Improving Patient Care and Outcomes
Dr. Patel has developed techniques in robotic surgery that have translated to significantly better patient care and outcomes. His innovations have helped improve cancer treatment and return of early urinary continence and sexual function.
Dr. Patel also authored the first textbook on robotic urologic surgery, written several textbook chapters, and published over 100 articles in peer-reviewed journals.
