[NP-Clinical] infectious disease in bay area or anywhere at the top of the field

[Deal, Mary]

Totally agree with Dena here, check out UCSF.  I did my NP/MSN program
there and was amazed at the answers they can find. Plus, being a
teaching center, providers have fewer patients and more time for cases.
I think anytime you have things that "don't make sense" medically, the
closest medical school is the way to go. I have taken my mother to OHSU
a couple of times which is the closest medical school to me.

Chris, Dena, anyone else,
 
My mom is in Marin General with a cellulitis of her leg.  She has PVD
too, of course.  She's been in for over a week now on 5 different
antibiotic combos and it flared up again last night. She's had CT
showing no clots.  She's having MRI tomorrow.  She/I'm looking to find
out who in the area is The Best ID person for her/them to contact for a
consult.  This could include anyone anywhere I suppose given the
telephone (ah, the new technology).  
 
Thanks for any help.
