Sanjay Razdan MD MCh FRCS (Glasg) Professor and Chair International Robotic Institute for Prostate Cancer Director and Chief Urologist Urologic Cancer Surgery Director Lumenis Center of Excellence for Endourology and Robotics Robotic Prostate Program Center of Excellence for Robotic Surgery at HCA Florida Kendall Hospital Director Endourology & Robotic Oncology Fellowship Program Larkin University Hospital Miami FL   Sanjay Razdan MD MCh FRCS (Glasg) is the Professor and Chairman of the International Robotic Institute for Prostate Cancer a globally recognized state of the art facility dedicated exclusively to prostate cancer treatment. He is the former Director of the Urology Center of Excellence and the former Chairman of the Department of Surgery at Jackson South Hospital in Miami. As one of the global leaders in robotic prostate surgery for prostate cancer his series is among the largest by a single surgeon in the World. Dr. Razdan is also one of the pioneers in successfully performing salvage robotic prostate surgery after radiation high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and cryoablation failures. He has continually run a successful fellowship program in endourology and robotic urologic oncology for over 15 years and has mentored many young urologists who are in leadership positions in academia and private practice.   A pioneering researcher scientist and oncologic surgeon Dr. Razdan has numerous ground-breaking innovations and publications in the field of prostate cancer.  His technique of maximal urethral length preservation (MULP) has been recognized as a significant predictor of early return of continence after robotic radical prostatectomy (RALP) and was recently shown to preserve penile length post RALP as well. He is also credited with devising an intra-operative physician assigned grading system for nerve preservation during RALP (IOPAG). He was the author of the first textbook devoted solely to the outcomes of robotic prostate surgery published by Springer International in 2016.   Shirin Razdan MD Associate Professor Miami Robotic Surgery at the Comprehensive Urologic Surgery Institute Robotic Kidney Program Center of Excellence for Robotic Surgery at HCA Florida Kendall Hospital Associate Director Endourology & Robotic Oncology Fellowship Program Larkin University Hospital Miami FL   Shirin Razdan MD is Associate Professor of Miami Robotic Surgery at the Comprehensive Urologic Surgery Institute.
