Hi,
We are scheduled for a clinic at Jacksonville Shands with Dr. Pulley on August 18, which is covered by our insurance. We also got scheduled for a Dec. 17 clinic at Jacksonville Mayo after we saw Dr. Boylan last week. Our insurance doesn't cover Mayo but we are on one of the dates at Mayo that the MDA Assn. pays for.
In October I will have open enrollment for health insurance and can switch to BC/BS, which would cover Mayo, but I would have to change my primary care doctor who has been my doctor for 25 years and learn a whole new insurance system. I will not have been to the Mayo clinic when I have to decide about this.
Does anyone have experience with the 2 Jacksonville clinics for comparison and also with the USF clinic in Tampa? It is a 3 hour drive for us to Jacksonville and a 5 hour drive to Tampa, but we have close friends in Tampa.
Thanks for your advice.
