I went to MN. I had a diagnosis for 3 years and wanted another opinion because I wasn't feeling as well as I hoped I could. My main medical center is excellent also I should say. I asked to see an internist first, instead of a neurologist because I didn't want to pigeon hole a diagnosis. I knew I needed to see one but wanted to keep other options open as well.
I called without a referral from my doctors. They gave me a phone interview and said they'd let me know if they'd accept me. They called the following day and said they'd take me as soon as I could get there.
I met with the internal md and went over my history. We made a plan to meet with 3 specialist including a neurologist. I returned in a couple weeks and stayed 2 or 3 days to complete tests and consultations.
The entire experience was excellent. My diagnosis did not change and they really could not offer any more insight than I started out with but I would do it again in a heart beat.
I needed to know I have done everything possible to get well.
Go!
