We are proud to celebrate Dr. Sandeep J. Khandhar of Virginia Cancer Specialists, who has been named Surgeon Educator of the Year 2025 by the Inova General Surgery Residency program, one of only two surgeons to receive this prestigious honor.
In a groundbreaking achievement, Dr. Khandhar performed the first-ever single-port robotic lung resection in the Mid-Atlantic using Intuitive Surgical’s newest robotic platform. This state-of-the-art system allows surgeons to perform complex lung cancer procedures through just one small incision, representing a major advance in minimally invasive thoracic surgery.
“This technology represents a huge leap forward in how we treat lung cancer,” said Dr. Khandhar. “Our goal is always to deliver the best possible care with the least impact on the patient — and single-port robotic surgery helps us do just that.” Dr. Sandeep J. Khandhar, Thoracic Surgeon, Virginia Cancer Specialists
With this milestone, Virginia Cancer Specialists joins an elite group of only 10 programs in the United States currently using this innovative technology.
Please join us in celebrating Dr. Khandhar’s exceptional contributions to surgical innovation and medical education.
