Title: Davita Centers in Los Angeles
Post by: doglvr02 on February 01, 2007, 05:52:54 PM

I'm traveling to LA in April. I'm used to Fresenius machines and will be dialyzing at a Davita site with Gambro. Would love it if people would inform me of their experience with this center and brand of dialyzers, etc.  :thx;

i haven't dialyzed in Los Angeles yet, but i do dialysis in a Davita center with gambro machines and i can say that their very different from fresinius....when i  dialyze in a fresinius my sugars go down and i don't feel as exhausted as i do in the gambro machines, also in the gambro machines my BP goes real low as opposed to the fresinius ones so fresinius wins hands down against gambro (at least when it comes to me) well that's my  :twocents;   anyone else?
