My main interest is the management of tumors (both benign and malignant) of the genitourinary tract. I have a particular interest in tumors of the bladder, ureter, penis, and testicles as well as other rare/uncommon tumors of the genitourinary system. I am a proponent of team-oriented patient care, and work very closely with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and other surgeons to treat tumors in a multi-disciplinary fashion. My belief is that team-oriented care gives better outcomes. Wherever possible, I prefer to use minimally invasive surgical techniques such as laparoscopy and robot surgery. The Duke genitourinary oncology team strives to offer novel and often aggressive treatments for patients with few other options. We are open-minded with respect to each patient's circumstance and try to individualize patient care as much as possible. Lastly, research is an important part of my practice. My patients are often approached to participate in clinical trials and other research studies so that we can improve cancer care for future patients. This includes research on quality of life, new diagnostic tests, new treatments, and treatment outcomes.
