My dr. wants me to go to the mayo clinic, and I see that there is one in Jacksonville, FL. Since I live in Atlanta, I would prefer to go there, but was wondering if anyone had any insight into it (is it as good as the original?). I have confirmed celiac dx, hashimotos, raynauds, insulin resistance, and PCOS, but dr. thinks I have something else endocrynology wise going on since all my symptoms are still present after almost 2 years gluten-free (and my celiac blood tests are now normal, so I know I'm gluten free).

Anyone? I don't need a celiac specialist - probably an endocrynologist. I just really don't want to go to MN!

I don't have a recommendation, but wanted to let you know that the waiting list for Mayo in MN is very long. I've been on it for about 3 months already and they told me today it would be another 6.

Thanks for the info. I talked to my dr. and when I mentioned the mayo in FL, he said "no way". He said he can get me into the MN one, but I'm not ready to bite that bullet yet (I have a new baby and a 3 year old, and live in the south, so it will be a difficult task to go up there!). I'm still thinking about it....
