Talia Brott’s Story

A woman standing on a winners' podium with a gold medal around her neck, pointing upward with both index fingers, at the World Aquatics Masters Championships in Singapore 2023.

Gold Medalist, World Aquatic Championships
Quebec Masters Record Holder (45–49, 50m Backstroke)

“When I first saw Dr. Coughlin, I was struggling with a complex tear in my right meniscus, a focal oblique tear in my left, and mild degenerative issues in both knees. The pain was constant and made training nearly impossible.

After PRP and viscosupplimentation injections in both knees, the difference was incredible…within weeks, I was moving pain-free and off painkillers.

Just a few months later, I won gold at the World Aquatic Championships in Singapore and broke a 16-year-old Quebec Masters record. I can say with complete confidence that wouldn’t have been possible without Dr. Coughlin’s care.

Beyond his expertise, he’s one of those rare doctors you hope all doctors are: compassionate, clear, and genuinely invested in his patients’ recovery.

Thanks to him, I got my mobility, and my performance, back.”

We integrate the latest advancements in orthopedics and sports medicine to deliver the best possible outcomes for our patients.

  • "I had been struggling with shoulder pain for years, and after trying numerous treatments with minimal success, I decided to try PRP. The entire process was seamless, and Dr. Coughlin took the time to explain every step in detail. Within a few weeks, I noticed a significant improvement and now i'm back on the golf course!"
