How Specialist Referrals Work
Referral
Received
Care begins once we receive a referral from your physician, physiotherapist, or chiropractor with a valid practitioner ID.
Referral Review & Waitlist
Our clinical team reviews and triages your referral based on clinical need, then places you on the appropriate waitlist. From there, our care coordination team will call to schedule your initial consultation. This step applies to specialist referrals only — allied health services don't require a referral and can be booked directly online.
Consultation appointment with a triage physician
A comprehensive assessment is conducted by our multidisciplinary team.
Care Plan &
Next Steps
Following your assessment, you'll receive a comprehensive treatment plan, which may include diagnostic imaging, pain management, injections, physiotherapy, specialist referral (e.g., physiatry), or surgical referral

I had an amazing experience at Access Orthopaedics after tearing my ACL and meniscus while skiing in January. I was referred by urgent care and expected long wait times for imaging and surgery, but the care I received was incredibly fast and compassionate. Dr. Duce was kind, understanding, and clearly very dedicated to his patients. He initially arranged an MRI within three weeks, but during a follow up he felt that wasn’t soon enough and made calls to move it up to that same week. He even called me himself later that day to confirm the new appointment. I had my results within days and he arranged for me to see a surgeon immediately after my appointment. I’m incredibly grateful for how much he advocated for my care. Thank you as well to Dr. Lemmex for fitting me into your busy schedule for a same day surgical consult. He was patient, thorough, and answered all my questions. My surgery was scheduled quickly and actually moved up even sooner after a follow up visit. On surgery day he made what could have been a very stressful experience feel calm and reassuring, even being mindful about the scars that would be left on my leg tattoo. I truly felt I was in very capable hands. It’s now three days since surgery and my pain has been minimal. I know recovery will take time, but thanks to the incredible team at Access Orthopaedics I’m already on the road back to my active life. All of the staff were friendly and supportive, and a special thank you to Stephanie Ford for answering my many questions with such kindness and knowledge. I’m incredibly grateful to everyone at this clinic and would highly recommend them. The care and advocacy I received made a huge difference in getting me back on track so quickly.Posted on Google![]()

I visited with Dr. Michael Amatto for my chronic patellofemoral pain with full depth fissuring of my cartilage on both knees. My experience with other physiatrists at other practices prior to Dr Amatto had been quite dismissive and left me feeling rushed, not listened to, and disheartened. That was not at all the case with Dr Amatto. He took the time to listen to me, validate my experience, answer my questions and made me feel like a human and not someone to just check off before he gets to the next patient. His demeanor is friendly and I felt like he wanted to be there to help me out. I left my appointment feeling hopeful for the first time in a long time.Posted on Google![]()

Rachelle has been exceptional to work with. She is incredibly knowledgeable and talented. She has helped me to heal from an injury that multiple other physiotherapists were unable to improve.Posted on Google![]()

I am so grateful to be under the care of Dr. Brett Waganast (Physiatrist) and Rachelle (Physiotherapist) at Access Orthopaedics. They are compassionate, professional and really listen. The diagnostic imaging technicians, the reception staff and the radiologists are also great! I highly recommend this clinic!Posted on Google![]()

Been coming to Access Orthopediacs now for the past 10 months. Dr. Duce was terrific and helped me through my ruptured achillies journey. I’m now working with Rachelle in the physio department. Great understanding with this type of injury and is getting me back to almost 100%! 10/10 ????Posted on Google![]()

I recently met with Dr Mackey regarding surgery on my shoulder. I can't recommend her enough. Her professionalism and overall attentiveness was nothing short of amazing. She listened with true enthusiasm and answered all my questions eloquently. She outlined a path forward and suggested options for me while I wait for surgery. I came away with the idea that she had my best interest at heart and I truly appreciated that. Thank you Dr Mackey and I look forward to my next visit!Posted on Google![]()

Fantastic experience! I had shoulder pain for a year. Tried lots of different exercises and remedies. Different physiotherapy. Nothing worked. 3 sessions with Jack and the pain was gone. Cannot recommend more!
