Where in Connecticut are you? I live in Eastern Connecticut and go to UMASS which is 30 minutes from my home. Yale is excellent, but UMASS has excellent pulmonary and ID doctors who work as a team.
UMASS is also very easy to get to as it is right off the highway in Worcester near Assumption. I have been with them for several years now. I understand about not being a city gal. We lived in Storrs for years about a mile from UCONN and now are in Dayville. Good luck! (irene5)
