Air travel to see a Mayo Clinic physician?

Hello bryanbay
If you are lucky enough to get accepted by Mayo in Rochester you will get answers.
My daughter was misdiagnosed locally at a medical center for tarsal tunnel syndrome. She could not walk. Mayo accepted her, made the proper diagnosis and did the proper surgery. They never give up. They all collaborate and they healed her.
I have unremitting neck pain and sadly was not accepted in ortho or pain management at Rochester or Jacksonville.
I hope you find helpful answers somewhere.
I am following Jennifer’s advice and starting myofascial release therapy this week. I have to travel beyond my own location but if it helps it will be worth it.

It's worth the trip to get a competent diagnosis and treatment recommendation. It certainly was in my case, where I finally got a CIDP diagnosis after years of seeing doctors at teaching hospitals who didn't figure it out. I found the concierge service at Mayo very helpful in terms of helping with accommodations. Be sure to talk to them before making arrangements. Avoid O'Hare -- which should be easy in your case. And be sure to study a map of the Rochester campus so you don't get lost. But don't be intimidated by the travel to an unknown place. Best of luck to you.
