I'm tagging a few members who I believe are patients at Mayo Clinic in one of its 3 locations (AZ, FL, MN) who can tell you more from a first-hand experience like

@colleenyoung I'm sorry I have not stayed at or been treated at Mayo Clinc. I go to National Jewish Health for treatment outside of my local docs. I tried to get into Mayo back in 2015, but they were not taking Medicare insurance if I recall. @lindam272
Thanks so much for the information. I understood that to be the case, but was disappointed by the denial from GI. I'll wait and work through Dr. Escalante.

I am a patient at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. Initially I was being treated by both Pulmonology and Infectious Diseases. When my pulmonologist was not satisfied with my progress, they had me tested (both sweat test and DNA) for cystic fibrosis. They then confirmed cystic fibrosis, and ever since then I have been treated by the entire CF team -- including a doctor, nurse, respiratory care tech, social worker, and dietician. In addition they have had me screened periodically for my bone density, and seen periodically by a GI doctor and an endocrinologist. My cystic fibrosis doctor (pulmonologist) tends to manage my overall care and refer me to any other specialists as needed. Very happy with my overall care and very grateful to the Mayo Clinic.
