Hi @doesitcomeinglitter (love the username). You can be assured that you will receive care from a multidisciplinary team. It is the Mayo Clinic way.

@fuzzlepuff had a similar experience of being accepted into Cardiology and not General internal medicine. This is what I wrote to here in this related discussion:
- What to expect and chances of getting in? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/what-to-expect-and-chances-of-getting-in/?pg=2

Given that you're primary concern is heart-related, you've landed where you need to be based on the review of your medical records by Mayo Clinic experts.

Once you have your initial appointment, testing and assessment, additional appointments in other departments (including internal medicine and/or additional specialists as required and based on expert evaluation) will be arranged. Your cardiologist will be your main provider and will quarterback any additional needs.

Here are a few discussions that may help as you prepare for your appointment:

Thank you… the names was supposed to be “doesthatcomeinglitter” but too many letters 😂
