Help with Florida dialysis

[sarahuk]

  Hi I was wondering if anyone could help??

I'm hoping to holiday in the clearwater area of Florida in the summer, I'm from the UK, can anyone recommend a centre?

Sarah, if you google dialysis centers in Clearwater, FL it will give you a listin for the  city. Don't have experience with any of them myself, so can't recommend.

Also, if you go to www.propublica.org/dialysis and go to their 'tracker' you can find centers in Clearwater and obtain data on these facilities that might help you determine which one would be best for you --

And, there use to be a wonderful restaurant in Clearwater called the Kapok Tree -- about thirty years ago - (I used to travel there for work related business).

I was given this website by my social worker :

www.globaldialysis.com

I did a search on Clearwater, Florida and it came back with 10 results (maybe more, not sure though)

Then, you can go to www.propublica.org/dialysis to get more detailed information - the only thing is that this is not data within the last six months and facilities that have had problems might have improved, or vice versa
