My husband was diagnosed right here by our primary care, and I was diagnosed at one of the critical care clinics, and then passed along to a local urologist who sent me to Mayo.

So don't give up on the availability of good medical care right here just yet - oh, and while I'm about it, let me tell you that the 3 hr drive from here to Mayo is a piece of cake compared to getting in and out of the Beth Israel in the middle of Boston.

So sorry to hear of your health issues but good to hear that you found answers not too far away.
