About
Dr. Wah Yang is a leading figure in metabolic and bariatric surgery, with a particular focus on the integration of artificial intelligence and robotic techniques. His work has been instrumental in shaping the future of these fields, as evidenced by his role in an international expert consensus on AI in metabolic and bariatric surgery, which has already garnered 14 citations. Dr. Yang’s contributions extend to rigorous comparative effectiveness research, including a meta-analysis comparing Single Anastomosis Duodenoileostomy with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S) to Sleeve Gastrectomy alone, and a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of robotic bariatric surgery. He has also advanced the understanding of hernia repair, leading an international survey of 442 surgeons on mesh placement preferences and studying outcomes of robotic inguinal hernia repair in elderly patients. Through his leadership within the Robotic Global Surgical Society (TROGSS), Dr. Yang is driving evidence-based innovation, making him a pivotal voice in the evolution of minimally invasive and AI-augmented surgical care.
