"Everyone that works at Mayo is top-notch in their specialty, enabling you to learn from the best, across all disciplines. The residents are given autonomy throughout residency, which culminates in the Senior Resident Associate Chief Rotation. This independence prepares graduates for their attending practices, allowing them to feel comfortable making treatment recommendations and advocating for patient needs in multi-disciplinary tumor boards. In addition, the leadership of the residency program is supportive of your passions; whether it be clinical research, residency education, global health, or physician well-being, the program will help to connect you with resources to help you succeed. I am grateful for my residency training at Mayo Clinic."

"This outstanding program helps to develop exceptionally strong, patient-centered clinicians. Residents have the privilege of working alongside  thought leaders from all clinical specialties, ultimately culminating in a unique senior resident associate independent practice. This experience left me prepared and confident for life as an attending. I had such an incredible experience as a resident at Mayo Clinic!"

2019 Radiation Oncology Graduate

Current position: Senior Associate Consultant, Radiation Oncology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN

"Senior residents transition to the Senior Resident Associate position and begin an independent practice. This was a remarkable benefit that I couldn’t even fully appreciate at the time. It’s a reflection of the high quality of resident education and the trust that the faculty have in that training. It was an absolute differentiator when interviewing for attending positions and made the transition to consultant seamless. I will always be thankful for that trust and opportunity."

2019 Radiation Oncology Graduate

Current position: Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN

"The Radiation Oncology Residency at Mayo Clinic is outstanding. The training I received was world-class and comprehensive. During my residency, I had the opportunity to serve on the Cancer Center's Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) as an associate member, to write and PI prospective trials, and to learn from some of the brightest minds, not only in radiation oncology, but also in medical oncology, surgery, radiology, pathology, and more. I can't say enough good things about this program!"

2019 Radiation Oncology Graduate

Current position: Radiation Oncologist, Intermountain Healthcare, Ogden, UT

"The clinical training, research opportunities, and mentorship in the Radiation Oncology Residency are unparalleled in my opinion. I entered this program with an interest in pediatric radiation oncology. By the time I finished residency, I had the equivalent of a pediatric radiation oncology fellowship under my belt. I completed research projects in partnership with the Children's Oncology Group (COG) as a resident and this helped lay the foundation for me to take on leadership roles within the COG after graduation. Additionally, I had a strong clinical experience and I independently took care of pediatric patients during my Senior Resident Associate Rotation. I recommend this residency program without any reservations."

2018 Radiation Oncology Graduate

Current position: Assistant professor of Radiation Oncology, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona

"I never thought I would seriously consider residency at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, simply because of the location! Of course, the reputation of Mayo Clinic was well known to me, but I was hesitant about moving to the Midwest. However, I felt very differently after my residency interview. The attendings, residents, and staff were all welcoming and friendly. I found them to be refreshingly down-toearth. I would strongly encourage prospective residents to consider Mayo Clinic for training because of the wonderful patient-centric culture, collegiality, and commitment to helping you reach your own individual goals. You have access to a tremendous number of resources which remove the limits of what is achievable for your career."
