Best of luck! I go to Mayo in AZ. My primary had me started somewhere else and I switched after diagnosis. This helped me a lot mentally knowing I’m getting the best treatment.
I don’t understand how the surgeon would refuse to do double mastectomy. I was suggested single and had no resistance when I opted for double right away.

My son lives in Az not far from Mayo Clinic. I had thought about going there. I know that my blood counts and neutrophil were always low. My doctor said that my body needed all my healing to go to the one side. If I had both, many times problems arise with the side that was fine and takes away from healing the other side. I have inflammatory breast cancer triple negative so as everything and as much skin as possible had to be removed. I don’t understand it all but they really did not expect that it would be in the right breast, at least not at this stage. They say it’s very rare. 🤷‍♀️
