There is a focus on resident autonomy with emphasis on resident driven decision making. We offer very robust clinical experiences with general and fellowship trained urologists that includes general adult urology, pediatric urology, female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery, male reconstructive urologic surgery, endourology, minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic urologic surgery, urologic oncology and infertility. There is a robust program in robotic surgery training as we perform numerous robotic procedures including: prostatectomy, adrenalectomy nephrectomy, partial nephrectomy, retroperitoneal partial nephrectomy, cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion, sacrocolopexy, ureteral reimplantation, and inguinal lymphadenectomy. Our training hospitals (adult, children's, and VA hospitals) and clinics are located on our central campus with one private hospital rotation in North Oklahoma City. In addition to clinical experiences, we also offer significant opportunities for urologic research in basic science and clinical research. Show less

As a member of UTSW Quality Improvement and Patient Safety Program, I underwent intensive quality improvement education following my MS1 year and helped lead a QI initiative under the direction of Dr. Philip Greilich. This project has focused on reducing perioperative non-routine events by improving the reliability of patient handoffs from the cardiac OR to the ICU at our university hospital. In this handoff re-design process, my responsibilities have included analyzing baseline characteristics… Show more As a member of UTSW Quality Improvement and Patient Safety Program, I underwent intensive quality improvement education following my MS1 year and helped lead a QI initiative under the direction of Dr. Philip Greilich. This project has focused on reducing perioperative non-routine events by improving the reliability of patient handoffs from the cardiac OR to the ICU at our university hospital. In this handoff re-design process, my responsibilities have included analyzing baseline characteristics of current handoffs, reviewing literature, process mapping, performing a stakeholder analysis, creating an evaluation tool assessing technical and non-technical elements of a handoff, leading simulations for designing the “ideal” handoff, developing a trained observer curriculum, handoff re-design implementation, post-intervention surveying, and data analysis. This has resulted in numerous abstract and poster presentations. Show less

Summer program funded by the R25E “Cancer Prevention Education: Student Research Experiences” training grant. I assisted in an NIH study identifying Topiramate’s therapeutic role in smoking and alcohol cessation by assessing its impact on the motivational salience of drug-related and emotional cues utilizing EEG methodology. My role was screening potential study participants and data collection during follow-up interviews. Furthermore, I conducted a literature review on the safety and current… Show more Summer program funded by the R25E “Cancer Prevention Education: Student Research Experiences” training grant.

My role was screening potential study participants and data collection during follow-up interviews. Furthermore, I conducted a literature review on the safety and current trends of electronic cigarette use for future investigations by the principal investigator. The summer culminated in both an oral and poster presentation. Show less
