DOTHAN: In a HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT on Friday, the Southeast Health Board of Directors and CEO Rick Sutton announced a medical partnership with MAYO Clinic. There is not a “ownership” or “buyout” partnership, but one where the medical staff of Southeast Health and the medical staff of Mayo Clinic Network will now consult on patients. The tests needed for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
This unique medical partnership is one of 45 in the entire world.
Through the electronic world we live in today, CT Scans, MRI’s and other tests can be shared between Southeast Health and the some 8,000 with MAYO Clinic Network. The partnership will now give patients access to world class specialists. Where in the past patients had to travel for this level of care, this will allow patients to remain locally with their local healthcare provider.
Both Southeast Health and Mayo Clinic Network staff made their number one mission crystal clear, THE PATIENT.
