Date and Time:
I have been a patient at your institute for approximately 3 months. I have found the facility to be first class. Of particular interest is the ability of Toronto SEMI to provide both an initial medical assessment, followed by recommended physiotherapy, and as necessary, subsequent medical assessments. A fully equipped gymnasium with the appropriate physio equipment is available to support a cross-section of physiotherapies. The facility itself is centrally located (with access by subway, bus or car) with ample free parking. The physiotherapists are all licensed and certified, and take a personal interest in one's progress. This coupled with a friendly pair of receptionist's rounds out the overall ambience of Toronto SEMI.
