He is also a dedicated teacher and mentor to UCSF-East Bay general surgery residents, and a respected thought leader. His body of professional work includes more than 80 peer-reviewed publications.

    Victorino completed his undergraduate degree at UC Berkeley in 1986 and earned his MD at the University of Pittsburgh. He returned to the Bay Area in 1991, completing a general surgery residency at UC Davis-East Bay in 1998, followed by a trauma-critical care fellowship at UC Davis. Soon thereafter, he joined the UCSF Department of Surgery as a faculty member.
