About
Michael Bonidie is a surgical researcher specializing in minimally invasive and robotic gynecologic surgery, with a particular focus on operational efficiency, cost optimization, and patient outcomes. His body of work has made meaningful contributions to the evolving landscape of robotic-assisted pelvic floor surgery, most notably sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse. Bonidie's most influential research, garnering 38 citations, demonstrated that implementing a dedicated robotic surgical team significantly reduces operative time — a finding with direct implications for reducing the high costs associated with robotic procedures. He has consistently examined the economics of surgical care, exploring how surgeon training background, individual volume, and platform choice affect hysterectomy and sacrocolpopexy costs across multiple studies. His 2021 work on tele-proctoring (30 citations) addresses the modern challenge of surgical education and remote mentorship, reflecting his forward-thinking approach to training the next generation of minimally invasive surgeons. Notably, Bonidie has also investigated the underappreciated issue of intraoperative team handoffs and their effect on patient safety, adding a systems-level perspective to his portfolio. Across more than 150 total citations, his research consistently bridges clinical practice, surgical training, and healthcare economics — offering practical insights for institutions seeking to optimize robotic surgical programs.
