About
David Goldenberg is a pioneering head and neck surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing robotic surgery in otolaryngology. His major contributions lie in establishing best practices, training standards, and credentialing frameworks for robotic procedures, particularly in transoral surgery for oropharyngeal and laryngeal cancers. His landmark paper, "Robotics in otolaryngology and head and neck surgery: Recommendations for training and credentialing" (49 citations), provides critical guidelines for standardizing robotic surgery education, while "Best Practices for Robotic Surgery Programs" (40 citations) outlines efficient monitoring and evaluation methods for robotic teams. Goldenberg has also demonstrated the utility of novel systems like the Medrobotics Flex System for transoral supraglottic laryngectomy and total laryngectomy (27 citations), and explored transoral thyroidectomy (8 citations). His work on the surgical anatomy of the supraglottic larynx from a robotic perspective (25 citations) has deepened understanding of this complex region. With over 200 total citations, Goldenberg’s research has significantly shaped the safe, effective integration of robotics into head and neck surgery, improving patient outcomes and expanding minimally invasive treatment options.
