Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Care Team at Mayo Clinic?

Posted by kellyut @kellyut, Mar 28, 2022

Does the Mayo Clinic in Arizona treat Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and it's comorbidities? I am awaiting genetic testing for it. I have three doctors who think I have the hypermobile version and the possibility of the vascular version because of my family history. I am looking for a care team and saw that Mayo has care teams for EDS, but it didn't say which of it's 3 locations offered it. Even though I live out of state, the Arizona campus would be very convenient because my sister lives right next to it, so I would have lodging and support while I was out there.
