Alexa S. Jensen, M.D.
Hometown: Medford, MA

About me: I'm happiest when I'm by a body of water of any kind – beaches, lakes, and new more recent love, rivers (river tubing is a new passion I discovered here in the Midwest).

But my number one, most favorite thing in the world, is traveling with my husband and family!

Welcome to Mayo Clinic Pediatrics! We're the Pediatrics Chief Residents. We fell in love with the Mayo Clinic Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine Residency on our interview day because of the size of the program, easy living in Rochester, and the resources that Mayo has to offer to trainees. We love spending time with residents in our office, on hospital service, and during morning teaching. Our residents are the best part of our job, and it is so lovely to watch them grow as people and as clinicians. When we're not in the hospital, you can catch us at a local coffee shop or find us hiking in one of Rochester’s many parks. We're thrilled you are interested in our residency program, and we cannot wait to share more with you during your interview day.
