Experiences of patients

I went for a dialysis vacation by the Orava dam in Námestovo. The medical facilities were first-rate, including the personnel, who were very friendly and pleasant. I was quite pleased with the manner I was received, the service, and the recreation in general, which I would gladly recommend to all dialysis patients.
