About
Dr. Seong-Joo Park is a leading anesthesiologist whose research focuses on optimizing perioperative pain management and anesthetic techniques for minimally invasive thyroid surgery. Her seminal work includes a prospective, randomized, controlled trial investigating ketamine infusion during bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) robotic or endoscopic thyroidectomy, a study that has garnered 15 citations. This landmark research addressed a critical clinical challenge: while BABA thyroidectomy offers superior cosmetic outcomes, it is associated with significant postoperative pain due to extensive tissue dissection. By demonstrating that ketamine effectively reduces pain in this context, Dr. Park provided a practical, evidence-based solution that enhances patient recovery and comfort. Her contributions have shaped modern anesthetic protocols for robotic and endoscopic procedures, bridging the gap between surgical innovation and patient-centered care. With a career dedicated to advancing perioperative medicine, Dr. Park’s work continues to influence clinical practice, improving outcomes for patients undergoing complex thyroid surgeries.
