What drew you to Mayo Clinic for fellowship training?
Learning from a group of fantastic MIGS-trained surgeons with a MIGS-focused practice. This allows me to hone my abilities not only in surgical procedures but also in delineating multidisciplinary care for complex benign gynecologic conditions that I will be managing for the rest of my career.
What makes this program unique?
The high surgical volume makes this program unique. As a referral center, we manage complex endometriosis, fibroids, adenomyosis, and the whole breadth of complex gynecology. I have also had the opportunity to train with a double-trained MIGS and REI surgeon which is a fantastic plus. Additionally, I have learned to surgically manage Mullerian anomalies and approach my surgical plans with fertility in mind.
What was living in Rochester, Minnesota, like for you?
I enjoyed the pace of Rochester. It is a very safe, calm, and family-friendly city. Lots of young professionals live here and I loved my commute each morning (it was less than 5 minutes)!
