We live just south of Tampa FL and my husband has been encouraging me to go to Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL. I’m beginning to agree that may be the best idea.
Received info that Mayo in Scottsdale, AZ does NOT specialize in NTM or bronchiectasis, that Rochester and Jacksonville have the best pulmonology clinics. Is this information incorrect? Been a twice yearly patient at NJH for 11 years...the travel to and from (with Covid) has become overwhelming. Looking for treatment closer to home in the southwest.

If you have a pulmonologist or pulmonology group you want to see, call and ask who is experienced. For an individual doctor, look up their profile, which will show their certifications and areas of interest or specialty. Otherwise, check with your nearest teaching hospital or medical school for a referral.
I f you happen to be near a Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN Jacksonville, FL or Phoenix, AZ) National Jewish Health (Denver, CO) or University of Texas, Tyler all have excellent Bronchiectasis/MAC treatment centers.
