Our Fellows

Olivia Sagan, M.D.

Hometown: Arlington, MA & Strongsville, OH

Residency: University of Rochester

What do you like about living in Rochester? Rochester is a fantastic place to live. There are so many things to do in and around the city, including arts festivals, concerts, exceptional food, and beautiful parks. It is also very easy to get around with not much traffic and very affordable. It has the best of the east coast and the mid-west, all rolled up into one.

Why did you select URochester Medicine for your fellowship training?  After training at URochester Medicine for my residency, I wanted to stay for fellowship. There is a nice balance between luminal GI, pancreas, and liver (both medical and otherwise) specimens. The GI attendings are also very supportive and are actively involved in your training.

What is the best selling point of your fellowship training?  The best selling point is all the opportunities I am presented with for the year. The faculty are supportive of me submitting research for USCAP, and I will be able to sign out cases half-way through my training which will prepare me for independent practice. Also, I am able to change my schedule to get more exposure to certain services if I feel less confident about those areas. I am very much looking forward to this year of my graduate training.
