About
Emily C. Serrell is a health services researcher whose work centers on surgical outcomes, quality of care, and the volume-outcome relationship in urologic oncology. Her most cited study, a systematic review of the volume-outcome relationship for radical prostatectomy (2017, 80 citations), critically synthesized evidence that higher surgical volumes are associated with better patient outcomes, shaping clinical guidelines and policy discussions around centralization of complex cancer care. Beyond this landmark review, Serrell’s research has examined disparities in treatment access, perioperative complications, and long-term survivorship, often leveraging large administrative databases to generate actionable insights. Her work has been cited by major clinical societies and informs ongoing efforts to improve surgical quality and equity. Serrell’s contributions are particularly notable for bridging rigorous evidence synthesis with real-world implications for patients and providers, making her a key voice in the movement toward value-based surgical care. Her scholarship continues to influence how urologists, hospitals, and policymakers approach high-risk procedures in an era of increasing specialization.
