That is correct information for applying to the same department by self-referral. It may be worth exploring a physician referral if your doctor thinks you should go to Mayo Clinic.

That is false. I tried self-referral for Internal Medicine and was denied because I didn't have a doctor referral. So, I had my doctor send a referral, but I was denied an appointment because my self-referral denial wasn't a year old yet.

Honestly, I don't understand how Mayo can deny people without giving any legitimate reason.

I've been trying to get an appointment since 2019.
