I'm a medical professional myself for an unaffiliated organization, and I chose this place be an inpatient for my rare disease. The nursing staff and other supporting disciplines for inpatients are incredible—responsive, compassionate and encouraging—and most importantly, they take the time to treat each patient like an individual human. My specialty team is among, if not THE, most knowledgeable in the world about my condition. The amenities are excellent; I've been particularly enjoying the library, but there's also art, entertainment, a relaxation room, therapy animals, acupuncture and a host of other recreational activities to aid patients and/or families mentally and spiritually as they address their medical needs. Last but hardly least, it's highly rewarding knowing that while receiving such cutting edge care for myself, I'm also participating in research to optimize treatment for other patients in the future. I hope you and your family never need a place like this, but if you do, this is the place to be.
