Waiting for an appointment in oncology: What else can we do?

Hi @mnmimi, it sounds like your sister is taking all the right steps to seek an appointment at Mayo Clinic. I encourage her to continue to stay in touch with the schedulers as she is doing. It can take some time for the team of Mayo physician experts to review her records and for an appointment with the right clinical team to be scheduled. I know that time is of the essence and this is hard news to swallow heading into the weekend. Being a patient doesn't mean one can actually be patient, right?

Has she been able to make an account on the patient portal, Patient Online Services? I wonder if that might be possible at this stage and if it would help facilitate communication.

She has Patient ID number and login for the portal but because she has not been assigned a care team cannot leave a message in the portal
