Akiva Marcus, MD is the newest addition to the Digestive Disease Center of the Palm Beaches.
Dr. Marcus graduated Summa cum Laude from Yeshiva University with a Bachelor of Arts in biology.

Dr. Marcus then went across the East river and attended Montefiore Medical Center/Albert Einstein College of Medicine for his fellowship in Gastroenterology.

Over the years, he has presented at numerous scientific meetings and recently published a chapter in the prestigious textbook Sleisenger and Fordtran's Gastrointestinal and Liver Disease and completed revising the section on Chronic Gastritis for the well-known website, MedScape.com.
