GURS fellowship at Mayo Clinic was an invaluable experience that left me ready to enter practice prepared to tackle any reconstructive pathology. Returning home to Maine, I was excited to be one of two fellowship trained reconstructive urologists in the state, where access to a reconstructive urologist was not commonplace for many patients. I owe my confidence and excitement for practice to the unparalleled volume, mentorship, autonomy, and complexity offered at the GURS fellowship at Mayo Clinic. I am eager to bring my skills back to my home state and give back to my community. The year provided me with the skills needed to be a competent and confident reconstructive urologist, and I made lifelong connections with the faculty as friends, mentors, and teachers which will guide my practice for years to come.

There are so many wonderful aspects of the GURS fellowship at Mayo. They include exposure to three GURS trained faculty with diverse backgrounds and scopes of practice. There is also a mentorship model, including preoperative evaluation and counseling, operative experiences, and postoperative follow-up. Mayo also offers exposure to a diverse complement of cases, from complex open and robotic upper and lower urinary tract reconstruction, multidisciplinary cases, open and endoscopic urethroplasties, gender affirming surgery and prosthetics. Lastly, Mayo has excellent resources for research.

I chose the genitourinary reconstruction fellowship at Mayo for the exceptional mentorship, volume, diversity, and complexity of cases. I love the supportive environment and mentorship that I have received at Mayo. I plan to grow a genitourinary cancer survivorship and men’s health practice, combining my training in both genitourinary reconstruction and men’s health and infertility.
