I’d like to meet others with ulcerative colitis

My sister has ulcerative colitis and hasn't had any success in finding a gastroenterologist to relieve her pain and symptoms. She's not getting enough nourishment due to her u.c. ,which is causing other issues. She reached out to Mayo Clinic in Rochester and was told she has to wait 4 months, to get an appointment, from the time they receive her medical records. Can someone reach out and provide some direction on how she can expedite an appointment with a specialist at Mayo Clinic? She needs help now.

Call the GI desk every morning and ask if there have been any cancellations. Sometimes it can be the same day. The other option is come in through the ER. Best of luck.
