Originally from Italy, she completed medical school at the Sapienza University School of Medicine in Rome in 2008. Salvitti chose to study urology because of the diversity of the field and the opportunity to establish relationships with patients with chronic conditions. She began a year-long internship at the Policlinico Umberto I’s Department of Urology, a decision that solidified her decision to pursue the specialty.
She remained at Sapienza University to complete her urology residency at Policlinico Umberto I in 2014. Later that year, she moved to Miami to embark on a clinical fellowship in pediatric urology at the University of Miami’s Jackson Health System and Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. When the fellowship ended in 2017, she remained in the Miami area and worked as a pediatric urologist in various medical centers until she moved to the Mobile area in 2022.
“I wanted to embrace the challenge of establishing my pediatric urology service in a new place,” Salvitti said. She decided to work at USA Health after hearing of the academic medicine faculty positions available within the health system.
Salvitti is accepting new patients at the Strada Patient Care Center. To schedule an appointment with her, call 251-660-5930.
