We were to do a televisit with the tests but due to the heat and humidity, the seals were no longer sticking rendering the kits invalid. We arrived from Rome in Florence two days before the cruise.

So helpful! I had…read moretwisted my ankle while traveling the day before and was in terrible pain. I couldn't take much more, so I limped over to this Farmacia for help. Mostly through non-verbal communication, I explained what I needed to the clerk, who had me sit on a short stool in a semi-private area. He came over with a compressive support brace for my ankle and let me try it on. It fit perfectly and really helped with the pain, so I wore it out of the pharmacy. I believe it was 14 euro. I can't comment on whether or not that's a good price for the product, but I can tell you that I wore that thing for the rest of my trip. Money well-spent, for sure. Thanks, Farmacia Brizio-Mazzei!

Davide was an outstanding massage therapist. I was in Firenze for a month for my arts/drawing…read moreprogram. I arrived jetlagged from the United States and with the workload and walking and learning new physical skills -- my body was getting a lot of tension. Davide helped me SO much. I must have emailed 5-6 people before arriving -- I knew I'd need a massage therapist while in Florence -- and Davide was very punctual, professional and clear. I love that he comes to you. After a day of walking, standing, drawing, painting and at the art gallery, last thing I wanted to do was walk to a massage studio. He came to me. As others have mentioned, Davide is very punctual, responsible, and kind. I must have gotten around 8 massages from him in my month here -- varying from 1.5 hours to 2 hours in length (I prefer longer massages). He was on time every time, he was consistent, very professional -- and, also, great massage! I was at a rented apartment so as a guy I was worried if it was going to be weird with another guy coming over to massage you. It shouldn't be but you know what I mean. I've had female massage therapists come give me professional massages before but never men. It was never awkward or anything like that. Davide was very professional, everything was perfect -- and great massages! I was having some muscle spasms in my upper back from tension, then had issues with my calves and hamstrings at other times, he was very accomodating and addressed those. I think I got three massages from Davide in my first week here. In the last week I needed only one. Davide was essential in helping my body to relax after a very intense day of learning new and very physical skill. He was the utmost professional -- reliable, polite, punctual and great massage therapists. He was an essential part of me learning new skills in Firenze, I thank him in helping me recover. He definitely is the most professional massage therapist in Florence plus a good man and genuine person! I will see him again when I return to Firenze in a few months and I recommend him highly.

The day of my massage, I got lost trying to get to them in the pouring rain. I arrived to my appointment 1 hour late and soaked to the bone from the rain. They were amazing! Not only did they welcome me with open arms, they took me in right away kept my appointment. Luna was my massage therapist and she was amazing. She did a fantastic job and even made some suggestions on some problem areas that were holding tension. If you are looking for a spa and need a massage, be sure to stop into this place, it's worth every effort to find them, they CARE about the people who find them. Luna is amazing but they are all kind and gentle with their guests.

When i arrived in italy, i was really panicked at the prices of a doctor visit, but then i found this place where prices are reasonable and more in line with what i am used to - around 45 euros for a specialist. Go to their amazing website where you can book in one instant with any specialist (any!) so you do not even need to call. You receive the info by email and hop, off you can go. You can even access the CV of doctors online if you are looking for a very specialized specialist. it really is a modern institution. Doctors i saw seem very good (how would i know for sure, you will tell me) and are more or less on time. You will have a number and you wait to see yours called on the board. Very efficient! Most of doctors i saw spoke English. The problem is that after you will need to go to a pharmacy and pay a fortune - i do not understand how medicines can be so expensive. Anyway, Misericordia at least helped you with the price of doctors.

It's my fault for not looking at the money, however everyone should be made aware of the practices of this specific Farmacia.
