sometimes its a small world. isn't re commonality with dialysis. yes social workers are mandated by medicare to be in all clinics, i worked at fresenius for the first ten years of my career. Then that clinic was bought out by a small group which later sold it out to Davita, but i opted to leave to go to American Renal clinic which was previously owned by FMC. I worked in Rhode Island a small state but with alot of dialysis clinics, however, i preferred the medical practice associated with ARA, so i returned to my roots so to speak. From the way you describe yourself, it sounds as if you are from out of the country is that true, I am glad you are choosing Mayo, you will access to support services, through their team, altho its tough to be away from family especially for transport to appts etc. Interesting that a neurologist has an interest in neprology. well good luck with everything
