- Can't get an appointment: Any tips on what to do?

It is hard to be denied an appointment, especially when you've invested your hopes that Mayo Clinic's team approach could be the answer. It sounds like you have taken the right steps to getting an appointment, but upon review by physician experts, it was determined that Mayo Clinic cannot offer any further treatment for you.

Did your doctor submit a referral on your behalf or did you make the request for an appointment by self-referral? Have you considered a center of excellence or university medical center near you?

Hello @colleenyoung, thanks for your reply. Two of my appointment requests were from doctor referrals and two of them were self referrals. And yes, I live in Iowa and have been to the University of Iowa a few times. Still no answers. I read some of the reply’s in the discussion that you sent me. All of my appointment requests were for the Rochester, MN location. Maybe trying to get into one of the smaller Iowa locations would be a good idea?
