First appointment at mayo- what to expect?
Hello! I am travelling to Mayo in Jacksonville on December 1st of this year for an appointment with Neurology. My account states that I have one appt at 7:15 for evaluation. I am trying to finalize travel and hotel accommodations as well as leave from work- is it likely that my appt will be just that morning or is there a chance I might need to be prepared to stay for multiple days? I have received no information about my appt other than the time and doctor.

Welcome to Mayo Connect. I would plan for few days, there could be additional testing before and / or after you provider appointment. Every appointment's schedule is different.
Have you set up your Patient Portal? it is best way to keep up with appointments. In addition, there may be questionnaires that you may need to complete. If fill out ahead of time, saves time at appointment.
