This questionnaire study involving 3105 patients has demonstrated the importance of physiotherapy as a highly efficient method of rehabilitation medicine. The positive therapeutic outcome has been reported by 92.1% of the participants with 90.4% of them being totally satisfied with the quality of treatment and care provided to them. It is concluded that the temporal dosimetric parameters of the treatment courses applied in physiotherapy are clinically well-substantiated and satisfy the majority of the patients. The results of the sociological questionnaire studies with the special emphasis placed on the quality of the provided medical assistance are considered to be the most important component of its comprehensive assessment.
