Chief Medical Officer
Professor, Department of Medicine
Dr. Buscaglia received his undergraduate medical education in 2001 from the University at Buffalo, part of the State University of New York (SUNY) system. He completed medical internship and residency at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, New York. He then completed gastroenterology fellowship and the advanced endoscopy fellowship program at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. Jonathan joined the Department of Medicine faculty at Stony Brook University in 2008, where he is now Professor of Medicine with tenure.
While at Stony Brook Medicine, Dr. Buscaglia has served as both Director of Endoscopy and Director of Interventional Endoscopy. In 2012 he initiated Stony Brook University Hospital's first interventional endoscopy fellowship training program and inpatient consult service. He served as the Chief of the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology from 2016-2022. In 2022 he became the Chief Medical Officer for Stony Brook Medicine.
Jonathan is past President of the New York Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (NYSGE), and has been recognized in New York Magazine and by Castle Connolly as one of the region's Top Doctors. He is a nationally recognized expert in the field of interventional endoscopy, and has served as the senior associate editor for the American Gastroenterological Association's (AGA) official clinical journal, Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology. Furthermore, he has been heavily involved in several national committees within the AGA and the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE).
Within the field of gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy, Dr. Buscaglia specializes in pancreatic-biliary diseases and the management of GI tract neoplasia, such as Barrett's esophagus and advanced adenomas of the colon. He has conducted pioneering research in natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES), therapeutic endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), and pancreatic cancer for which he has received external grant funding. At the present time, due to his role as Chief Medical Officer for Stony Brook Medicine, Dr. Buscaglia does not see outpatients in the ambulatory office. He continues to perform endoscopic procedures within the direct access endoscopy program, and also for inpatients within Stony Brook University Hospital.
