About Me

Bio: Jason Persoff, an erstwhile stand-up comedian, is a full-time practicing internist in Jacksonville, Florida. He is an Assistant Professor of Hospital Internal Medicine at Mayo Clinic. His full-time avocation, however, is as doting husband and lucky father of three children. Every spring he pursues his other passion, combing the Great Plains for two weeks late May and early June in search of severe weather. He loves to share his photography, publishing and selling his photos on his Web site (stormdoctor.com). He has appeared in several specials on the Discovery Channel and Learning Channel, and has been a technical advisor on several other television specials and books about storm chasing. He has a special interest in mobile computing, lightning injury/treatment, and improving patient-physician communication. He can be reached at Persoff.Jason@mayo.edu.
