Getting a 2nd opinion at Mayo Clinic

Greetings, I am in need of a second opinion. I am the son of an aging adult who needs a second opinion following a most recent hospitalization. The attending physician and hospital administration are unwilling to refer or sign paperwork for this patient/family request. Is there another way to get any On-Call Physician or Hospital to accept a patient needing an immediate follow-up opinion?

Hi @mindmapper, you can self-refer to Mayo Clinic on behalf of your parent. Get started here: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

Is your parent currently in hospital?
