点评:I have made 5 trips this year to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN from Western South Dakota. 2 times with my mother & 3 times with my husband. The Gonda building is part of the Mayo Clinic buildings that are all connected. My family received superior care from every doctor they saw. My husband had to have open heart surgery, double bypass. He's only 53! They make the most of your time and work very hard to accommodate all of your appointments into 1 trip. We travel over 600 miles one way to get there, so that's important for us. My husband just had his 6-month appointments which included a stress test, angiogram, blood tests, EKG, and appts with the heart dr and his medical examiner to do his FAA flight physical. All done in a matter of 3 days.
Rochester has a lot of shopping & restaurants. Most of the city is walkable, The Mayo Clinic is in the center of a lot of restaurants and close to many hotels. There is public transportation to all of the Mayo buildings & hospital. We will definitely return to The Mayo Clinic for any future major medical needs.
I also want to add, the Mayo Clinic seems daunting & overwhelming, but they make it very easy to get around and very easy to find your appointments. Give yourself some extra time until you get the hang of it. There are underground "subway" walkways & skyways to many of the hotels, restaurants and shops, so you don't have to go outside in the weather.
翻译:今年我从南达科他州西部去了明尼苏达州罗切斯特的梅奥诊所 5 次。两次是和我妈妈一起去的,三次是和我丈夫一起去的。Gonda 大楼是梅奥诊所大楼的一部分,这些大楼都是相连的。我的家人从他们看过的每位医生那里都得到了优质的护理。我的丈夫必须接受心脏直视手术,双搭桥手术。他才 53 岁!他们会充分利用你的时间,并努力将你所有的预约安排在一次行程中。我们单程要行驶 600 多英里才能到达那里,所以这对我们来说很重要。我丈夫刚刚做了 6 个月的预约,包括压力测试、血管造影、血液测试、心电图,以及与心脏病医生和他的体检医生的预约,以对他进行 FAA 飞行体检。所有这些都在 3 天内完成。
罗切斯特有很多商店和餐馆。这个城市的大部分地方都可以步行,梅奥诊所位于许多餐馆的中心,靠近许多酒店。公共交通可到达梅奥诊所的所有建筑和医院。我们以后如果有重大医疗需求,一定会回到梅奥诊所。
我还想补充一点,梅奥诊所看起来令人生畏且不知所措,但他们让出行变得非常方便,也让预约变得非常容易。给自己一些额外的时间,直到你掌握窍门。许多酒店、餐厅和商店都有地下“地铁”走道和天桥,所以你不必在天气不好的时候出门。
