Key Points
This is an update of my post published on June 29, 2010:
Along with his father and brother, Dr. Mayo started and ran the famous Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.
All three doctors were surgeons, and they invented new operations, pushed forward medical science, and attracted many other specialists to their clinic.
The Mayo Clinic grew up out of a private practice, but it is now a nonprofit organization rated #1 for all hospitals in the United States. It is also ranked as a great company to work for – which is a good thing, because it employs more than 4,500 doctors and scientists plus a support staff of 58,400 administrative and allied health staff. It has grown to three different locations (the two newer locations are in Florida and Arizona).
A whole lot of research is carried on at the Mayo Clinic. Patients from all around the globe come to take advantage of cutting-edge technologies and techniques. The Clinic performs the highest number of transplants in the U.S.!
Amazing stuff!
