Hi Helen,
Thank you for the information that you shared, it is very helpful! I will look in to getting a physician referral. I hope that you are doing much better. I am wondering if you can answer this question for me too, if you don’t mind. I have a Mayo Clinic patient ID number, does that mean I have in fact been accepted as a patient?

@jordyndill Since you have a Mayo Clinic patient ID number you can create your Patient Online Account. Go to the Mayo Clinic web page and in the upper right hand corner you will see "Log in Patient Account". Check your Appointments and see if any have been set up for you. In my experience Mayo Clinic personnel contacts me by phone before setting up an appointment with a new medical provider.

I don't know if this means that you've been accepted to Mayo Clinic as a patient. I'm going to ask our Connect Director @colleenyoung if she can answer that question for you.

Here's the link to get you started setting up the patient portal for your account:

Once you have the patient portal setup, I would recommend installing the Mayo Clinic app on your smart phone which will allow you access to your appointment and other information.

@jordyndill, to get definitive answers to your questions about your patient and appointment status, you're best to contact Mayo Clinic International Services directly at:
Information Services Office in Canada
To speak with the patient advocate in Canada, please call:
807-701-5744
Or the International Appointment Office
888-441-2133

Since you have a Mayo patient ID, I agree with @johnbishop that you also have the additional option of getting efficient communication through the patient portal called Patient Online Services.
