About

Dr. Stefan D. Holubar is a leading colorectal surgeon whose research has fundamentally shaped the surgical management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and pelvic floor disorders. His work bridges the gap between evidence-based clinical guidelines and cutting-edge surgical innovation. As a principal author of the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons' clinical practice guidelines for both rectal prolapse (176 citations) and ulcerative colitis (85 citations), Dr. Holubar has established the standard of care for thousands of surgeons worldwide. He is a pioneer in minimally invasive surgery for IBD, authoring seminal papers on laparoscopic and single-port approaches that have transformed patient outcomes by reducing recovery times and complications. Most recently, Dr. Holubar has pushed the boundaries of endoluminal surgery, publishing the first case series on endorobotic submucosal dissection of rectal lesions using the Da Vinci SP single-port robot. His commitment to surgical education is evident in his work on training paradigms for minimally invasive IBD surgery. With a career spanning high-impact guidelines, robotic innovation, and cost-effectiveness research, Dr. Holubar continues to drive the field toward safer, less invasive, and more accessible colorectal care.
