I have never been a believer in such blanket statements. It is sort of like saying that Harvard is better than Yale. The department and the people are what matter. My own experience at Mayo in Jacksonville in the orthopedic department could not have been better and I don't believe it is possible to have had a better outcome anywhere, and that was after two well respected sports medicine practices could not diagnose, let alone, repair the problem. I sort of look at Mayo as the "place you go when nobody else has a clue".

It would be more useful to state which departments at which facilities are the best since it is doubtful that one facility has all the best departments. Having been in the "biz", you are in a position to state "if you have this problem, the best people are here". Thanks.
