I called the Mayo Clinic recently and was told I needed a referral to see a neurologist, is that the case?

I think a referral can help sometimes but I've never heard that it's a requirement or needed. I know sometimes the waits for a neurologist can sometimes be a problem due to the sheer number of patients trying to get an appointment in an area like neurology. If it were me, I would just try to self refer.

Just a thought - is it possible your insurance provider may require a referral? I'd check with the insurance company.
