✨ Meet Our Fellows — Get to know the talented physicians who recently joined the Mayo Clinic Gastroenterology & Hepatology Fellowship Program, one fellow at a time.
Introducing Dr. Wissam Ghusn!
Before pursuing medicine, Dr. Ghusn seriously considered a future on the basketball court after playing competitively throughout high school. 🏀
He chose Mayo Clinic because of the profound impact his research years here had on his growth as a physician-scientist, inspiring him through exceptional mentorship, collaboration, and innovation.
Welcome to Mayo Clinic GI Fellowship, Dr. Ghusn!

Proud to be part of this Mayo Clinic study published in Annals of Surgery.
🔺Direct comparison of metabolic surgery vs GLP-1 therapies
🔺Both improve cardiovascular health, but surgery showed greater long-term risk reduction
newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/d…
A Mayo Clinic study found that both metabolic and bariatric surgery and GLP-1 medications improve cardiovascular health in people with obesity, but surgery was associated with significantly greater reductions in long-term cardiovascular risk. The findings were published in Annals of Surgery.
The study is a direct comparison of two leading obesity treatments, evaluating how each approach affects overall risk of cardiovascular disease.

Excited to serve as a Guest Editor for @JCM_MDPI on “State of the Art in Obesity Care: From Pathophysiology to Precision Treatment.”
We are now inviting submissions spanning mechanistic insights, endoscopic/surgical therapies, and precision approaches in obesity care

Individualized Metabolic Surgery (IMS) score can predict % weight loss achieved with semaglutide

🚨 Excited to share our @medpagetoday feature on the weight-centric approach for T2D:
⚖️ Older T2D meds → weight gain (insulin, SUs, TZDs)
💉 GLP-1s & SGLT2is → weight loss and better outcomes
🔑 10%+ can lead to remission
