Dr. Robert Smith, MD
View all ratingsUrology480 Red Hill RdMiddletown, NJ 0774814 miles awayBiographyI am a surgeon with more than 20 years of experience in caring for patients with bladder cancer, kidney cancer, and prostate cancer. I specialize in both complex open surgery and minimally invasive surgical techniques. My practice is located at Memorial Hospital in Manhattan, as well as Memorial Sloan Kettering Basking Ridge and MSK Monmouth, in New Jersey. I was drawn to a career in medicine after losing my mother to kidney disease at a young age. During medical school, I wanted to become a kidney transplant surgeon, but when I observed the urologists during my residency, I realized that was my passion. Having a personal connection to my work motivates me to do everything I can for my patients. When a patient comes in for an appointment, I spend a lot of time reviewing their medical history and diagnosis with them. This is especially true for people who are seeking a second opinion. It's important that people feel well informed so that they can make the best possible decisions about their care. By the time the appointment is over, I hope my patients feel they have a thorough understanding of their disease, and that I'll always be available to help guide them through this complex time.

Dr. Brett Carver, MD
View all ratingsUrology353 E 68th StNew York, NY 1006516 miles awayCare PhilosophyI am a urologic surgeon whose clinical practice focuses on the care of patients with urologic malignancies with emphasis on prostate and testicular cancers, and the minimally invasive surgical techniques (laparoscopy) used to treat these malignancies. In my clinical research, I am evaluating the outcome of patients following treatment for prostate cancer or testis cancer, with the goal of improving overall cancer therapy for these patients. My interests currently focus on the quality-of-life issues facing cancer survivors and how different therapies may impact these quality-of-life issues. Additionally, I have maintained an active role in translational research studying the molecular pathways responsible for prostate cancer initiation and progression. Through this work we hope to identify important pathways in tumorigenesis that may have diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications. Collectively, these studies have resulted in several national meeting presentations and peer-review journal publications.

Dr. Karim Touijer, MD
View all ratingsUrology353 E 68th StNew York, NY 1006516 miles awayCare PhilosophyI am a surgeon who specializes in the treatment of genitourinary cancers (prostate, kidney, bladder, testis, and adrenals). My primary interest is the study of innovative minimally invasive surgical techniques -- such as laparoscopy, robotic-assisted laparoscopy, and image-guided therapies -- to treat prostate, kidney, bladder, testicular, and adrenal cancers. I am an expert in the use of advanced laparoscopic surgical techniques to treat urologic cancers. The types of surgery I perform include: Nerve Sparing Laparoscopic or Robotic Radical Prostatectomy (removal of the prostate) for prostate cancer Laparoscopic Radical Cystectomy (removal of the bladder) and Urinary Diversion for invasive bladder cancer Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy (removal of the tumor only and preserving the rest of the kidney) for kidney cancers. I am fortunate to have world-class colleagues from medical oncology, radiology, and radiation oncology with whom I work closely in a multidisciplinary fashion to offer the best treatment for our patients. My clinical research focuses on the comparison of minimally invasive surgery to conventional open surgery with regards to cancer control and impact on the quality of life of our patients. An additional focus of my research is the development of continuous quality improvement and assessing its impact on surgical outcome. After a completing a fellowship in urologic oncology and advanced laparoscopic oncology at MSKCC, I joined the attending staff of MSKCC's Urology Service in 2004. I am board certified by the American Board of Urology, a member of the Society of Urologic Oncology, the American Urological Association, the European Association of Urology, and other national and international societies; additionally I serve as a reviewer for a number of peer-reviewed urology and cancer journals.
