I saw another surgeon at Mayo but the problem was he said I would be in a hotel after the surgery in the area. I can't imagine being alone in a hotel after spinal fusion. That freaked me out. I live in Brooklyn, NY so I would need a rehab place in Rochester.
I might check Fogelson.

@annie1 I found the hotels in Rochester to be comfortable and quiet. I had my husband with me. Do you have a friend or relative that you can bring along?

@annie1 Hey Annie, if you remember Jack, on this site, who had back surgery earlier this year at the Phoenix, Mayo Clinic and was able to move over to a location where he was cared for. I believe it was some type of skilled nursing facility where he was able to heal up enough to go home. That might be an option for you.
Wishing you the best, Sherry
