Description
The Mayo International Health Program provides Mayo Clinic residents, fellows, and eligible learners with the opportunity to participate in elective clinical rotations in underserved international communities. The program is designed to foster the development of future leaders in academic and clinical medicine by offering hands-on care experiences, promoting cultural awareness, and broadening clinical skills in resource-limited settings. Rotations are well-planned and mentored, aiming to create a lasting impact on both participants and the communities served. Scholars are expected to engage in direct clinical work, not just observation, and are encouraged to maximize the duration of their rotation as permitted by their training program.
