About
Abdulaziz Arishi is a surgeon-researcher whose work centers on the comparative effectiveness and economic impact of robotic-assisted surgery, particularly in bariatric and colorectal procedures. His major contributions include analyzing large national databases—such as the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program and the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project—to demonstrate that robotic approaches can yield better outcomes than traditional laparoscopy in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sigmoid colectomy. Notably, his 2020 study on robotic gastric bypass reported superior results, while his 2022 work quantified the direct medical costs of robotic sleeve gastrectomy at a single academic center, offering crucial data for hospital decision-makers. Arishi has also explored public perception of robotic surgery through a cross-sectional study in Saudi Arabia, revealing gaps in knowledge and attitudes that inform patient education strategies. With over 35 citations across his most-cited papers, his research provides evidence-based insights into the clinical and financial trade-offs of adopting robotic platforms, making him a valuable voice in the ongoing debate over surgical innovation and resource allocation.
