What makes care at Mayo Clinic different?
Teams of specialists. Genuine collaboration. Focused on your health and safety.
Our team approach means that you'll never have to search for answers alone. Your Mayo Clinic team will be hand-picked according to your unique needs. It will likely include specialists within and across departments to evaluate your condition from fresh perspectives.
Plus, your team has access to more than 4,700 Mayo Clinic physicians and scientists on three campuses. If there's a question, alternate ideas and emerging research are just a phone call — or hallway — away. At Mayo Clinic, our approach leads to more answers and more happy endings for patients than anywhere else in the world.
The right answers
Effective treatment depends on getting the right diagnosis as soon as possible.
Our specialists have a long history of recognizing and treating tough medical problems that go undiagnosed elsewhere. Uncommon conditions are simply common at Mayo.
We also understand that when it comes to your health, you're an expert, too. As a valuable part of your health care team, you're encouraged to share your story and ask questions.
Safe, efficient care — all in one place
You won't wait weeks or even days for answers. If you have a test in the morning, your doctor will have your numbers that afternoon. In fact, most initial visits to Mayo Clinic take less than a week.
That doesn't mean we rush your care. Specialist appointments at Mayo Clinic are actually longer than average. The professionals on your care team will take the time they need to sit down and really talk with you. Thorough, thoughtful and comprehensive evaluations and consultations are built right into your patient itinerary.
We'll make sure you get the personalized attention and individual care you need — so you can heal faster and get back to the activities and people you love most.
