About
Dr. Joslin N. Cheverie is a leading surgical oncologist specializing in minimally invasive thoracic and foregut surgery, with a particular focus on esophageal cancer and complex hernia repairs. Her landmark work on robotic-assisted transhiatal esophagectomy (RATE) for esophageal cancer following neoadjuvant chemoradiation, published in 2014 and cited 33 times, demonstrated that this advanced robotic technique could be performed safely with excellent outcomes even in patients who had undergone aggressive preoperative therapy. This contribution helped establish robotic esophagectomy as a viable, less invasive alternative to traditional open approaches. Dr. Cheverie has also made significant contributions to geriatric surgery, notably through her 2021 study on minimally invasive paraesophageal hernia repair in elderly patients. Her work challenges age-based surgical biases, showing that laparoscopic repair can be performed safely in older populations when patient selection is optimized. With a career dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what is possible through robotic and laparoscopic techniques, Dr. Cheverie continues to shape modern surgical practice, improving recovery and outcomes for some of the most complex surgical patients.
