About
Dr. Chetan Bhan is a surgical researcher whose work sits at the intersection of advanced minimally invasive techniques and perioperative safety. His primary research areas include robotic colorectal surgery, particularly for complex inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and the development of safe surgical pathways during public health crises. Dr. Bhan’s most notable contribution is a systematic review on robotic colorectal resections for IBD, which critically assessed perioperative outcomes, adverse events, and cost-effectiveness—a foundational paper that has garnered 32 citations and helped shape clinical decision-making for this challenging patient population. Demonstrating his adaptability and commitment to patient safety, he also co-authored a landmark study evaluating 30-day mortality in 500 patients undergoing non-emergency surgery at a COVID-19 “cold site” within a regional network. This work provided crucial evidence that elective surgery could be performed safely during the pandemic, directly informing surgical protocols and offering reassurance to both clinicians and patients. Through these contributions, Dr. Bhan has established himself as a thoughtful voice in surgical innovation and systems-based safety, bridging the gap between cutting-edge technology and real-world clinical resilience.
