I have a pituitary adenoma and I've been followed by Mayo Rochester for over a 
year now by their endocrinology department and have absolutely no complaints.  
They've been extremely thorough and attentive and have spent more time with me 
than any health care providers ever have in the past.  I'm currently receiving 
Sandostatin LAR to shrink my tumor and increase the odds of a complete 
resection.  

Incidentally, I'm also recovering from a lumbar laminectomy which I had done 
there a week a go.  I was a patient on their neurosurgery floor and simply 
could not have received better nursing care.  It's the same one I'll go to when 
I have my pituitary tumor removed so I feel better about that.  I am also an 
advanced practice nurse so I think I have some idea, realistically, what good 
medical, surgical and nursing care is.  As far as I'm concerned, I've received 
excellent care in all three areas there.  Dr. Atkinson was recommended to me as 
a surgeon who specializes in transphenoidal hypophysectomies.  Again, I really 
don't know how I could have received better care.
