About
George D. Webster is a leading urologist whose research has significantly advanced the surgical management of male stress urinary incontinence, particularly following prostatectomy. His most influential work focuses on optimizing outcomes with the AdVance male sling, a minimally invasive procedure for post-prostatectomy incontinence. Webster’s landmark study demonstrated that preoperative pad weight—specifically, large volume leakage—is a strong predictor of sling failure, providing clinicians with a critical tool for patient selection and counseling. This finding, published in the *Journal of Urology*, has shaped clinical guidelines and helped refine surgical candidacy, ensuring that patients with severe incontinence are directed toward more effective treatments like the artificial urinary sphincter. With over three decades of experience at Duke University Medical Center, Webster has authored numerous peer-reviewed articles and textbook chapters, establishing himself as a key authority in reconstructive urology and neurourology. His work continues to influence how urologists evaluate and treat complex incontinence, improving quality of life for thousands of men worldwide.
