About
Dr. Jeffrey S. Goodwin is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing value-based care in robotic surgery, with a particular focus on prostate cancer treatment. His research rigorously examines the intersection of surgical technique, patient outcomes, and healthcare economics. In his highly cited 2019 study, "Examining and Understanding Value," Dr. Goodwin provided a landmark analysis of how preoperative patient characteristics, intraoperative decisions, and postoperative complications directly impact the cost of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. This work, cited 17 times, has been instrumental in helping hospitals and surgeons understand the true drivers of surgical value, moving beyond simple volume metrics to a more nuanced model of quality-based reimbursement. Dr. Goodwin’s contributions are shaping how the field defines and measures surgical success, offering a framework that balances clinical excellence with financial sustainability. His scholarship is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of surgical oncology, healthcare policy, or the practical implementation of value-based care models in high-cost robotic procedures.
