Dr. Robert Guarino

Growing up in New Jersey as the oldest of four brothers, Dr. Robert Guarino learned early that hard work and responsibility were part of everyday life. His parents worked blue-collar jobs and raised their children to value education, family, and keeping commitments. Guarino took those lessons seriously. He graduated seventh in his class at Arthur L. Johnson Regional High School and earned a lacrosse scholarship to Rutgers University. There, he balanced college athletics with a demanding academic schedule and graduated with honors in biological sciences. He continued his education at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey–New Jersey Medical School, where he earned his medical degree. During his pathology residency at Saint Barnabas Medical Center, he served as chief resident before completing advanced fellowships in surgical pathology and breast pathology at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City.
