About
Dr. Kirsten L. Greene is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving outcomes for men with prostate cancer, particularly through the refinement of robotic-assisted surgical techniques and the management of post-treatment side effects. Her major contributions include pioneering research on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for high-risk prostate cancer, where her 2013 study (57 citations) provided critical evidence that RARP offers comparable oncologic outcomes to open surgery, helping to expand surgical options for complex cases. Dr. Greene also advanced the field of post-prostatectomy continence recovery, notably through a randomized trial (23 citations) investigating an intraoperative autologous retropubic urethral sling to hasten urinary control. More recently, she has been a trailblazer in developing accessible, technology-driven care, creating and evaluating novel online comprehensive pelvic floor rehabilitation programs (2023-2024) to overcome barriers to specialized therapy. Her work has been recognized for its direct impact on clinical practice, blending surgical innovation with patient-centered solutions to enhance quality of life after prostate cancer treatment.
