   I've been very much let down and disappointed by Dr Yaso when it came to my herniated lumbar injury. I've felt very dismissed by them and their notes, which has led to lots of frustration with getting cover from ACC. I've stated that I've had continuous lower back pain as well as sciatica nerve pain down both legs with an MRI they sent me to which showed herniation bulging against my spinal cord yet her notes state that the pain I'm getting is caused by something else (which she didn't really describe much about let alone help me figure out what is causing me pain that isnt the obvious hernation) due to an epidural being unsuccessful for my pain treatment. They've let me down stating that there was nothing more they could do to help me. Would recommend getting a 2nd opinion as I will be many months after dealing with Dr Yaso so you can avoid dealing with frustration with ACC in regards to her notes and needing to stress and walk to the ends of the earth to find a doctor that will actually read your notes, listen to you and want to help you properly. I'm quite disgusted and disappointed.

   I had a great experience with Dr Yaso and the team. I had been under treatment with Yaso for a year for ligament fracture. Yaso had helped me throughout the journey and provided me all the support and care I needed beacuse of which I was able to recover quickly. Thanks for the amazing service.

   My experience at this clinic, particularly with Dr. Yaso and the reception staff, was far from satisfactory. I sought treatment for extreme pain in my right arm and was referred to another specialist by Dr. Yaso. However, the reception staff failed to send my referral for 8 weeks, despite me voicing I have a little baby to care for. It wasn't until I followed up that I discovered the referral had not been sent as claimed. When I expressed my frustration to Dr. Yaso's receptionist, I was met with dismissiveness and rudeness. She not only failed to acknowledge the significant delay in my referral but also implied that it was my responsibility to follow up, despite the considerable amount I had already paid for consultations. Moreover, her comment, "You didn't pay, Southern Cross did," was both insensitive and unprofessional. As a paying patient, I expect to be treated with respect and empathy, especially in a medical setting that claims to prioritize patient care. Overall, my experience at this clinic was disappointing and lacking in basic professionalism. I hope that management takes steps to address these issues and improve the quality of service provided to patients in the future.

   As someone who has experienced chronic lower back pain for many years, Adriana Silvestre is one of the most knowledgeable, thorough and compassionate practitioners I have ever encountered. I have felt very fortunate to have her support and particularly appreciate her persistence and advocacy in seeking the root cause of the issue. I would highly recommend Adriana’s practice to anyone especially those with persistent back pain.

   I was referred to Yaso by my GP after a complex series of injuries from car accidents, bike falls and sports left me dealing with concussion, shoulder sprain, neck sprains and so on. While physio had been very helpful at resolving migraines, I was still not getting the mobility back that I wanted. Yaso examined me, gave me important education that re-engaged my motivation at the gym, and then referred me to Adriana Silvestre, conveniently a practitioner at Beckford Sports also. They're a truly one-stop shop. If you see Yaso and don't need Adriana's services go you good thing! But if you happen to need more in-depth instruction, education and holistic advice that goes above and beyond with long appointments that allow you to ask all the questions you need -- and hear all the information as well -- then you're in excellent hands! I've been practising yoga for 20 years, was a full-time yoga teacher for 3 years until injuries held me back. Despite this history, in 3 sessions Adriana has taught me crucial facts about mobility and breathing that I didn't know. She is continually learning the science of body movement and mind / motor control. This is a fast-moving area of science, new techniques and understandings develop frequently, and Dr Silvestre is always up-to-date and able to sift the facts from fiction so you don't have to, distilling it down into simple, practical recommendations. She really is a storehouse of knowledge that is logical, holistic, simple enough, easy to implement and above all effective! The hands-on treatment, exercises and instruction that Adriana has given me take a few minutes each day and have already (a month into treatment) relieved a lot of pain and tension from my body. Better yet, they often lead to permanent improvements in body movement and pain reduction. Information is power and if you're lucky enough to have access to Adriana's expertise, you can turn your current difficulties into strengths because you will know more about your body and how to move, breathe, sleep well and that will be helpful throughout the rest of your life. Excellent team, great results!

   Highly recommend Adriana and her treatment, acupuncture sounds scary, but you hardly notice it and it helps so much. She is very knowledgeable and explains things so you can understand them. She is friendly and fun to hang out with while she treats you.

   I saw Adriana when a disc prolapse became acute, I saw Adriana at Beckford Sports, I went from being totally incapacitated to regaining a huge amount functionality and mobility that kept me comfortable until surgery. Adriana's approach was amazing and her holistic approach gave me guidance on how to move and breath along with the physical treatments, needling, stretching and a whole range of things. Highly recommend her services.
