About
Dr. Shaifali Goel is a pioneering surgical oncologist whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for esophageal cancer treatment, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted surgery. Her major contributions include demonstrating the safety and feasibility of robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE), as evidenced by her landmark 2021 study reporting perioperative morbidity and short-term oncological outcomes from a single institution, which has garnered 6 citations. More recently, her 2025 propensity score-matched analysis comparing robotic versus open esophagectomy at a tertiary cancer center in India provides critical real-world evidence supporting the oncological equivalence and potential advantages of the robotic approach. With a cumulative citation impact reflecting her emerging influence, Dr. Goel’s work is instrumental in establishing robotic esophagectomy as a viable option in high-volume centers, particularly in resource-limited settings. Her research not only advances surgical precision but also addresses disparities in access to cutting-edge cancer care, making her a notable figure in the global effort to improve outcomes for esophageal cancer patients.
