@helenlodahl I have been a Mayo patient (Rochester MN) for almost six years. My personal experience is with the neurology dept. Not with MS, but I am in agreement with @loribmt. That is exactly what I have experienced with the neurology dept. I actually look forward to my annual appointments with my entire Mayo (neurology, neurosurgery, orthopedics) team. I consider all those individuals part of my family. I am excited as only three more weeks and I will be seeing them!!!
