MAC - To treat or not

Does anyone have experience with the Mayo clinic in Phoenix? Considering a move to that area and curious about their level of expertise with NTM. Unfortunately proximity to good care has gotten to be a major consideration for some of us. Thanks

I live in greater Phoenix six months a year. I was diagnosed by my pulmonologist in NH ( but I live 200 miles away in Maine). I was refered to NJH by a friend in Denver (also a snow bird in Az). Before committing to the travel cross country from Maine to Az each year I contacted Mayo Clinic in Phoenix. They told me they do NOT treat bronchiectasis. They specialize in cancer treatment. They told me to go to Rochester NY or Fl if I wanted a Mayo Clinic . Did they start treating BE in Az? I am very pleased with NJH and will continue to go there but it sure would be nice to have someone nearby when in Az.
Again I can't say enough about NHJ. I would reccomend everyone with BE to go to a facility like that.
