Who has been to NJM Center?

[CowTown]

Anyone been to the National Jewish Medical Center in Denver, CO for mycobacteria treatment or for a consult?

Just curious what to expect. I've been asked to come for 10 days (minimum) for my first visit. At first they said 2 days should be fine since I've had so many key tests done already, but now they've upped it to their more typical 10 day appointment. So I'm not sure what to expect for a 10 day situation.

Anyone have some first hand experience with them?

Not for MAC specifically, no, but I was treated there for close to 2 years by their CF Team. Will those be the docs you are seeing? They are great, very ontop of it and smart. The nursing team is amazing. I don't know where you will be doing your admission, if it will be at NJH or a hospital nearby (where CFers are treated) but the hospital nearby is new and the nurses are great.

Good luck.
