"Estive no Grupo HOSP da República no dia 26/02/2026 e relato minha experiência: Ótima experiência, excelentes profissionais, muito atenciosos, pró-ativos e dedicados. Fui atendido pelo médico Oftalmologista Dr. Fábio Brugnara, que é um excelente profissional, muito atencioso, sendo que expliquei a minha situação relativo ao uso das lentes e grau do meu óculos e o mesmo ouviu com paciência e mostrou as possibilidades, detalhando com clareza, objetividade e técnica qual poderia ser a melhor solução dentre as possibilidades. Parabéns ao Grupo HOSP pela qualidade e competência dos profissionais que cuidam excepcionalmente dos pacientes. Um GIGANTE Obrigado!"
