Hi there, My husband was diagnosed with neuropathy about 2 years ago. He is on Medicare and has a supplement insurance also. We have called the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix and Minneapolis. We were told that their programs were full and they were not accepting anymore Medicare patients. Do you know of anyway that he can get into the Mayo Clinic to find out what to do or expect. Unfortunately where we are living his doctors have just said this is what you have, the information we do have come from groups like this one. thank you for your help.

I have a feeling that the key to Mayo Clinic is to become a patient before you are on Medicare. We are patients at Mayo Jax and became patients before Medicare. But we cannot get in to one of their primary care clinics now that we are on Medicare since we never went before.

Good Morning!
I've tried to get an appointment at Mayo, in Jacksonville, Florida, multiple times. I've been told the same thing. This last time, I even had a script from my neurosurgeon, but no luck!
Good luck to you!
