My name is Alvarho Guzman, and I’m so grateful to have received the Doc2Doc Match Day Scholarship. I’m an incoming PGY-1 at the San Francisco Orthopaedic Residency Program at UCSF Health St. Mary’s, and I’m really excited to complete my training back home in the community that raised me. I’m originally from Oakland, California, and have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for most of my life. I majored in economics at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and briefly worked in finance before switching careers and ultimately matriculating into Albany Medical College. Thank you again to Doc2Doc for this invaluable opportunity to further my financial literacy as I embark on my residency training in orthopaedic surgery.
