About

Sarah Stringfield is a leading figure in the advancement of robotic surgery, with her research centered on the clinical implementation, programmatic evaluation, and technical expansion of minimally invasive robotic platforms. Her major contribution lies in providing a comprehensive, long-term view of robotic surgery programs, moving beyond single-procedure outcomes to assess institutional return on investment and system-wide efficacy. Her landmark study, "Experience with 10 years of a robotic surgery program at an Academic Medical Center" (2021, 30 citations), is a pivotal resource for hospitals building or refining their own robotic programs. She has also pioneered technical descriptions for complex procedures, notably detailing the use of the da Vinci Xi system for multiquadrant surgeries like subtotal colectomy and total proctocolectomy (2020, 16 citations). By documenting a decade of data from a high-volume academic center, Stringfield has established benchmarks for safety, efficiency, and training, directly influencing how surgical departments worldwide adopt and scale robotic technology. Her work is essential reading for surgeons and administrators seeking evidence-based strategies for integrating robotics into comprehensive surgical care.
