On the contrary, I have found that the Mayo Doctors talk and refer to others commonly... The way that Mayo Pays the Medical Staff makes a difference .... it reduces competition ... they have always spent time talking to me as well... We, the patients, have to have the correct questions... K

Hi ken82, glad to hear that's your experience. I have dx of A.C.N.E.S. confirmed by Univ Washington pain clinic. After reading Dr. Sweetser's article, I messaged him, respectfully requesting a referral for treatment (as he described in his report, "Surgical treatment with neurectomy is available for medically intractable abdominal wall pain"). I got a form letter of denial back from Mayo's Gastroenterology dept with no referral and no help. Baffling.
