Fantastic experience: peter has a keen interest in understanding your injury and has successfully treated a number issues over the last couple of years for myself and my sons.I would recommend Peter .
Hi Derek thanks for your kind review.
Best Wishes
Peter Physiotherapist
Fantastic experience: First of all I want to thank Mr Petre Keane for putting me back on the right track after suffering from pain on my neck and shoulder which led to numbness on my fingers. Few sessions and I was like new. Still some to go but feels good to be back to normal. From the first call and through all the sessions he’s been top professional. I won’t hesitate to recommend to anyone that needs. Thanks so much Mr Peter Keane
Hi Val, thank you for a great recommendation. I am happy to help you to recover from your injuries.
Regards
Peter
Fantastic experience: Peter is a great Physio. In my case he performed tests to diagnose the exact root of the issue, gave a treatment, then did some rehab exercises with me, then sent me a video of the exercises to do at home. Very thorough and resolved my knee issue in 2 sessions.
Thanks very much John, delighted to know you have recovered well. Peter
Negative experience: I brought my daughter to Mr.Keane in January and he said she needed insoles so I paid for them there and then and was told they would be ready for collection in a day or two, it is now nearly three months later and we still haven't received the insoles. My husband and I have both called to Mr.Keanes office, phoned and emailed on numerous occasions and have been fobbed off with excuses and apologies everytime, the last time I spoke to Mr.Keane was the 20th of March and I asked for a refund but he once again said he was sorry about the delay and would post the insoles out to me that day after all our failed attempts to collect them ourselves and surprise surprise they never arrived. I have since had to bring my daughter elsewhere and pay again to get her sorted. Very disappointing experience and an absolute waste of money.
Hi Sam my apologies that you were not happy with the product. I refunded you your money as you were not satisfied.There was a delay unfortunately beyond my control that has now been rectified with the company I deal with.
Kind Regards
Peter Keane
Negative experience: I had high hopes for my appointment with Peter, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a waste of time and money. I called in advance to explain that I had been dealing with ongoing issues in my right foot, specifically related to an old injury and that I had recently increased my running distance. I was looking for a thorough examination and, if necessary, a referral for an MRI to address the root cause of the problem. I drove over an hour to see him, took time off work, and when I arrived, the session lasted just 20 minutes. During this brief interaction, he repeatedly called me by the wrong name, which felt unprofessional and dismissive. As for the examination, he had me walk up and down the hallway and stretch my foot. After that, he suggested I would need orthotics, at a cost of €300, and did not even attempt a proper gait analysis. When I asked if there were any other treatment options before resorting to orthotics, he told me, “If you were 18, maybe, but not at your age.” That was an incredibly dismissive comment, especially given that I had explained my fitness level and goals. I was charged €75 for this brief and unhelpful consultation, with no real examination or plan to address the underlying issue. I sought a second opinion and they arranged for an MRI. The MRI revealed that I have a stress fracture in my right foot and would need 6 weeks of recovery in a boot, followed by rehab. Peter’s approach felt more like a sales pitch for a service I didn’t require rather than a genuine attempt to diagnose or treat the issue. I strongly feel he took advantage of my situation and wasted my time, ultimately charging me for something that was completely unnecessary. I would not recommend this physiotherapist to anyone.
Hi Sharon sorry to hear the harsh view. As you can see from my previous reviews I take the utmost care in dealing with my patients. When you arrived at the clinic I screened your gait and foot and I mentioned one of the possibilities was orthotics to recover. As you said your ongoing old foot problem was going on for a long time. Your foot was not swollen and you told me you had increased you running after the old foot injury. I gave you a rehab programme to comply with and to gradually progress. From an old injury which you complained off I did not suggest anything proactive. As it was an old injury a hairline fracture would have healed and it was not my fault you progressed as you said your running distance which was not my advice.
I hope your discontent is resolved and a simple follow up discussion would have appropriate.
Regards
Fantastic experience: Mr Keane assisted me with an emergency appointment on the day of my inquiry, and accommodated my awkward working hours for all follow-ups. He is decisive and targeted in his treatment approach. He also provides advice regarding realistic and effective maintenance stretches/exercises to complete at home. I am pain-free with an objectively stronger knee than I arrived with. Thank you for an excellent and comprehensive service.
Thanks very much Jessica!
Happy to help you!
Fantastic experience: After struggling with a debilitating rotator cuff injury for nearly eight months, I had reached a point of total frustration. I tried various medications, exercises, and other physical therapy programs, but my pain remained unchanged and I could barely lift my arm. Everything changed when I met Mr. Peter. Thanks to his profound knowledge and experienced approach, Within just five sessions, my pain has completely vanished, and I have fully returned to my normal activities. Mr. Peter is truly one of the best physiotherapists I have ever encountered.He is an exceptional therapist with a remarkable talent for healing.
Hi Bibin,thank you so much for your kind words!It was my pleasure helping you return to your former self.
Best of luck
Kind Regards
Peter Keane
Fantastic experience: I had plantar fasciitis recently and attended Waterford Physio and Sports Injury clinic . I was seen, diagnosed and treated promptly. Peter is very professional and treated my injury successfully with therapy and exercises . I would highly recommend Peter for any injuries requiring physiotherapy.
Thank you Lucy. Am happy to help you with your Plantar Fasciitis.
Kind Regards
Peter
Fantastic experience: I went to Peter after recent surgery and he has helped so much! I am just about back to normal only after a few sessions, would not be as near as recovered as what I am now without Peter’s help. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a physio
Thank you very much Lauren. Delighted to be of help to you.
Kind Regards
Peter
Negative experience: I gave one star which was the only way to access the review box. Peter Keane did not turn up for my 10 am appointment in Dungarvan. I phoned but he didn't reply or return my call. Apparently this is a very common occurrence. I made many arrangements to get the free time to attend so am totally disgusted with him and certainly would advise people not to bother. In response to Peter's reply to this review I am sorry there was a misunderstanding. However, as we had discussed the location, which is in Kelly's Pharmacy, at the rear of the shop, I am surprised that he thought it was Waterford. I had no missed calls or text message.
Hi Rosemary, my sincere apologies for any miscommunication we had as I had you booked in for the Waterford Clinic not the Dungarvan clinic and had tried to contact you when I realised there was a miscommunication between us. It is unfortunate and regretful you had to taken time out to make the appointment and you are of the apparent hearsay that this is a common occurrence . I run professional physiotherapy service with sound integrity and genuine customer care. I have never met you before and I am sure you are a nice person. I do hope that your problem has been resolved and wish you all the best with your health.
Kind Regards
Peter Keane

Fantastic experience: I want to thank Peter, for helping me get relief from knee pain that’s been bothering me for quite awhile. From the very first session, he took the time to carefully assess the issue and explained everything to me clearly. His treatment plan, exercises and guidance made a huge difference. I’ve noticed real improvement in my mobility and comfort. I really appreciate Peter‘s professionalism and patience throughout the process. I feel like I’m on the right track now and it’s such a relief to be moving without the constant discomfort. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a Physiotherapist
Fantastic experience: Due to a fall i had a number of issues that needed attention, Peter identified the problems and gave me numerous exercises to do, as he showed me how to do the exercises he videoed them and sent them to me so I could do them properly at home, very professional and would highly recommend.
Hi Michael thanks for your kind review. My pleasure helping you.Regards
Peter
Fantastic experience: After suffering from stiffness and some pain after recent hip surgery I made an appointment with the Waterford Physiotherapy Clinic Ballinakill. Peter was very helpful and professional! He explained each exercise to me and sent me a video recording for use at home! I am now much more mobile and improving all the time! I highly recommend him!
Thank you very much Myra!
Fantastic experience: I went to see Peter because I was experiencing pain and discomfort in my pelvic area that was affecting me when I walked. Peter diagnosed my problem at the first session and he explained to me what was causing it. He gave me a set of exercises that I could access on my phone while doing them at home. After a week of doing the exercises the pain in the back of my leg had alleviated and I was able to continue with my walks. I would highly recommend Peter. A professional and friendly service.
Great to hear from you Tony! Many Thanks for the compliment
Peter
Fantastic experience: Well worth it
Thanks Frank !
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Peter. I found him to be extremely professional whilst also being very friendly and approachable. I was helped very quickly back to full mobility after suffering several months of back ache. I would not hesitate to recommend Peter.
Thanks very much Sheila.Glad to help you.
Peter
Fantastic experience: Professional, friendly service. Very helpful to have the exercises recorded, then emailed to me. Great improvement on an ankle ligament injury after 1 week of physio with Peter. 2nd visit, ankle restrapped and ankle continues to improve. It's great to have an exercise/physio plan to work with for long term use.
Much appreciated Annette! Delighted to help you.
Peter
Fantastic experience: This man know's his stuff, I'd recommend him to anyone that needs any physical therapy. Currently 2 sessions in another 3 to go. Money well spent.
You are very kind Linda.
Thanks Peter
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Peter enough, professional and works miracles. Knows exactly what to do and how to do it.
Thanks so much Sarah! Much appreciated!
Peter
Negative experience: I met Peter for the first session, he took 70 euro and said he could fix my issue. Then he didn't show up to my next appointment and won't respond to my messages.
Hi Nick, I had you booked in to my clinic on the 19th April and when you did not attend, I tried to contact you but got no reply.
I hope you are well and wish you the best.
Regards
Peter
Fantastic experience: When I first went to Peter, I was in extreme pain with my neck which had been in total spasm for at least two weeks. My doctor prescribed lots of different drugs which had little to no effect. I stopped taking the tablets. After a few sessions with Peter, who initially took all of my medical details, the pain eased and now I am totally indebted to Peter's knowledge and professionalism for being pain free. I could not recommend Peter highly enough.
Thanks very much Adrian !
Stay well and contact me anytime for advice.
Peter
Fantastic experience: I was impressed with my experience at Waterford Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic. Peter took the time to thoroughly assess my needs and developed a personalised treatment plan that addressed my specific concerns. In addition to the targeted treatment, Peter provided me with practical advice and exercises to maintain and improve my overall health. It's clear that he prioritises not just immediate relief but also long-term health.
Thanks Jerome for a lovely review. Happy New Year to you and your loved ones!
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend. Hurt my back training for a marathon and Peter had me pain free and back running within a week
Thanks a lot Freddie! Good Luck with the Marathon.
Regards Peter
Fantastic experience: Peter is an extremely helpful, patient, accommodating and caring clinician, who listens! He is very much solution focused in the least amount of visits, which I found most reassuring. As someone who has attended many, CPs, PTs, Chiropractors, etc, over the years, I can highly recommend Peter.
Thank you William!
Fantastic experience: Peter was very professional and gave me a quick diagnosis on my knee issues. I would definitely go back to him again.
Thanks Adrian! Much appreciated!
Fantastic experience: I went to Peter with pain in my neck that gave me great discomfort in the mornings in particular of unknown origin. Across 2 sessions with thorough massage of the painful area and dry-needling split over 2 weeks, I'm pain free. Peter's recorded video of me doing the stretches required to prevent pain like this in the future are clear and will ensure I don't misinterpret my stretch routine going forward. Peter is professional, patient and focuses on my personal issue. I would recommend Peter for physio in a heart beat.
Thanks very much Jonathan !
Fantastic experience: I am very happy with the treatment I received from Peter. I also got my initial appointment on very short notice which was was much appreciated. I would recommend this practice.
Thanks so much Thea! Peter
Fantastic experience: I've just come back from a visit at Waterford physiotherapy,and I cannot speak highly enough of the treatment I received. From making the initial phone call on Thursday I was seen Saturday morning by Peter. The man is amazing. He explains everything to you about the pain your in, he then sets about to fix it. Thanks for everything Peter, my back has never felt better.
Thank you Eddie ! Much appreciated.
Peter
Fantastic experience: Straightforward and professional service. Peter is a gent and knows his stuff. Highly recommend.
Thanks a lot Dylan. Pleasure helping you out! Peter
Fantastic experience: From the initial enquiry about making an appointment the experience has been completely hassle free. Peter returns calls promptly and was very welcoming at initial visit where he did a thorough assessment and then explained what my issues were and began treatment immediately. Towards the end of the session he videoed me doing exercises which were then emailed to me so I could continue making progress at home. I have had rwo sessions and am really feeling the benefits. I would recommend anyone with physio needs to contact Peter.
Hi Mairead. What a kind review by you. Thank you so much!
Peter
Fantastic experience: Peter gave me a speedy appointment and first class treatment giving me instant relief. A true professional I would highly recommend him . Sean Murphy
Thanks a lot Sean ! Much appreciated!Peter
Fantastic experience: I would highly recomend Physio Motion 3D , I've been with Peter for treatment and found him excellent , he has tailored a stretching program to suit my particular back problem and that has been supported by a video of myself doing these stretches which I find of great help in continuing to do these stretches in the correct manner . Very professional service and highly recommend. Robert Butler.
Thanks Robert for your kind Review!
Peter
Fantastic experience: Very impressed with Peters approach to my injuries. The video exercises he sends immediately after the session help a lot. Would recommend to anyone.
Cheers and thanks for your kings. Review! Peter
Fantastic experience: Great experience, very helpful and great listeners.
Thanks a lot Molly . A great result with your shoulder!
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Waterford Physiotherapy enough! After 6 months of chronic shoulder pain, three failed visits to other physiotherapists, Peter quickly, effectively and accurately diagnosed my issue. The diagnosis was quickly followed by dry needling which was extremely effective in releasing my shoulder and the months of pain that went with it. Peter followed this process up with some light massage before strapping up my shoulder with kinesiology tape which provided great support and comfort. Peter then taught me four exercises to rehabilitate the shoulder and videoed me performing the exercises which was subsequently emailed to me. I found this to be highly valuable when trying to recall the exercises days later. Peter's 25 years of experience is obvious, he is a true master and a rare talent. I returned for a second session a week later and I trust Peter to resolve an issue that has plagued me for years. While I am still in the early days of treatment and rehab, I cannot express how significant a change that just one visit to the clinic brought to my life.
Positive experience: Superb physio. Got to source of problem. Would 100% recommend this physio.
Fantastic experience: I can see an improvement in my issue after a couple of weeks of doing Peter's exercises. He emails a video of the exercises which is very handy.
Fantastic experience: I recommend this physiotherapist to everyone, He is the best physiotherapists I have sver been to. Explains everything relating to your case "injury", and how to go about it to fix it, etc. He is really helpful and understanding. He knows his stuff, He is really good, professional.
Fantastic experience: Great job very good experience
Fantastic experience: As I sprang out of my relatively low slung car this afternoon, the first thing that came to mind was Peter Keane!!! I have just completed two sessions with Peter on my back. He was absolutely outstanding. His professionalism, his knowledge was second to none. Having worked on my back both manually and with some space age looking machinery, he then demonstrated exercise, got me to do them as he recorded and then emailed to me. His emphasis is on getting the client as mobile as possible as fast as possible and giving you the tools to stay mobile. He is not in the business of bringing you back time after time. This to me also demonstrates a real professional.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Peter for anyone requiring the services of a physio. Suffered with lower back problems on and off for years but after my first visit, Peter treated the problem area and then advised on the best exercise programme to strengthen this area. Delighted with the results.
Fantastic experience: I just moved to Waterford and have working from home at a desk for the last 18 months. My neck was super tense. After just one session I feel looser and no pain in my neck. Peter is great. Very professional, explains everything in understandable language and makes a video to help you do your exercises. Delighted to have found a great physio here
Fantastic experience: Great results from Peter would highly recommend him
Fantastic experience: Peter was very quick to get me in and guide me through a program of recovery. Very professional in his approach and was very attentive to the fact I was in discomfort with my injury. High recommend him for any physiotherapy issues.
Fantastic experience: Wow …sorted me out with lower back pain. He’s worth 6stars!
Fantastic experience: Excellent professional and friendly service from Peter. I experienced a significant reduction in pain after my 1st session and appreciated the time spent making sure I understood follow-up exercises etc. I would highly recommend this service.
Fantastic experience: Excellent friendly and professional service. Delighted with improvements after only first session. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for physiotherapy services.
Fantastic experience: Went in with much pain, Peter was quick to find it was Hip trouble worked on the problem area and after just to visits its so much better, and he gave me a exercise program on video that I find very helpful to do at Home.
Fantastic experience: Went in with lower back pain, Peter was quick to find it was leg and hip was the cause, worked on the problem area, give me a program to work on at home in a handy video so I knew what to do and not forget anything. Thanks Peter.
Fantastic experience: Great service from Peter,spent a good hour(unlike other places I tried)assessing,working on me and coming up with a plan to help a lower back problem.Very professional friendly service.
Fantastic experience: Was on my 3rd wk of a bout of vertigo when I had my 1st treatment with Peter. He quickly established the cause & ruled out others & explained it all in great detail. The actual physical treatment was enjoyable & relaxing & each stage was explained prior so as to know what to expect & why. I was given exercises which were recorded so I'd remember at home this is a great idea..as I feel often these are forgotten when we go home.He gave me hope that I can be well in a few treatments time as well as knowledge of how to maintain my neck strain in the future to cope with vertigo or hopefully prevent it reoccurring. Felt very comfortable i was in good knowledgeable hands. Looking forward to my next treatment
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, very thorough assessment and the phydeo is brilliant for all the rehab exercises. Would highly recommend Peter.
Fantastic experience: Peter is fantastic at what he does. I have seen many physios over the years and none compare with Peter in terms of the level of service he provides. He really makes sure you leave feeling better and with a clear plan of exercises to do to ensure you continue to feel great! I have struggled for years with issues related to running injuries and I can say with confidence that Peter is your man if you need help!
Fantastic experience: I can honestly say never have I been so impressed with the treatment I received from peter,it was such a relaxed environment he knew exactly what my problem was just by talking and in less then a week the pain I was suffering with for 2 months is gone..
Fantastic experience: Peter Keane is the best around
Fantastic experience: Peter keane great thanks Peter for helping me see you next week lorraine. I feel good nó pain in my neck
Fantastic experience: Excellent
Fantastic experience: I have attended Peter's clinic a number of times with back, shoulder and leg injuries and would strongly recommend him. He has a knack of getting to the root of the problem very quickly and uses a range of effective treatments from strong massage to acupuncture to get the problem sorted as quickly as possible.
Fantastic experience: Treatment is thorough and professional and Peter was very helpful in explaining to me in details about my injuries and the approach he was taking to reduce my discomfort. The detailed recovery plan also provided has helped my recovery so much and I would highly recommend Waterford Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Clinic to anyone looking to avail of a physiotherapist.
Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Waterford Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic highly enough. Peter is very friendly and really knows his stuff.
Thanks Zoe! We always love hearing from happy clients!
