Daniel Guifarro Rivera, MD
GI Fellow – PGY4
Personal Statement:
Interests include advanced endoscopy, AI in GI, obesity medicine, therapeutic endoscopy. Our program has been AMAZING throughout the entire process including the interviewing, the post-match months and now with the start of fellowship. Everyone is very supportive, easy going and it truly feels like a family. The senior fellows have been so helpful during this transition and made us feel part of the team since day 1. This is truly a place where you can thrive, and it continues to grow and expand in multiple areas. Exciting things happening in UT San Antonio!
