About

Dr. Rachel Rubin is a leading urologist and sexual health specialist whose research focuses on the intersection of surgical technique and male sexual function. Her most cited work, a 2020 study on Retzius-sparing versus standard robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy, has garnered 18 citations and represents a pivotal contribution to the field. In this study, Dr. Rubin demonstrated that the Retzius-sparing approach not only improves urinary continence but also significantly reduces the incidence of penile shortening, Peyronie’s disease, and inguinal hernia sequelae—complications that profoundly affect patients’ quality of life. By preserving the dorsal vascular complex and pelvic fascia, her work challenges conventional surgical paradigms and offers men a path to better functional outcomes post-prostatectomy. Dr. Rubin’s research is widely recognized for its practical impact, guiding urologists in optimizing recovery and sexual health. A sought-after speaker and clinician, she continues to advance patient-centered care, making her a vital voice in urology and sexual medicine. Her dedication to bridging surgical innovation with real-world patient experiences underscores her influence in the field.
