Très bonne expérience dans ce cabinet de physiothérapie. Les rendez-vous sont toujours à l’heure et les soins que j’ai reçus ont été efficaces. Le cabinet est propre et agréable, avec une salle d’attente confortable et une fontaine à eau à disposition. Le personnel est accueillant et professionnel. Même lorsqu’on téléphone, ils répondent toujours rapidement, ce qui est très appréciable.<br>Seul petit point à améliorer : il arrive parfois que les secrétaires parlent assez fort à l’accueil entre elles, ce qui peut être un peu gênant dans la salle d’attente.<br><br>Je recommande ce cabinet pour la qualité des soins et le professionnalisme.
