Chris, thank you for the information. Do you need to be an in state resident in order to do a Mayo virtual visit? I just had REMS done and I have a 5 yr risk of major fracture of >100%! I am in shock and afraid to move literally. I am 78 and live in Florida and have only been able to secure a visit thus far with an NP in an endocrinology office that does not specialize in osteoporosis. I am thinking also of booking a virtual with Dr McCormick. I am grateful for any and all suggestions and information. Thank you!

@zooie ,
I am so sorry you have had this surprise diagnosis! If the Mayo virtual doesn’t work out, and you are near Orlando, Orlando Health has a women’s health pavilion in Winter Park with a doctor who specializes in bone health….Blessings to you and prayers for your good health.

Good evening @zooie. I don't think you have to be an in-state resident. Sometimes, medical professionals for out-of-state residents can arrange virtual visits with Mayo Connect staff.

Good luck with your decision.

Chris
