About

Dr. Cyril Harfouche is a pioneering researcher in surgical tele-mentoring and robotic-assisted surgery, with a focus on expanding access to specialized surgical care through advanced technology. His most-cited work, "Surgical tele-mentoring using a robotic platform: initial experience in a military institution" (2023, 19 citations), demonstrates his leadership in integrating robotic platforms for remote surgical guidance, addressing critical gaps in care delivery for austere or military environments. Dr. Harfouche’s research investigates how tele-mentoring can enhance surgeon satisfaction, procedural competence, and operative efficiency, with the ultimate goal of improving patient outcomes in underserved settings. By combining robotics with telemedicine, he is shaping the future of surgical education and remote intervention. His work has significant implications for military medicine, rural healthcare, and global surgery, where access to expert surgeons is limited. Dr. Harfouche’s contributions are paving the way for scalable, technology-driven solutions that democratize surgical expertise and redefine the boundaries of operative care.
