About
Dr. Stephanie Thompson is a pioneering surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques in foregut and hernia surgery. Her most impactful work centers on comparing surgical outcomes for complex hiatal hernia repairs, particularly for type II, III, and IV hernias. In her landmark 2023 study, Dr. Thompson conducted a retrospective analysis of adverse outcomes between robotic-assisted and laparoscopic approaches, addressing a critical gap in the literature where data on robotic use for large hiatal hernias remained limited and conflicting. This work has garnered early attention with 5 citations, signaling its growing influence in shaping surgical best practices. Dr. Thompson’s contributions are vital for surgeons navigating the expanding role of robotic-assisted surgery, providing evidence-based insights that directly impact patient safety and procedural decision-making. Her research not only clarifies the comparative effectiveness of these techniques but also sets the stage for future prospective trials, establishing her as a key voice in the evolution of modern foregut surgery.
