Research Interests

My research interests are primary focused on Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in infants, children and young adults undergoing urologic surgery. ERAS is a set of multidisciplinary strategies to increase speed of recovery, minimize pain, and reduce time in the hospital. It is more widely used in adult populations, but we have shown it can be applied safely to children undergoing surgery with tremendous benefits (faster recovery, fewer complications, decreased variation of care from patient to patient). We are excited to apply it to a broader set of urologic surgery.
