About
Dr. Aurash Naser-Tavakolian is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing robotic surgery, improving patient outcomes in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), and developing novel patient-reported outcome measures. His major contributions include the creation and validation of a high-fidelity simulation model for managing acute intraoperative hemorrhage during robot-assisted surgery—a critical tool for surgical resident training that has already garnered 8 citations since its 2024 publication. He has also revolutionized the surgical management of ADPKD, demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic bilateral nephrectomy for large polycystic kidneys, with his 2023 technique paper receiving 6 citations and a 2025 comparative study showing superior outcomes over traditional open surgery. Additionally, Dr. Naser-Tavakolian is addressing an unmet need in urology by developing the first patient-reported outcome measure specifically for patients with ureteral stricture disease. His work not only pushes the boundaries of minimally invasive surgery but also prioritizes the patient experience, making him a rising leader in urologic innovation and education.
