About
Dr. Marc A. de Moya is a pioneering force in acute care surgery (ACS), a field he helped define and advance over the past two decades. His work centers on the evolution of this critical subspecialty, which emerged to address a growing crisis in emergency general surgical access. As a key architect of the ACS fellowship model, de Moya has shaped the educational foundation that trains surgeons to manage the most time-sensitive and complex trauma and emergency cases. His most cited paper, "The educational foundation for acute care surgery: Evolution of the specialty," traces the origins of ACS from its conception in the early 2000s to its current status as a distinct discipline. With over 3 citations already, this work underscores his role in formalizing the curriculum and standards that define modern acute care surgery. Beyond this seminal review, de Moya’s broader contributions include advancing surgical techniques in trauma, critical care, and emergency general surgery, with his research collectively cited thousands of times. His leadership has been instrumental in ensuring that patients receive timely, expert surgical care, making him a respected educator and clinician whose legacy continues to shape the next generation of acute care surgeons.
