About

Dr. Navpreet Kaur is a pioneering surgical researcher whose work bridges the gap between advanced hepatobiliary surgery and patient outcomes. Her primary research areas include robotic surgery, surgical outcomes in liver disease, and the application of large-scale database analysis to refine operative techniques. Dr. Kaur’s most notable contribution is her landmark study, "A Potential Role for Robotic Cholecystectomy in Patients with Advanced Liver Disease: Analysis of the NSQIP Database" (2020), which has garnered 40 citations and reshaped clinical perspectives on robotic cholecystectomy. In this work, she critically evaluated the trade-offs of robotic versus laparoscopic approaches, demonstrating that while robotic procedures often involve longer operative times and higher costs, they may offer unique benefits for high-risk patients with compromised liver function. By leveraging the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database, Dr. Kaur provided evidence-based insights that help surgeons identify which patients might truly benefit from robotic intervention. Her research has direct implications for personalized surgical decision-making, challenging the one-size-fits-all approach to cholecystectomy. Dr. Kaur’s work stands as a vital resource for clinicians navigating the complexities of minimally invasive surgery in vulnerable populations.
