Summary

I was awarded the Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholarship that enabled me to pursue further training in the United States. After a Residency in Urology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, I completed a fellowship in Urologic Oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Currently, I am the Chairman of the Department of Urology and Director of Robotic Surgery at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. I have published several scientific papers, abstracts and book chapters in Urology. I also serves as the Assistant Editor for the Journal of Urology, the pre eminent journal in the field.
