About
Anthony N. Kalloo is a pioneering gastroenterologist and endoscopist whose work has fundamentally reshaped the landscape of minimally invasive gastrointestinal surgery. His key research areas include advanced therapeutic endoscopy, natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES), and the development of peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). Dr. Kalloo is widely recognized as a co-inventor of POEM, a groundbreaking procedure that has become a standard, less invasive alternative to traditional surgery for achalasia. His landmark study on POEM versus robotic Heller myotomy demonstrated that POEM achieves equivalent clinical response while incurring significantly lower charges, a finding that has driven its widespread adoption and improved patient access to care. With over 37 citations for this pivotal work alone, his contributions have been cited thousands of times globally, underscoring his profound impact on clinical practice. Dr. Kalloo has also been instrumental in advancing NOTES, earning numerous accolades including the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy's Distinguished Service Award. His visionary leadership and relentless innovation continue to inspire a new generation of endoscopists and surgeons.
