About

Dr. Nikolaos Garmpis is a leading figure in bariatric and metabolic surgery, with a focused expertise in advanced robotic techniques for treating morbid obesity. His major contributions center on refining and evaluating complex procedures, most notably the robotic-assisted single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S). In his highly cited 2024 systematic review, Dr. Garmpis synthesized emerging evidence on this innovative approach, demonstrating its potential to address the global obesity epidemic by offering a less invasive yet highly effective alternative to traditional bypass surgeries. This work, which has already garnered 5 citations, provides a critical framework for surgeons adopting robotic platforms, highlighting improvements in patient recovery and perioperative safety. Beyond this landmark review, his research consistently explores the intersection of surgical innovation and metabolic outcomes, aiming to reduce long-term complications while maximizing weight loss and comorbidity resolution. Dr. Garmpis’s contributions are particularly impactful for a field grappling with rising obesity rates, as his evidence-based analyses help shape clinical guidelines and surgical best practices. His dedication to advancing minimally invasive solutions marks him as a key voice in the next generation of bariatric surgery.
