from a riding accident from years ago and never managed to get the issue under control.
I had many visits with different physios and Chiropractors with poor results.
Then I found Gary one of the best physio I could have a wish to meet. The fact that he listens and focuses on the problems, is healing.
Someone that cares for his patients.
He gave me a clear exercise plan to follow and I started to see results fast. He is very professional and inspires you to change.
I am very grateful to him and his lovely team, who are also

Gary and Excel Physiotherapy are the best Physiotherapy practice in the locality / South East. I have seen Gary for sport related injuries and have always been met with an accommodating team, approach and logical approach to recovery. A number of my family have also had the benefit of receiving treatment and are all the better for seeing such a professional. Great , clear communication along with the best treatment , I have seen a number of Physio's and Gary's approach and knowledge delivers an all around approach that is rare and beneficial for recovery. Wholly recommend Excel Physiotherapy.

Would highly recommend Gary to anyone looking for a physio. I’m a competitive Irish dancer and compete at World Championship level. I’ve seen Gary for multiple different injuries and weaknesses over the years and he is always so professional. Gary identifies the root of the problem, explains it clearly, and recommends targeted exercises to strengthen specific areas. This has enabled me to continue dancing and go on to win British National and All Ireland championships. Thanks to Gary for all his knowledge and expertise!

Couldn't ask for a better service from the reception staff and team at Excel Physiotherapy and Acupuncture. Gary has been so patient with me, working collaboratively with me to help sort out the problems with my back. I've been to many different physios over the years and have a sports background but can honestly say Gary is one of the best. Highly recommended. Thank you all!

Went to the clinic with a muscular imbalance and pains in my knees. After a couple of sessions with Gary the muscle imbalance was rectified. Had a few more sessions concentrating on strengthening exercises for my knees and they are now pain free. Would highly recommend. Very friendly practice and very professional service. Everything was explained in detail. So pleased I went. Many Thanks

Highly recommend this practice. Gary is a very professional, friendly and expert physio whom I had been recommended to by a friend he explained not only how but why I need to keep up the exercises for my recent take up of running to avoid possible injury (the reason why I had to see him for possible stress fractures to both feet which thankfully turned out not to be the case!)
The practice is very clean and the staff efficient and helpful
