Maybe you should add an "Other" option - some of us haven't dealt with either one.  I had a local non-profit.

I haven't dealt with either. My doctors own and run the facility.

I've dialyzed at two different Fresenius centers. I loved them both. The only reason I switched was because I didn't like the Dr at the one.

I like my center.  It's a non-profit run by 7th Day Adventists, Loma Linda.   :yahoo;
