Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science (Rochester) Program
About This Program
Our program encompasses many hands-on experiences and allows the fellows to progress from signing out with supervision at the start of their fellowship to be able to perform independent sign out towards its completion. Our fellows participate in handling of the cases, from the start, providing preliminary assessment for adequacy and participating in ROSE procedures, up to the completion of the case, with integration of ancillary studies and consulting with subspecialty experts if needed.
