"Best rehab facility in at least Catalunya"

"I visited there 7 years ago for rehabilitation. Turned out I didn't need rehab. They pointed a good eye doctor who carried out three operations and now I'm almost back to normal."

"Very bad impression, they're not even able to book an appointment after weeks of back and forth. Can't really trust them, if that's the attention they put to their patients better to go somewhere else"

"They don't speak English. I phoned and it was a disaster, the lady kept saying to send emails. .. Painful process of dealing with them over email as well, they don't know how to answer general questions about their own services always having to refer back to the medical team before they can reply. This is not convenient for emergency cases when time is not in our hands. Not recommended of you are international and non Spanish speaking"
