About

Dr. David Greenwald is a leading figure in the field of reconstructive urology and gender-affirming surgery, with a focused expertise in advanced robotic techniques for complex pelvic reconstruction. His most impactful work centers on the refinement and application of the Davydov technique for vaginoplasty, a critical procedure for transgender women and patients with vaginal agenesis. Dr. Greenwald’s seminal 2020 paper, “Single Port and Multiport Approaches for Robotic Vaginoplasty With the Davydov Technique,” which has garnered 43 citations, stands as a key contribution to the literature. In this work, he systematically compared single-port and multiport robotic platforms, demonstrating the feasibility and potential advantages of minimally invasive approaches in improving surgical outcomes and reducing morbidity. This research has helped standardize robotic-assisted vaginal reconstruction, offering surgeons a reproducible, evidence-based framework. By pushing the boundaries of what is possible with robotic surgery, Dr. Greenwald has directly enhanced the safety and efficacy of gender-affirming care, making a profound impact on patient quality of life. His work continues to shape the next generation of reconstructive surgeons.
