About
Dr. Tommy Ivanics is a surgical researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques in bariatric and transplant surgery. His key research areas include optimizing perioperative outcomes for patients with obesity and improving surgical approaches to living donor kidney transplantation. Dr. Ivanics made a major contribution with his 2020 study comparing robotic versus laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in super-obese patients, demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic techniques in this high-risk population—a finding that has garnered 23 citations. He further advanced the field with his 2022 work on robotic-assisted living donor kidney transplantation, using propensity score matching to show comparable outcomes to the traditional open approach, a study that has been cited 16 times for its rigorous methodology. This research has helped establish robotic surgery as a viable alternative in complex transplant procedures. Dr. Ivanics’ work is notable for its focus on evidence-based innovation, directly informing clinical practice and expanding surgical options for patients. His contributions are shaping the future of robotic surgery in both bariatrics and transplantation.
