The cool thing about Mayo is they work as a team on most issues. Your urologist will likely discuss your case with a variety of their colleagues and develop a plan specifically for you and your situation. My first visit was with a Radiation oncologist but he had already discussed my situation with a team. He was my contact as I was accepted in a clinical trial he was leading on Tulsa Pro ablation.
I Have had other family members treated at Mayo for other issues and they always impress.

I have switched all my care to Mayo Phoenix. I switched when they started taking Medicare. I would not want to go anywhere else. I would say over the last 6 years it has become more difficult to get an appointment. Although I think that applies to all the medical field. I have been trying to get a gastrologist appointment for the last year and no luck. They have a family practice that has been booked the last 6 years.

Some time ago on Frontline, there was a historical view of Dr. Mayo who founded his medical clinic, but morevover his two sons who went on the grow the Mayo into a world-class medical treatment facility.

Mayo doctors don't work as individuals but as a team as mentioned above. The consortium concept brings ideas, concepts, and experience together to solve the problem.
