¡Una clínica excelente! Son todos unos profesionales maravillosos, muy competentes y el trato es exquisito, son muy agradables y cariñosos. Se implican personalmente con cada paciente. Muy buen ambiente y buena organización. También el personal de recepción son encantadores y cercanos; te facilitan y ayudan en todo.
Yo ya estuve hace 2 años con una lesión en el hombro y consiguieron recuperarme al 100% y en poco tiempo. Las dos veces llamé y me dieron la cita para las sesiones muy pronto.
La rehabilitadora jefa es una gran profesional con grandes conocimientos. De los fisios, Belén y Fran son magníficos.
Es una clínica altamente recomendable; yo vivo en El Palo, y aunque tengo bastantes clínicas más cerca tengo claro donde voy a seguir viniendo.
