Each year, residents meet with program directors to discuss strategies and opportunities for achieving career goals after residency. Potential options include staff positions and fellowships within Mayo Clinic and among competitive programs nationwide.

Two residents are selected to serve a fourth year as chief medical residents.

The Internal Medicine Residency first obtained accreditation from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) in 1994. We have full, continued ACGME accreditation with commendation as of January 2018.

Our graduates go on to take the American Board of Internal Medicine examination with a 91% pass rate overall since 1998.

Molly Disbrow, M.D.

“Mayo Clinic has a superior infrastructure for research and as a resident, you are afforded many opportunities to collaborate with leading experts in their field, not only at your campus but enterprise-wide. Through the close mentorship in research, you expand your network for your continued future success and I am confident the research projects and faculty I connected with during my residency had a large part in my matching into a gastroenterology fellowship.”

Class of 2016
Destination: University of Oklahoma, Gastroenterology Fellowship

Jabraan Pasha, M.D., FACP, RDMS

“Being around so many great clinicians was incredibly beneficial. I learned so much on every rotation. Many of the attendings are leaders in their fields, nationally and internationally. Secondly, the acuity and diversity of pathology of the patients was invaluable. If you can take care of a Mayo patient, you can take care of anyone!”

Class of 2013
Destination: University of Oklahoma School of Medicine, Internal Medicine, Associate Program Director

Kara Asbury, M.D.

“After I completed my residency in internal medicine at Mayo Clinic, I worked as a hospitalist in the community for several years. The knowledge and educational tools I was provided from Mayo made my transition to community medicine as seamless as one could hope for.”

Class of 2009
Destination: Upon completion of Mayo Clinic's infectious diseases fellowship in 2018, Dr. Asbury moved on to run a private practice group in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Fellowships

More than 60% of Mayo graduates pursue fellowship training, most at their top-choice programs. Each year, program graduates are accepted to competitive fellowships in cardiology, hematology/oncology, gastroenterology, pulmonary medicine, and other fields at Mayo Clinic and many other prestigious institutions.

Residents with interest in fellowships have pursued opportunities at Mayo Clinic's campus in Arizona and other locations, armed with superlative foundational internal medicine training and impressive credentials afforded by abundant research opportunities and work with renowned experts in various fields.
