    This is [redacted]. Dr. Cernadas has saved my life more than three, four times. My lungs are doing well and she always caught it, tell me what to do. She also helped my daughter too. She's the most wonderful lung doctor I've ever seen in MGH and in Brigham. Thank you so much. Please let her know. We are really, really grateful for her help. She's just wonderful. Thank you so much. Bye-bye.

    I was given a pulmonary test which wasn't accurate because I could not get accustomed to the new equipment. I found it hard to put my tongue under the equipment and blow really hard at the same time. I did fine with the old equipment. So, I waited all year to get my new test, and it told me nothing. A waste of my time and $40. co-pay. I am also waiting on a CT scan to be called into Winchester Imagining. I keep calling them and they do not have the prescription from Brigham's. I never had a problem with these things in the past.
