I am sorry you have had a difficult journey. It sounds like you are in great hands so hopefully they are able to help you win the battle soon.
I love that Mayo takes this team approach. When I initially scheduled my husband for transfer of care and pet scan review, they just assigned him with an available doctor. I didn’t think much of it at the time as I was just happy to get him transferred quickly. Then after thinking about it for a couple of days I started questioning going with just whoever was available. That was what prompted my initial post. I know all Mayo doctors are top notch. It’s so overwhelming to try to sort through bio’s and determine a doctor to move forward with based on a couple of paragraphs. He is now scheduled with Dr Boorjian, whose resume is quite impressive. Hopefully it’s the right choice, but I feel confident in seeing so many peoples posts here and on other threads that ultimately the goal of Mayo is to get him into the right hands, no matter who that will be.
Thank you for your insight and best of luck to you in your continued fight. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
