Anyone have experience with the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale?

I am new to the board. We are wintering in Arizona and I am having a flair up. I am looking recommendations for a Dr. or clinic in the Phoenix area.

Thanks for the link. I read all of the comments about drs. in Arizona. A little discouraging....I feel like I know who not to see now, but nothing really outstandingly positive.

I got my Diagnosis via Mayo Clinic Scottsdale.

The first thing you notice is that the place is a veritable palace.

In hindsight, I know they did a very good job. They are well equipped to handle your MS related issues. They have MS Specialists as well as supporting professionals to handle a wide range of needs.

I also got my diagnosis from the Mayo Clininc in Scottsdale.

Dr. Dean Wingerchuk is an amazing dr. AMAZING.

He took my misdiagnosis and got me properly diagnosed by the time i came back for my second visit with him. He treated me with dignity and respect and graciously treated my pain and fatigue issues without treating me like a pill seeking druggie. Plus the man is kind hearted.

My answer is totally not relevant to the question but every time I read the subject here is what comes to my sick mind.

"Anyone have experience with the "MAYO CLINIC" in Scottsdale?"

I would think one would rather go to the "MIRACLE WHIP" clinic, wouldn't you?

Sorry! It's been just hanging out there for two days waiting to be addressed and I gave in this morning.

My appointment is with Dr. Wingerchuck on March 7th. Thank you so much for your comments. You have put my mind at ease. I'll post how things go at the Mayo.

Everyone knows Mayo is better than miracle whip!

this peaks my intrest too

I am a zonie. I live about a hour and a half north of poenix in the mountains. I did some research via the internet looking for a ms specialist after reading so many post about making sure your personal neuro was a specialist. The only positive results was the MS Center @ the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale. So as of right now when the Dr.s say it is time too see a neuro or have a MRI done, I am going to request to be sent there. I was happy to see a dedicated facility to ms.

Dr. Wingerchuck was my guy as well.
