Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, offers a two-year, fully accredited Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism Fellowship which includes a broad curriculum encompassing all components of endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism.

Unique program highlights include:

• Broad training experience that is highly specialized and offers a professional, collegial atmosphere with one-on-one working relationships between fellows and faculty
• Ideal setting for professional development with a long-standing tradition of highly efficient and safe patient-centered care
• Focus on education, not "navigating" your patients through a system
• Experience with a large volume and variety of endocrine disorders ranging from common to exotic
• Opportunity to see any and all patients, as there are no "private attendings" at Mayo Clinic
• Enjoy world-class in-house clinical laboratory services with rapid results
• Experience in treating metabolic disorders in people undergoing solid-organ transplants

After completing this fellowship, you will be able to identify, evaluate, and manage the current problems and treatment issues in endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism.
