About

Dr. Sejal Saraf is a pioneering endocrine surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive and scarless thyroid surgery. Her major contributions lie in comparing novel surgical approaches to eliminate anterior neck scarring, a key concern for patients undergoing thyroidectomy. Her most-cited work, a 2018 study comparing the robotic retroauricular approach with the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA), has garnered 39 citations, establishing her as a leading voice in this niche. By systematically evaluating outcomes between these two innovative techniques, Dr. Saraf provides critical evidence to guide surgical decision-making, balancing cosmetic benefits with clinical efficacy. Her research directly addresses patient-centered outcomes, pushing the boundaries of traditional thyroid surgery toward less visible, more acceptable incisions. Through her comparative analyses, she has helped define the safety and feasibility profiles of these emerging approaches, influencing how surgeons worldwide approach thyroidectomy. Dr. Saraf’s work not only advances surgical technique but also underscores the importance of patient preference in operative planning, making her a notable contributor to the evolution of endocrine surgery.
