Pain , No Doctors here can figure out
My name is Sherry , I have been in pain for two months now.. Been to the ER twice , seen Two family docs one Digestive disease specialist.. Had Blood work done ( surprised I have any left). Ct scans it goes on and on.. I finally asked for a Mayo referral. They said sure we will send it out today.. Now what do I do? Do I need to wait for a number or a letter??

Hi @sherrybecker,
Your doctor can make a referral to Mayo Clinic through our website here https://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/provider-relations/refer-patient
Mayo Clinic will review your records and then contact you. If you do not hear from Mayo Clinic, you can call them to find out about the status of your request. See the contact numbers here: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63
We are welcoming new and existing patients for virtual visits and safe in-person care (https://www.mayoclinic.org/covid-19), including elective surgeries. Wait times depend on your medical need and the area of practice you need to see. You might be able to see a provider next week, or you might have to wait 12 weeks or more. Generally, timely appointments are available for urgent problems.
