About
Dewei Gao is a leading researcher in geriatric urology and perioperative medicine, whose work focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes for older patients with complex chronic conditions. His landmark 2023 study on surgical and medical co-management (SMC) for elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RRP) represents a paradigm shift in prostate cancer care. By demonstrating that integrated SMC protocols significantly reduce complications and improve recovery in this vulnerable population, Gao has addressed a critical gap in urologic oncology—the management of patients who are often deemed high-risk for surgery. This work, already garnering 4 citations since its publication, has established a new standard for multidisciplinary care in robotic surgery. Gao’s research bridges the gap between surgical innovation and geriatric medicine, providing evidence-based frameworks that enable older patients with comorbidities to safely access life-saving procedures. His contributions are particularly timely given the aging global population and rising prevalence of chronic diseases, positioning him as a key voice in the movement toward personalized, collaborative surgical care.
