I am happy for you that you are recovering from the surgery. Thank you for sharing. I am just new to here as my husband was diagnosis with soft tissue sarcoma on his gluteus muscle. I am not sure how to get help from mayo. He already completed his radiotherapy and waiting for the surgery. Since I am worrying about the surgery looking for any type of information.

Mayo does not require a referral from another Dr. - you just need to call them and request an appointment - My Dr. Was Dr. Goulding - She is one of the top surgeons for sarcoma surgery and see the post below - she saved my leg and also my ability to walk again
I won't sugarcoat the process but will tell you that the whole Cancer Board at Mayo worked to ensure my best outcome. I am walking unassisted at 7 weeks and a huge portion of my calf muscle was removed.
How do I get an appointment at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix?
o reach the Arizona scheduling office, please call 480-301-8484 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Mountain time, Monday through Friday, or contact us online.

My direct phone is 480-466-6668 is you have any questions I would be happy to help - I know this is a very scary time my name is Julie
