Gaining Admission to Mayo Clinic (from out of state)

Thank you for the clarification.

So, if for example, a Mayo Clinic doctor puts a patient on a certain medication, how do they know whether it is the right medication since it will naturally take time to see how the medication works? Is the patient to stay there as an outpatient? Since that could be cost prohibitive (and in my case it would be), and the patient had to return to his home in another state, can the Mayo doctor follow-up with virtual/online visits?

If after your initial visits, you have follow-up questions, Mayo has a Portal that allows you to ask follow up questions. In addition, Mayo has option for virtual visits.

I live in Rochester, and use portal and virtual visits rather then having to go to clinic for follow up questions / visits.

Absolutely. The patient portal is a huge help. You can send messages to your doctors and they will respond to your questions and concerns.
