A Huge Thank You to MVP Physiotherapy Silverdale and Fadi 💙

On behalf of our community, I want to extend a massive thank you to MVP Physiotherapy Silverdale, and in particular to Fadi, for being a true pillar of strength and rehabilitation for so many of us. Personally, I’ll never forget the support I received after badly injuring my back in 2022. With Fadi’s guidance and expertise, I was able to turn things around—so much so that this November I swam 30 kilometres, something I never thought possible after that setback. Fadi’s dedication goes far beyond the clinic walls. His generosity in contributing raffle prizes and supporting our events has added joy and opportunity for countless families. It’s this combination of professional care and community spirit that makes MVP Physiotherapy such a valued part of Silverdale. Thank you, Fadi, for your skill, your encouragement, and your unwavering commitment to helping people live stronger, healthier lives. We are truly grateful.

We're swimming for Sick Kids!

We're taking part in Swim for Sick Kids this November to support seriously ill and injured children and their families.

For sick kids staying at Ronald McDonald House in Randwick, they just want their families close as they battle childhood diseases, illnesses and injuries.

On average, it costs $190 to support a sick child and their family for one night at the House so that families can stay for FREE and focus on what is most important, their sick child

Please support our team and help keep families together as they face the most difficult journey of their lives.

Together, we can show these brave and courageous kids that we're fighting for them.

Thank you.
