Discovering and deciding on new CF doctors
In Lara Govendo’s most recent column, she talks about what it is that she looks for when searching for a new doctor.
For those who have changed doctors, what attribute is most important for you when deciding who should care for you? If you, like myself, haven’t changed doctors, what would you look for in a new doctor? -

While I have not experienced myself, I would say it’s best to know all of the doctors and care teams available, accessible, and local to you, and to try to connect with other patients or read reviews of these doctors, centers, and teams, so you can understand if: a) you are receiving the best quality care you can access and b) if there are centers with more resources available. Every patient with CF deserves a fighting chance, with the best quality care, and all of the resources they can access made available to them.
