About

Dr. Evan Garden is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly in kidney transplantation and bladder cancer care. His major contributions include being among the first to perform single-port robot-assisted donor nephrectomy using the da Vinci SP® Surgical System, a landmark achievement documented in his 2021 paper (16 citations) that has helped define a new frontier in living donor surgery. Dr. Garden has also driven innovation in perioperative care, notably through the implementation of nonopioid protocols following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (2021, 16 citations) and the adoption of antibiogram-directed prophylaxis to reduce infections (2023, 6 citations). His comparative study of single-port robotic versus laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (2024, 12 citations) provides crucial evidence for surgical decision-making. Most recently, his work on immunotherapy-based neoadjuvant treatment and complication rates after radical cystectomy (2025, 4 citations) addresses the evolving landscape of bladder cancer management. With over 50 total citations across his most influential papers, Dr. Garden’s research is shaping safer, more effective surgical approaches that directly impact patient outcomes in urologic oncology and transplantation.
