College Of Physiotherapists of Ontario

Is there any evidence that the practical exam actually has any benefit for public safety? Because it seems that the only province not mandating it has a 3x decreased rate of physio incidents per physio population compared to Ontario. No other developed country has this type of exam for their physiotherapists and yet they continuously produce highly competent and safe physiotherapists - Where is the evidence that the Canadian practical exam, aside from bringing in nearly $5,000,000 in revenue for those running it, actually provides benefit for the public?

Horrible governing body. They do not care about their members. During a time of a pandemic they do not know how to mandate a suspension of all care just like all other professions. They do not care about their members. Do not bother reaching out them. They give you political answers. Very disappointed in this governing body. We have a social responsibility to flatten the curve. I guess this college does not know what that means.

As a member, I appreciate part of their need to protect the public. Part of their mandate against any form of review from clients (testimonials) seems to contradict their mandate. Their claim is that all therapists are equal. I have used reviews for movers, restaurants, movies, products, doctors, and trades. Somehow, physios are different. To make it more of a farce, if a company does not change their advertising criteria to comply, and the owner is not a physiotherapist, the employee will be prosecuted (either lose your job or face disciplinary action). Petty.

I wish I could have rate them in negative 👎 They are miserable people who are slow like snails It's been more then 3 weeks after applying for license still they did not issue me my license
