Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science Jacksonville Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a highly academic, tertiary-referral Diagnostic Radiology Residency embedded within Mayo Clinic's Jacksonville campus, a top-ranked hospital system with a 1:1 core faculty-to-resident ratio and state-of-the-art imaging infrastructure. The program requires a preliminary internal medicine year on the Florida campus before the four-year diagnostic radiology sequence begins, reflecting a structured, institution-controlled pathway rather than an open PGY-1 market. Graduate outcomes show a strong fellowship-driven trajectory, with the large majority of residents pursuing subspecialty fellowships (often internally at Mayo, but also at Stanford, MGH, Duke, UCLA, and other academic centers), and a distinctive Early Specialization in Interventional Radiology (ESIR) track available to one resident per class, prioritizing internal candidates. The program values residents who can commit to a linked preliminary-year-plus-residency structure and who are oriented toward subspecialty fellowship training or high-caliber academic/private practice careers.
