New member looking for advice on doctors and navigating illness
MAC & Bronchiectasis | Last Active: 8 hours ago | Replies (23)Comment receiving replies
I have bronchiectasis and live in the Philadelphia area. I don’t feel my present doctor is helping me know how to deal with this. It has progressed. I’ve recently had two different lung infections one on top of the other. I think i need to get a second opinion. Can you recommend a doctor at Penn?
Thank you

I go to Dr. Dorgan and am VERY happy with him! He is at Penn. He LISTENS and talks to you like an adult. When I went to him I already knew quite a bit about Airway Clearance so I can't speak to that part but he came recommended to me from a support group. He goes above and beyond. I had an Xray (from my GP) that had a disturbing and strange finding about my bones in a particular area. He had a colleague check it out and thankfully it turned out to be nothing. How many docs would do that?! Good luck! Deb
