Had a quick stop at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, since they are one of the few (if not the only) medical centers that dedicate research to polycythemia. Can't tell you how impressed Marlene and I are with this place. Clean, courteous, careful, patient oriented, quick, coordinated, organized, team oriented, very comfortable/pleasant to visit. No one wants to go to a hospital, but, if you've got to go, this is one great place. Our MD specialist was in no hurry with us, spent 45 min-1 hour with us, reviewed lifetime history, recent history with my Hilton Head GP and oncologist, examined me, of course, and brought us up to date on the latest research on the disease. All the lab work was, like everything else, professional, comfortable, clean and quick. Since our current medical system is going through so much change we felt fortunate to be able to experience what excellent medical care could be. Can't say enough about it.
