I don't understand why they wouldn't at least let us pay them to review the documentation of his treatment to-date and give some kind of indication about whether they thought it would be worthwhile to go to Rochester to be evaluated.

I understand what you are saying. However, I would imagine that they have to see him as a patient and not just review his treatment to-date. I would think that would be true of any physician. Here is a site on Dr. Dyck. He is the Professor of Neurology. He and his team specialize in all kinds of it.

Hope you find an answer. In the U.S. News and World Reports the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN ranks #1 for neurology and neurosurgery.

The Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota is one of the best.
