,

I did a lung transplant evaluation at -Jewish about 18 months ago. It is one of the very best. The staff there are wonderful.

We stayed at the Parkway Hotel that was connected to the hospital and diagnosis center. It was very nice. Just parked our car and wheelchaired it over every day. Our insurance paid for everything, even snacks.

Let me know which doctor that you see. I hope all goes well for you there.
