The Mayo clinic is extremely corrupt to the point where they claim they are #1 in patient confidentiality, yet can care less to do anything about it. The clinic only cares to serve its own interests and that of their employees, rather than their PATIENTS!!!!!
My sister's rights were violated by a physician there in Mayo of Scottsdale, AZ, who willfully and intentionally disclosed medical information pertaining to her as a way of blackmailing her. My sister had even recorded the conversation of her sensitive medical information being divulged and shared with my parents as a way of protecting herself when she sensed it was coming since the physician had threatened he would do it several times. I had later sent the copy of the phone conversation to the Mayo Privacy Officer-Debbie Jaskowski, who refused to answer or respond to any of my questions and stated she didn't have an answer for my sister and stuck to the doctor's word over the patients, then dismisses the Doctor's negligence and fabricates a story to us claiming the information provided by Dr. Mohamed Akl, was "OLD NEWS", when indeed my parents had learned about my sister's medical information thru the doctor for the first time ever. This was not old news, but rather their way of COVERING UP for the physician at fault. Dr. Mohamed Akl and the Mayo Clinic are a disgrace and are not there to serve the public needs or interests, but rather the interests of their OWN.
This is the most corrupt clinic who apparently doesn't give a DAMN about any of their patients rights or well being. They are only there to make $ and cover up for their employees with their legal dept. I would not suggest anyone to use the services of Mayo Clinic after our experience. If anything, I would suggest Cleveland Clinic or any other hospital. Mayo is NOT # 1 in Patient Cofidentiality, but #1 in CORRUPTION and covering up for their doctor's sins. They also have this very same physician working for them who placed his name on publications he never even contributed to or wrote.
