Bio
Biography
Dr. Jeremy Richmon's clinical interests include head and neck cancer, skull base surgery, robotic surgery, and microvascular reconstruction of the head and neck. Dr. Richmon is the director of the head and neck surgery robotic program at Johns Hopkins Hospital. He is using the surgical robot to assist with removing tumors from the throat and larynx through the mouth as well as performing robotic thyroidectomy. Dr. Jeremy Richmon has been working closely with the Whiting School of Engineering at Johns Hopkins University to push the boundaries of current robotic technology specifically for applications within the head and neck.
Dr. Richmon has been an active participant in resident education at Johns Hopkins Hospital. He is the residency education preceptor for the head and neck surgery rotation. He is currently working with the Department of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University in developing a residency training curriculum specific for head and neck robotic surgery. This endeavor promises to set the standard for future robotic training in head and neck surgery.
