Divergent Health Care - Calgary

Following a track & field injury in 1987, I suffered with chronic Achilles tendonosis for more than 30 years. In that time, I have tried a myriad of treatments, including ultrasound, massage, eccentric calf strengthening, active release, acupuncture, dry needling, and finally, a stem cell injection. I got some short-term relief here and there, but nothing worked in the long term. Finally, someone told me about shockwave therapy available at Divergent Health, and I decided to try it before going for a follow-up stem cell injection. I have had nine treatments of a 10-treatment protocol, and I can honestly say that my Achilles has never felt better since my original injury. Whether or not my healed tendon will stand up to the rigorous sprint training I want to do remains to be seen, but I am extremely optimistic. Not only am I happy with my results so far, I cannot shower enough praise on the care and attention the staff at Divergent give to their patients. These people are genuinely concerned about their patients, and go above and beyond to ensure they receive the best treatment and best outcomes possible. Both Dr. Jason Nanda and his associate, Paul, did everything they could to make my experience a positive one, and to make sure that I got the maximum benefits possible from my treatments. This amazing human touch and authentic accountability is something I have rarely seen in the Canadian health care system. Double thumbs up!!

Great clinic and experience! Ive had many injuries in my athletic career; and I must say, Divergent Health Care has consistently provided me with finest braces, splints and orthotics to help me deal with my aches and pains. As well, the chiropractic services offered by Dr.Nanda have been very thorough and helpful in treating my back pain. I highly recommend Divergent Health Care as an essential resource in pain management.

Brand new man!!!! Straighter, probably taller and definitely feel better every day since I started treatment. I have had chronic neck and lower back pain from working construction, for many years. I have had the spinal decompression done on both my neck and back and could not be happier, the pain is completely gone. The shockwave is a must try if you have any sort of muscle pain. The doctors and staff are amazing and very accommodating. I strongly recommend Divergent health to anyone.

The team at Divergent Health changed my life. Went from debilitating chronic pain to very noticeable improvement over the course of treatment. Everyone there was incredibly friendly and professional.

Dr Jason nanda is experienced in chiropractic therapy and Alex p has knowledge of skin care terments when I come back to Calgary I will for sure visit them 5 out 5 ⭐️

I wanted to leave 1 star because I left extremely annoyed after this appointment, but later decided on 3 because service was friendly, and I didn't actually try their treatment (and will decline to do so). My review is based on them wasting my time, misleading me when booking, and confronting me with non stop sales tactics. I told them I wanted to start shockwave therapy and avoid the self assessment because I've already seen a doctor and physiotherapist, and it's no question plantar fasciitis. I wanted to start slow and see how I reacted to it. The lady said no question, it's a 90% success rate, it will take 5 minutes, and we can start treatment right away. So I booked and canceled my afternoon plans. On arrival, the place felt more like a store selling beauty products, skin care treatments, vitamins, footwear, etc. I knew I was going to be sold something right away. The chiropractor was dressed very very casual, like he just came from the gym or club (he was very friendly though btw). After 5 minutes of history questions, and 5 minutes of him leaving to attend a personal matter, he then finally broke the news their treatment is ONLY program based....a 10 treatment process, with lots of painful techniques included, with a 95% success rate...all for the low price of $1500....oh, and I could add $200 at a discount favour for orthotics....and this all needed to be paid up front. Are you serious! No way was I prepared for that, and no way would I blindly agree to this. He then continued to describe tricks I could do to best use my insurance. I couldn't believe I wasted my entire afternoon, thinking I was coming in for a 5 minute treatment, only to be told I had only ONE option...a $1500 program!! I hated that this was not explained anywhere on the initial appointment description, or on their website, they just needed to get me in the door to make the sales pitch. Hey, it "may" work, but no way am I blindly just paying a whopping $1500, I wish this cost and program system was explained somewhere before I wasted my time.

I have been in dire need of a great chiropractor. I decided to start my search and came across Divergent Health Care. What drew me was not only the wonderful reviews, but also the vast services offered in one location. Let me start off by just saying how amazing the staff is here! They warmly greeted me and felt like I was in the comfort of my own home. Their team is very pleasant and made sure that my needs were addressed. They truly went above and beyond. Very personable. The office and clinic itself is very clean and organized. Dr. Nanda and his team certainly have compassion for people as it is reflected in the work he and the team does. He was respectful, patient and gentle as well as genuinely interested in my areas of concern. The system and technology that the team uses is also impressive. He developed a layered plan for my shoulder and knee pain that I have never seen. Multiple different team members assess and create something that is both manageable and effective. It's a program that was well defined and scheduled in up front. I'm now just sustaining and going in for routine maintenance. Really pleased with my results!

All I can say is yikes. On one hand the staff are very professional and kind. Dylan, Liam, Jennifer, David, etc. are such wonderful kind people and are good at what they do. On the other hand, Mr. Nanda. I have so many words. I paid a significant amount of money upfront for ten weeks of treatments with the promise that I would be better at the end of them. At my followup appointment at the end of my extensive treatment period, he didn’t even assess me to determine if there was any change from when I first came in. Secondly, when I spoke to him about trying a different form of treatment—which I had initially come to the clinic for—he straight out lied and told me that their clinic’s treatment is radically different from other clinics with the same treatment. Upon further research and looking into other clinics and further research, it is easy to prove that this treatment is in fact standard. Thirdly, he dismissed my concerns about my treatment plan not being adequate or effective at treating my pain and suggested that I try meditation. And he seemed content for me to come in for routine “maintenance” treatments. I found another clinic that does the treatment I originally went to Divergent for and it turns out I have physiological problems causing pain. I did not appreciate the language he used to imply that I was to blame for my treatment not being successful. That’s now how you treat a patient, especially when they’re paying hard-earned money and trusting you to help them.
