@bryanbay There will be neurologists at each Mayo location. The Rochester MN location is the largest with more specialists. I was seen in the spine center and the neurologist there was specialized in spine conditions and that consult was ordered by my spine surgeon. There is more information at this link for neurology:

When you are seen at Mayo, they will refer you to other specialists there as needed to diagnose and treat your issues and very efficiently. They usually get appointments done within a few days a or a week. If you're accepted for a different department, that may lead to a neurology consult. There are so many patients seeking help with pain from unknown causes directly in Neurology that it can be difficult to get an appointment if they are at capacity.
Our Connect Mentor @johnbishop is pretty knowledgeable about neuropathy issues and may have other suggestions. Do you have a diagnosis or direction for requesting an appointment?
