Can't get an appointment: Any tips on what to do?
Visiting Mayo Clinic | Last Active: 16 hours ago | Replies (180)Comment receiving replies
<p>Hello,<br />I received a Mayo Clinic rejection email and was suggested to continue care locally. However, I am not receiving good care locally and was suggested by my treating doctors to go to Mayo Clinic, as they have nothing more for me at this time. However, I did not have a doctor send in the referral on my behalf. How often am I able to apply? What can I do to improve my chances of being accepted? I am currently 100% disabled at age of 33 due to neurological symptoms . I do not have a clear diagnosis or treatment plan.</p>

Hi @mmh2, that sounds frustrating. But you're asking the right questions. I agree with @mariajean03 that you may wish to ask your treating doctor to submit a referral on your behalf.

Did your doctor send all your records to Mayo? They need very specific information. I'm disabled also and got accepted but can't find a ride! Cleveland Clinic is also a great choice.
