I have been to both Mayo AZ and Mayo Mn and there is no comparison. Mayo AZ is like your typical high quality large hospital while Mayo MN is a Medical City unto itself employing 35K+ people. Not knocking AZ since I'm going there and I am very pleased with my treatment but if I had a problem where my local MD's/hospitals are baffled, Mayo MN would be my very first choice. Yes, it's probably easier for you to get to AZ vs MN as it is for me. That's why I chose AZ for my continued care of one problem I have and again I am very satisfied with the care they offer. Please note that Mayo AZ DOES NOT ACCEPT ANY ADVANTAGE PLANS while Mayo MN does accept some. If she is on an Advantage Plan I would call Mayo MN first. Best of luck

I grew up in MN and now live in CA. Mayo Phoenix is larger than Mayo Rochester and performs more organ transplants than any facility in America.

Mayo MN does not take Kaiser insurance which is the largest insurer in California.

If it were me I would compare the doctors who specialize in the disease that afflicts your spouse and determine which are most experienced and their education and publication records.
