Before visiting the team at Dynamic Health and Performance, I was suffering from chronic lower back pain which severely affected my ability to compete at the NCAA level.  Every morning, simply getting out of bed and putting my socks on seemed to be too daunting of a task.  After working for only two months with the team, we were able to immensely reduce the pain I was experiencing in my lower back.  I had exhausted every option before going to see Dynamic Health and Performance, including having X-Rays, MRI’s, and seeing sports medicine specialists, spine specialists and orthopedic surgeons.

Dr. Fryer was able to properly diagnose my problem within a couple visits, whereas the rest of the medical profession was unable to provide any answers for over a year and a half.  Not only has the pain basically subsided, they have made me more muscular, more flexible and ultimately a better athlete.  Simply stated, Dynamic Health and Performance has saved my collegiate hockey career.

Dr. Fryer has helped me with many injuries in the past several years as my team Doctor for the Oakville Blades.  Most recently he has rehabilitated my knee after ACL reconstruction surgery in March of 2008.  I suffered the injury from an awkward hit playing hockey in Janurary.  Dr. Fryer put in countless hours even before my surgery.  From finding me the quickest MRI, the best surgeon in the area and making sure I was strong and ready for the surgery (pre-habilitation). 

Several days after the surgery I began my rehabilitation at Dynamic Health and Performance.  For the next six months it was my second home, working hard in order to be ready for this year's hockey season.  With lots of hard work, Dr. Fryer's encouragement and knowledge I was able to make a full recovery months before my expected recovery date.

During my entire experince and still to date Dr. Fryer has been a phone call away.  I want to thank him and Dr. Smeaton for everything they have done for me; I would not be where I am without their help.

 When I first met Dr. Ben Fryer I had multiple injuries from years of improper training as a triathlete and a swimmer. Dr. Fryer took the time to develop a strength training program that worked on my areas of weakness to ensure that chronic overuse injuries stopped occurring. He then helped me develop a better training program to ensure that the required distances for swimming, biking and running were met without causing injury. He also took the time to analyze my running technique and was able to determine where I was inefficient and how to fix this. From his excellent care I was able to compete for Canada at the World Triathlon Championships injury free. His dedication, problem solving ability and desire for me as an athlete to be able to compete at my highest potential was absolutely second to none.

I'm a 58 year old, fairly active man and was diagnosed with arthritis in my right knee about 10 years ago.  Over time, I have developed muscle pain and tightness in my hamstrings as well as sciatic pain in my right leg.  This injury has limited my ability to sit at my desk for long periods of time, my workout activities as well as the amount of time I am able to drive in a car.

For the last 3+ years I have seen various therapists (a chiropractor, osteopath, massage therapist etc.) for "help" but it wasn't until someone referred me to the team at Dynamic Health and Performance that I began to feel better. 

My quality of life, as it pertains to my sitting at my desk, working out and driving, has improved by at least 50% due to the plan of management and exercise program put together for me by the team of professionals at Dynamic Health & Performance.

Thanks guys!

I used to work out on a regular basis, but over the past several years I have neglected my health.  As a result, I began feeling lethargic, I was out of breath after climbing staris, and I became very dissatisfied with my overall health.  When I first went ot Dynamic Health and Performance for a consultation, my goal was to complete a 5K run and to build strength and endurance.  Dr. Jeff Weekes tailored a program that would help me achieve my goals. 

The program, which is periodically modified to keep me challenged, is one that I can easily follow at home.  I am thrilled with the results and have developed a much healthier lifestyle.  I not only feel better, but my friends and colleagues have also noted a positive change in me.  Thank you Dr. Jeff!

When I first went to Dynamic Health and Performance, I was going to turn 50 in a year, but felt many years older than that.  I had no energy and was definately out of shape.  My lack of physical activity was affecting my day to day life as well as my work as an educator.  I needed to find a way to feel better about myself and develop the energy to successfully handle the daily tasks and expectations of the workplace.  Dr. Jeff Weekes provided me with both the motivation and conditioning training to reach this goal.  I feel that I am now on the right track for a healthier life-style.  Thanks to Dr. Weekes' instruction and encouragement, it is a life-style that I know I can continue to maintain.  I may be 50, but now I feel much younger and fefinately more energetic!

 I had suffered with chronic back pain for over 6 years due to ruptured discs L4-S1.  I could not walk for more than 10 feet without support and was reliant on pain medication to get through the day.  I had various doctors and therapists and underwent a variety of treatments, but obtained no releif or improvement.

Naturally, based on past experience, I believed that I would never be pain free again.  I knew from the first consultation with Dr. Fryer that this time would be different.  He emphasized that the goal should be about improving the whole person not just treating the individual symptoms.  Dr. Fryer is very knowlegeable about the spine, and the nervous and muscular systems.  His thorough diagnostic assessment identified other problems that contributed to the pain that had not previously been identified by the other healthcare professionals.  He was extremely patient in answering all my questions, ensuring I had a full understanding of the treatments being provided and addressing all my concerns.  I appreciated his positive encouragement which helped me to persevere through the treatment plan and focus on the ultimate goal.  Dr. Fryer used a variety of treatment methods and incorporated exercises that helped to get me active again.

When I reached intermittent very low pain and no pain days, I continued my rehabilitation with Dr. Weekes for personalized fitness training, focusing on core strength and conditioning.  Dr. Weekes ensures I always use the correct form.  He provides modified exercises that give me the same benefits of regular exercises while minimizing the risk of recurrence of the injuries.  I have complete trust in his expertise and have made tremendous progress under his care.

I am now pain free and in the best physical shape that I have ever been.  I am especially happy that I am able to onc again fully participate in all activities.  For these reasons, I will be forever grateful to Dr. Fryer and Dr. Weekes.

 I first met Dr. Fryer as a result of a referral for a couple of injuries that no other place could even diagnose, never mind treat or heal.  He played a major role during my minor midget season and I was able to overcome these injuries due to his incredibly fast and successful treatments.  Prior to the OHL draft, I was playing in the OHFs with the Burlington midgets and suffered a torn ligament in my shoulder.  The doctors at the tournament volunteered to treat me but I told them that I already had my expert in Dr. Fryer and would await his advice and treatment.  He took a look at it and within a matter of seconds made a diagnosis and was treating it.  Thanks to his countless hours of treatment, my shoulder is not only completely healed but stronger and more muscular than before the injury.  He is always there when you need him.

Dr. Weekes is another person who has helped me with this injury.  He has also significantly bettered my overall fitness level with his second to none personal training.  He is a great trainer and motivator, but even a better person.

Over the past three months, I joined Dynamic Health and Performance for off-ice training.  I would say that it was the best decision with regards to my training program, I have ever made.  Dr. Fryer and Dr. Weekes are two of the most intelligent and caring people I have ever met.  They're superior knowledge of how the body works and how to properly and specifically train eath person according to their desired needs is superior to any place I've ever trained at.  I am excited every day I go to train with these guys because they know what they are doing and they have significantly improved my strength, speed and conditioning.  The difference in my overall shape and conditioning is night and day to when I first started with Dynamic Health and Performance.  They have played a major role in the athlete I am today.
