Post kidney transplant

Posted by lori120ann @lori120ann, Feb 26, 2018

Has anyone had a kidney transplant at mayo? Was it a good experience. I've heard it is the best place to go. How long did it take for you to get in to see them.

@lori120ann my husband is currently on the liver transplant list with Mayo in Rochester. We have been treated with nothing but kindness and respect by everyone when we have been there for appointments. It only took 18 days from when I requested his appointment to when it was scheduled. I was really surprised that he got in that quickly and by the fact that I could just go online and ask for an appointment!

Best of luck,
JoDee

Thank you so much Jodee. I will be going to the Scottsdale clinic. I'm anxious to hear from them but they are still doing insurance approval. Your hubby got in really quick.

@lori120ann he really did get in quick! I was thinking I'd have to have his doctor that he had been seeing put in an urgent request for him. All of our appointments have been easy to get scheduled, thankfully!
I hope all goes well for you!

@lori120ann, How are you doing? I was wondering if you have a scheduled appointment yet?
Hugs and Hope,

PS - I am interested in hearing about Mayo AZ! I bet it is a beautiful campus!

I had one in March of 2015! Greatest place you could possibly go! Let me know if you have any questions.

@tmiller999, I am dropping in to say 'Hi' to your kidney, and to ask "How are you doing'?
