Professional Statement
Dr. Martin Zielinski received his undergraduate and medical degree at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. After his formal education was complete, he transitioned to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN as a resident in Surgery. He stayed at Mayo Clinic for additional training in Surgical Critical Care. He was then hired as a staff surgeon in the Division of Trauma, Critical Care and General Surgery. While there, he developed research interests in small bowel obstruction management and novel blood products for hemorrage resuscitation. He quickly advanced and was named the first Professor of Surgery within his Division. After 18 years at Mayo Clinic, he is excited to transition his career to leadership as the Chief of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery at Baylor Medical Center.Websites
