Hi,

I am looking at getting a skin punch biopsy. My neurologist is not sure if it are available here in New Mexico, and so I may have to go out of state. My insurance does not care how far I go, as long as the facility participates in the "multiplan" program (which many do).

I think that if I have to go out of state, I would rather go to the most helpful place rather than simply the closest. I would like to hear what people have to say about their experiences at various facilities--especially people with small fiber neuropathy. Since I would be going by myself, and I feel crappy many days, it would be especially useful to me to know how the experience was for you outside of the doctor visit/testing as well--for example ease of getting around the facility, getting to the airport/hotel, etc. Finally, how easy was it to get the facility to communicate with your doctor at home.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I appreciate your help!
