1 /5 david mitchell: Not the best of my reviews, and I took some time prior to choosing to write this.
One star after a very unfortunate incident at the register. The HICAPS process was a difficult one for the operator with some multiple transactions occurring at the one visit. It took a few phone calls to sort out the finances and I had to engage my health fund. All that happened where I found no fault with the physio service – indeed, the physio service put me on the path to recovery.
I was shocked with the need to deal with my health fund out of pride of a long-term membership that has seen my household through many ups and downs. Health fund had to be first where the physio practice was a long second.
Like a lot of men, I always delay attending to my health – and my mild pain was unimportant in the big scheme of things. All in all, it took me a lot to admit that I needed professional help and a week or two of dithering prior to making an appointment. Now, while all my procrastinating is my own drama, it did lead to a state where I would flight if anything went wrong.
After the unfortunate transaction I took to Dr Google. One exercise that Dr Google (actually Dr Youtube) offered on first study turned out to be the best of all the exercises that I had been instructed to use. I can’t think that Dr Youtube alone fixed me as I appreciate that the physio’s instructions were sound as a way of starting on return to health, but Dr Youtube clearly presented as a wealth of information.
The experience taught me to rely on Youtube first and then a visit to a physio second.
