    :( not professional. Gives wrong diagnosis and prescribes pills for a condition that never existed in a first place.

    Very professional service. Staff were friendly, available and the facilities were modern and comfortable. The whole place was clean, tidy and the food was amazing. Nothing like you'd expect from a rural hospital. Very classy establishment for such a small community.
