Waited for this doctor for over 45 mins.Staff not knowledgeable,not helpful. Stuff and doctors are puppets of harsh impersonal system designed to milk your insurance for all its worth. Unnecessary and painful procedures ordered for child, some-at the risk to the child's health and safety-to generate revenues, some-without insurance approval,left us with $9,950 uncovered.Poor communication with insurance on Mayo's part left us unable to see the only specialist important to our child's treatment. For same reasons,Mayo refuses to accept tests from other recognized medical institutions. Unnecessary general anesthesia for child during MRI left us with $6500 unpaid by insurance.No thyroid protection for 30-min X-Ray test. Mayo octors like to take their time with appointments and generate $450 to $750 bills for each, without contributing to the solution of the problem. An important symptom leading to the diagnosis had to be pointed out to the dr. by a resident of asian descent.
