I have called several times Mayo to find a doctor. Intake coordinators are at a loss when I say Avascular necrosis/ Osteonecrosis. First one said no doctor has that listed. Second and third time I called they were going to research it and call me back Never got called back. Very frustrating getting past the front line.

That is frustrating. Perhaps this listing of the doctors and departments at Mayo Clinic that treat AVN would help:
- Avascular necrosis (osteonecrosis) > Doctors & Departments at Mayo Clinic https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/avascular-necrosis/doctors-departments/ddc-20369864

I have it in my 2nd metatarsal and told them where it was so I got into a orthopedic foot doctor at Mayo. Tell them the location in your body and start from there.
