Full research facilities are available, including basic science bench space and a surgical innovation laboratory. The fellow is expected to participate in research studies including clinical trials and animal studies.
They will have limited call responsibilities only during the first year of fellowship. Fellows will act as junior faculty and have direct patient care responsibilities. Fellows will also spend time in clinic, becoming proficient in the workup and management of a variety of urologic disorders and will work with Nephrology and Dietary in the Multidisciplinary Stone Clinic. Fellows will rotate with several surgeons through the Mayo mentorship model and gain competence in a variety of surgical procedures. Cutting edge treatments include HIFU, HoLEP, ultrasound-guided PCNL, tubeless PCNL, supine PCNL, mini-PCNL, laparoscopic donor nephrectomies, and single port robotics.
The goal of the Fellowship is to give the fellows comprehensive training in minimally invasive urologic surgery. Fellows will work closely with various staff members to gain research and clinical skills in stone disease, ureteral stricture disease, BPH, and urologic malignancy. The Endourology Fellowship at Mayo Clinic in Arizona is a two-year combined Endourology/Stone-Lap Robotic Fellowship.
