Our Mission

At the Orthopaedic Institute family of clinics, our mission is simple: to provide exceptional, evidence-based care that helps people of all ages and activity levels move better, feel better, and live better.

We pride ourselves on delivering cutting-edge physiotherapy, sports medicine, orthopaedics, and rehabilitation services with a collaborative, patient-centered approach — across all of our locations.

Our Story

It all began in 2008, when the Niagara Orthopaedic Institute was founded with a vision of bringing advanced, innovative physiotherapy to the Niagara region. Built on the principles of clinical excellence, client-centered care, and continuous education, Niagara quickly established itself as a leader in rehabilitation and injury management.

From there, our team expanded across southern Ontario:

  • Hamilton Orthopaedic Institute launched in 2018, bringing high-performance rehabilitation to the heart of the city.
  • Thorold Orthopaedic Institute opened in 2020, servicing the Niagara Escarpment and surrounding communities.
  • Grimsby Orthopaedic Institute was established in 2024, further expanding our reach along the QEW corridor and connecting Niagara to the Greater Hamilton Area.
  • Highland Orthopaedic Institute, formerly Highland Physio, has been servicing the Dundas, Ancaster, and Hamilton areas since 2000. In 2025, it joined the Orthopaedic Institute Team.

Today, with five full-service clinics, we proudly serve clients from Niagara Falls to Hamilton — and everywhere in between.
