About

Dr. Hannah Agard is a pioneering pediatric urologic surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for the youngest and most vulnerable patients. Her work centers on the application of robotic-assisted surgery in pediatric populations, particularly for complex renal and ureteral conditions. Dr. Agard’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic partial nephrectomy in children, as documented in her highly cited 2022 study from a large pediatric hospital (9 citations). She has also led a multi-institutional comparative analysis of open versus robot-assisted approaches for ureteropelvic junction obstruction in infants under 12 months, a groundbreaking study that addresses a critical gap in pediatric surgical literature. Her research is notable for its focus on optimizing outcomes in neonates and infants, challenging traditional surgical paradigms. With cumulative citations reflecting the growing interest in pediatric robotic surgery, Dr. Agard’s work is shaping best practices and expanding the boundaries of what is possible in pediatric urology.
