Giuseppe Cullaro, MD, is a gastroenterologist and transplant hepatologist who cares for patients with general hepatology and transplant hepatology needs.

His academic interests lie at the intersection of hepatology and nephrology. Specifically, he focuses on improving outcomes for patients with end-stage liver disease by identifying predictive markers of future kidney dysfunction—markers that may inform the mechanism of disease pathogenesis and allow for the implementation of preventative strategies.

Dr. Cullaro earned his undergraduate and medical degrees from Boston University. He completed a residency in Internal Medicine at New York Presbyterian—Columbia University, followed by a gastroenterology fellowship at UCSF and a transplant hepatology fellowship at New York Presbyterian—Cornell and Columbia University in 2020. In 2019, he obtained a Master of Advanced Studies in Clinical Research through the UCSF Graduate Division.
