Chief's Welcome

Cynthia Tan, MD & Daniela Diaz Rubayo, MD

Chief Residents 2026-2027

Welcome to the UMass Chan Medical School Urology Program in Worcester, Massachusetts. We are committed to delivering exceptional, patient-centered urologic care while advancing our field through innovation, research, and education. Our multidisciplinary team provides comprehensive, evidence-based care across the full spectrum of urologic conditions, combining clinical expertise with compassion and the latest advances in diagnosis and treatment. As the academic urology program serving Central Massachusetts and beyond, we are dedicated to improving the health of our communities through excellence in patient care, scientific discovery, and collaboration.

Education and mentorship are central to our mission. We take great pride in training the next generation of urologists in an environment that fosters clinical excellence, curiosity, professionalism, and lifelong learning. Whether you are a patient seeking expert care, a prospective trainee exploring our residency program, or a colleague interested in collaboration, we invite you to learn more about our department and the many ways we are shaping the future of urology from our home in Worcester.

We'd strongly encourage all budding urologists  to look closely at our program.  We truly believe that we would not have received the same individualized and well-rounded training had we not trained here at UMass.  We could not be prouder of the department that we have called my home over the last few years, and we cannot wait to see who gets to join our family next.  Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or would like to learn more!
