Mark A. Gromski, MD
Assistant Professor of Medicine
Bio
Dr. Gromski completed his undergraduate degree at Indiana University - Bloomington and medical degree (M.D.) at Harvard Medical School. His internship and residency in Internal Medicine was completed at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center - a Harvard teaching hospital. He completed his fellowship in Gastroenterology and training in Advanced Endoscopy at Indiana University School of Medicine.
Dr. Gromski joined the faculty at Indiana University School of Medicine and Indiana University Health in 2017, where he is currently Assistant Professor of Medicine. He has clinical interests in advanced endoscopy and pancreatobiliary disease. Additionally, he has advanced training in the medical management of obesity and endoscopic weight loss procedures. His research includes pancreatobiliary clinical research, innovative approaches to training endoscopic procedures (including virtual reality and ex-vivo simulation) and weight loss endoscopy.
