Dr. Truty is wonderful. I met him with my sister last July. He is straight and to the point, and will not lead you in the wrong direction (in my opinion). He is not a warm and fuzzy guy upon first meeting --- but he does show compassion, and his skill as a surgeon is well known at Mayo. My cousin's husband is a surgeon (in another field) there so we had the good fortune of being able to stay with them while my sister was being evaluated.
Mayo is a tightly run ship, with all the physicians feeling as if they are one big interconnected family.
My sister is currently being treated at Memorial Sloan-Kettering in NY where she lives. Her treatment has been effective so far, but but I have found The Mayo in Rochester to be the epitome of excellence.
I wish you good luck in the future!
