This is a very stressful time for both of you. I’d encourage you to call Mayo, Monday morning to get the appointment request process started.
I see you’re preferring Rochester, so when you have an appointment we can help you with your considerations for lodging and anything you might need.

In Connect there’s an esopheal cancer discussion group which you may find helpful. Bear in mind, everyone’s case is their own and no two cases are the same. But it’s an opportunity to look at other people’s experiences though they may be different than your wife’s journey.

Will you let me know when you get the appointment?

Hi @dtaylor75, I'd like to add my welcome and see how you and your wife are doing. When you request an appointment at Mayo Clinic, you do not need to specify a particular specialist. At the Esophageal Clinic your care team works together to provide the best care for your wife. You can read more here:
- Esophageal Cancer Care at Mayo Clinic https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/esophageal-cancer/care-at-mayo-clinic/mac-20356094

Let me know if you have any questions as you navigate this new diagnosis. I'd also like to invite fellow esophageal cancer members to join this discussion like @maryhelen @sepdvm @patriciagsr @survivorsuz @puprluvr @lori57216

How are you and your wife doing, @dtaylor75?
