Yes, in that my local doctor here did not error on the side of caution in many ways and nothing was being done for me compared to what they did for me at NJH. They ordered sputum tests (my local pulmonologist doctor had not done that nor did he order a CScan when it would have been best to do (error on the side of caution) after the previous test that showed large lungs (apparently inflamed lungs). The local pulmonologist was not concerned with the size of my lungs. It was my PCP doctor who finally ordered the CScan after the large lung xray and my having lost weight. NJH had me start nebulizing the 7% saline, ordered the oscillating vest for me to have via medicare plus they had me scheduled for all the other tests that were good to have and know about my health. I realized once all was completed at NJH it would have probably taken months and months locally to have all those tests that I agreed to have that they suggested and arranged for me to have at NJH in the short stay. I am glad I went.
