As an example, (very slight example) they provide you with a locator which is about the size of a watch and allows them to identify where you are in the facility in case the Dr. can take you earlier, etc. This is not talking about the latest equipment but just a small thing that helps when going to a Clinic. They were extremely complete in their tests and to the person the staff were polite and thoughtful. We have had experiences with a number of other clinics, hospitals and this one stands out. We were not impressed with MD Anderson in Texas even thou it is usually rated as #1. It would appear that if you had a very difficult problem they may do fine but for the average
problem they are very poor. Have been to Lahey Clinic in Boston, Mayo in Jacksonville (also very good), Sloan Kettering, Westchester Med Center,
Feel that Moffitt can stand up to the best of them and would certaintly use it in the future if needed. Just thought I would pass on some thoughts.

Thank you so very mich for this positive post. For those in other parts of the country who may be concerned about getting quality care, this is a very reaffirming statement of what medical care should be.

Best Wishes for good health.
