Personal profile
Research Interests
I am currently conducting research into the genetics of prostate cancer which could lead to new tests for the disease as well as possible new means of treating or preventing prostate cancer. I specialize in prostate cancer surgery and am recognized as an expert in performing the "nerve-sparing" radical prostatectomy that can preserve sexual potency.
