About

Dr. Hannah M. Hollandsworth is a leading surgical researcher focused on advancing robotic surgery, particularly in bariatrics and colorectal procedures. Her work critically evaluates the transition from laparoscopic to robotic techniques, addressing both training challenges and clinical outcomes. She has published landmark qualitative studies on surgical education, including "General surgery training in the era of robotic surgery" (62 citations) and "Making the Jump" (24 citations), which explore how residents and attendings navigate the shift from bedside assistant to console surgeon. Dr. Hollandsworth’s quantitative contributions are equally impactful. Her 2024 MBSAQIP analysis of over 40,000 cases demonstrated that robotic revisional gastric bypass reduces morbidity compared to laparoscopic approaches (25 citations), while another study revealed higher complication rates for robotic sleeve gastrectomy (10 citations). She has also pioneered technical descriptions for complex procedures, such as robotic left-stapled total intracorporeal anastomosis (16 citations) and multiquadrant surgery for subtotal colectomy (16 citations). By combining rigorous outcomes analysis with insights into surgical training, Dr. Hollandsworth is shaping the safe, effective integration of robotics into modern surgical practice.
