History

Mayo Clinic developed gradually from the medical practice of a pioneer doctor Dr William Worrall Mayo who settled in Rochester Minn in 1863 His dedication to medicine became a family tradition when his sons Drs William James Mayo and Charles Horace Mayo joined his practice in 1883 and 1888 respectively

From the beginning innovation was their standard and they shared a pioneering zeal for medicine As the demand for their services increased they asked other doctors and basic science researchers to join them in the worlds first private integrated group practice

Although the Mayo doctors were initially viewed as unconventional for practicing medicine through this teamwork approach the benefits of a private group practice were undeniable

As the success of their method of practice became evident so did its acceptance Patients discovered the advantages to a quotpooled resourcequot of knowledge and skills among doctors In fact the group practice concept that the Mayo family originated has influenced the structure and function of medical practice throughout the world

Along with its recognition as a model for integrated group practice quotthe Mayos Clinicquot developed a reputation for excellence in individual patient care Doctors and students came from around the world to learn new techniques from the Mayo doctors and patients came from around the world for diagnosis and treatment What attracted them was not only technologically advanced medicine but also the caring attitude of the doctors

Through the years Mayo Clinic has nurtured and developed its founders style of working together as a team Shared responsibility and consensus still provide the framework for decision making at Mayo

That teamwork in medicine is carried out today by more than 55000 doctors nurses scientists students and allied health staff at Mayo Clinic locations in the Midwest Arizona and Florida
