Good morning. The Clinic is like an automobile dealership. We service all makes, models, and years. I volunteer in the subway system. Best people watching ever. I see brand new babies to people getting up in years. People are dressed in tuxes to pajamas to next to nothing. Flats to the very high stilettos. The volunteers in the Eisenberg building make small stuffed animals for us to give to people. more adults take the animals then the children do. I see many patients on chemo pushing iv poles loaded with sometimes 4 bags wearing only a gown. Children in wagons to wheelchairs. Adults on scooters or walking the best they can. Some hair styles are out of this world, but that does not change how the staff looks at you. I know from being a patient for many years, the staff does NOT care what you wear. Comfortable clothing works great for the many tests you may get. Easy on and off shoes work for height and weight measuring. Mayo Clinic is the best place to be when you need help. I think it is ok to bring a stuffed animal and to wear comfortable clothing. Most of the people in the Clinic are doing the same. Have a wonderful visit at the best hospital system in the world.
