Alix Hopp, M.D.

I firmly believe in Mayo Clinic's primary value that "The needs of the patient come first." My goal is to provide the best care possible as part of the Mayo team through interpretation of imaging studies.

Medicine is my second career and a calling for me because I want to make a meaningful difference in people's life in a direct way. I found my calling in radiology, in which I am able to combine clinical knowledge, image interpretation and trouble-shooting skills to make a direct impact in patient care delivery, including screening, diagnosis, treatment monitoring and surveillance.

In my free time, I love spending time with my family, enjoying nature and watching movies that inspire or make me laugh.
