About
Justin S. Peters is a pioneering urological surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, particularly in the treatment of prostate and bladder cancer. Based primarily in Melbourne, Australia, Peters has been instrumental in establishing and refining robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP), contributing landmark studies on its oncological outcomes, functional results, and patient safety across diverse populations, including obese patients and those with high-risk localized prostate cancer. His most cited work, a 2009 study documenting outcomes from 400 robotic prostatectomy cases (208 citations), remains a foundational reference in the field. His early 2005 research on telerobotic surgery implementation helped establish the feasibility and educational framework for training surgeons in this emerging technology. Peters has continuously pushed boundaries, exploring intracorporeal urinary diversion following robotic cystectomy, intraoperative neurovascular bundle stimulation, and most recently, same-day discharge protocols for prostatectomy patients. His longitudinal perspective on 12 years of robotic prostatectomy trends in Melbourne further underscores his commitment to advancing Australian urological practice. Collectively, his research portfolio reflects a career dedicated to improving surgical precision, patient recovery, and oncological outcomes.
