Clinical Interest for Patients
I have particular interest in the treatment of urologic cancers including bladder, prostate, kidney, testicular, penile and ureteral cancers. I believe in providing the most advanced technology and care for patients with urologic cancers. I have a special interest in perioperative care. I offer the following procedures robotic bladder (cystectomy/cystoprostatectomy) and urinary diversion creation (Ileal conduit, Indiana Pouch and Neobladder. I also offer robotic removal of: adrenal glands, prostate (prostatectomy), kidney (nephrectomy), partial kidney (partial nephrectomy/nephron sparing surgery), minimally invasive surgery, retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, inguinal lymph node removal, ureteral removal (partial ureterectomy).
Care Philosophy
I believe in providing the best care for urological cancer patients. This includes a multidisciplinary approach as well as the most advanced technology. Working with patients in developing a treatment plan is extremely important in the treatment of urologic cancers. Patients with urologic cancers often have unique needs and these must be recognized. I hope that through the latest developments in surgery and cancer care we can provide the best urologic cancer care. I perform over 70+ robot assisted bladder removal cases per year (radical cystectomies). I perform almost all urinary diversions inside of the body with the robot and without making a larger incision.
