@lpsinduced, that's great news to hear your husband got an appointment. Upon reviewing his medical records, they chose the best departement to start with. The physician that he will be seeing is your starting point, your quarterback so to speak.

Mayo Clinic has a team model of care, which means that members of a multidisciplinary group of experts are called in as needed to help the patient Your husband's multidisciplinary team may include doctors from several medical and surgical specialties. Having all this expertise in a single place, focused on his needs, means that you're not just getting one opinion. His care is discussed among team members, test results are available quickly and appointments are scheduled in coordination. The most highly specialized experts in the world will be working with him and you.

@colleenyoung thank you! Just got off the phone with the new department we got referred and they stated we should receive a response of approval in 1-2 days from the GI department in to see if we are accepted or not. I'm feeling nervous and scared. If they do decide on passing us on what would you recommend to do? my husband has various symptoms that started from GI but have developed to Rheumatologist Neurologist and Cardiologist due to his stomach issues. What are the chances of getting accepted by GI ? and can we try again with a different department such as neurolgy if needed as he suffer from brainfog 24/7.
