The Neurosurgical International Fellowship draws trainees from around the world. While all our trainees have a love of learning and a compassionate approach to patient care, they come from diverse backgrounds, family status, and professional and personal interests.
Meet the current fellow in the Neurosurgical International Fellowship at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.
Why did you choose to train at Mayo Clinic?
Since I was interested in engaging in neurosurgical activity in America, I chose this renowned program. So far, I like the environment and it's been a great experience to be exposed to the health care system of the USA. I would like to make the most of this two-year opportunity to further pursue my dream.

Why did you choose to train at Mayo Clinic?
Mayo Clinic offers excellent patient care and cutting-edge research opportunities, and I am lucky to have the chance to expand my training here. I believe that Mayo Clinic will be a once in a lifetime experience to work with world-class neurosurgeons and to learn from masters in the field. This will give me the fund of knowledge and the skill set essential for my neurosurgical academic career.
