An improbable rise to fame: How two Mayo Clinic surgeons became musical stars
In 2015, two hopeful orthopedic surgeons arrived in Rochester for the first time. In the past two years, they have become famous for something completely different. After a meteoric rise to stardom, however, it’s come time for them to move on — but not before giving one final shout out to the city. This week on the podcast, the story of Drs. Elvis Francois and William Robinson, otherwise known as the singing surgeons. We were at their farewell concert at Forager Brewery this week, where both men opened up about some of the wildest and most interesting moments of their rise to fame. Hear from the doctors themselves on what they learned during their time in the Med City as well as what the future holds — in medicine and in music — in this latest edition of the Rochester Rundown.
As a reminder, new episodes of the Rochester Rundown can also be found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher and other leading podcast services.
