Overview José G. Gurrola II, MD, is a Rhinology and Skull Base Surgeon and Assistant Professor in the Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at the University of California, San Francisco. Dr. Gurrola received his medical degree at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio. He completed his internship and otolaryngology residency at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City, followed by a Rhinology and Skull Base Surgery fellowship at Augusta University (previously Medical College of Georgia) in Augusta, Georgia.
At UCSF, Dr. Gurrola’s clinical practice focuses on patients with a wide variety of rhinologic and anterior skull base disease processes. He works closely with other disciplines, including Neurosurgery, to provide comprehensive, multi-disciplinary care for these patients.
He was recently selected as a UCSF Watson Scholar and will use this award to explore his research interests, which include: investigating the etiologies of chronic sinusitis, exploring novel anatomic approaches to the skull base and examining surgical outcomes in rhinology and anterior skull base surgery.
He will be a participant in the UCSF Teaching Scholars program in 2018-2019. His educational interests involve the development and implementation of novel educational approaches in rhinology and endoscopic skull base surgery and exploring the potential implementation of next generation technology in anatomic education.
Dr. Gurrola serves as the Chair of the UCSF Otolaryngology Department’s Diversity committee. He has a long history of mentorship and effective advocacy for UIM medical students and residents throughout his career.
Dr. Gurrola is board certified and serves on the Taskforce for New Materials for the American Board of Otolaryngology.
