About

Dominik S. Schoeb is a pioneering urological surgeon and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of robotics, urolithiasis, and surgical innovation. His primary research areas include robotic stone surgery, autonomous wound debridement, and the optimization of robotic prostatectomy procedures. Dr. Schoeb’s major contributions include a seminal systematic review on robotic stone surgery (35 citations), which established the current state and future trajectory of robot-assisted approaches for kidney stone treatment. He has also advanced the field of autonomous surgery through his work on robotic waterjet wound debridement, demonstrating clinical workflow adaptations for this novel technology. Notably, his research on cerebral oxygenation during the Trendelenburg position in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy has informed perioperative safety protocols. Dr. Schoeb’s recent development of a robotic system for solo surgery in flexible ureterorenoscopy represents a significant step toward reducing the need for surgical assistants. His work on the learning curve for perineal robot-assisted prostate biopsy and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) principles for robotic prostatectomy patients further underscores his commitment to improving surgical outcomes and efficiency. With over 70 total citations across his most impactful papers, Dr. Schoeb continues to shape the future of robotic urological surgery.
