About

Christian Fiebig is a clinical researcher focused on improving outcomes for prostate cancer patients undergoing radical prostatectomy. His work centers on patient-reported outcomes, treatment decision-making, and the impact of surgical technique and hospital certification on quality of life. Fiebig’s major contributions include leading the multicenter IMPROVE study, which has produced key insights into how surgical approach and center certification affect patient regret and recovery. His most cited work (9 citations) revealed that patients who undergo robot-assisted radical prostatectomy report significantly less regret about their treatment choice compared to those who have open surgery—a finding that directly informs shared decision-making. A subsequent study (4 citations) demonstrated that patients treated at certified prostate cancer centers experience better functional outcomes, such as reduced stress urinary incontinence. By centering the patient’s voice through validated surveys, Fiebig provides actionable evidence that helps surgeons and hospitals optimize care pathways. His research bridges the gap between surgical innovation and real-world patient experience, making him a valuable contributor to evidence-based urologic oncology.
