About
Dr. Almino Ramos is a pioneering bariatric surgeon whose work has significantly advanced the field of metabolic and obesity surgery, particularly in minimally invasive and robotic techniques. His major contributions center on the safety and efficacy of novel procedures, most notably the Single Anastomosis Duodenal Switch (SADI-S). His landmark 2016 study, cited 32 times, provided crucial preliminary data on the SADI-S procedure, demonstrating its effectiveness as an evolution of the traditional biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch, helping to establish a safer, simplified alternative for severe obesity. Dr. Ramos was also a trailblazer in robotic surgery, authoring the first Brazilian case series on totally robotic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in 2013, a work that has garnered 12 citations and helped validate the robotic approach as a major advancement in minimally invasive bariatric care. Through these contributions, Dr. Ramos has shaped modern surgical practice, offering patients safer, more effective options and inspiring a new generation of surgeons to embrace technological innovation in the fight against obesity.
