Gracias por el mensaje. Confirmo la cita del martes a las 10:30 para la rehabilitación y la evaluación funcional.

Mi padre tuvo un ictus hace dos semanas. Ahora mismo camina poco; en la calle usa andador y para distancias largas usamos silla de ruedas. Necesita ayuda para trasladarlo del coche a la entrada.

¿Hay parking cerca de la clínica? ¿Podemos llegar 10 minutos antes para hacer el registro?

Hi, Laura:

Thank you for the message. I confirm the appointment on Tuesday at 10:30 for rehabilitation and the functional assessment.

My father had a stroke two weeks ago. Right now he walks only a little; outside he uses a walker and for longer distances we use a wheelchair. He needs help transferring him from the car to the entrance.

Is there parking near the clinic? Can we arrive 10 minutes early to do the registration?

Best regards,
Marta López
