About
In Gab Jeong is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work sits at the forefront of minimally invasive and robotic urological surgery, with particular focus on nephrectomy and radical prostatectomy. His research has systematically evaluated the clinical and economic dimensions of robotic-assisted surgical techniques, generating insights that have meaningfully shaped modern urological practice. Jeong's most influential contribution — cited over 230 times — rigorously examined national trends in robotic versus laparoscopic radical nephrectomy across more than a decade of U.S. healthcare data, illuminating both outcomes and cost implications at a population level. Complementing this, his comparative studies of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy against open and laparoscopic approaches demonstrated robotic surgery's association with earlier renal functional recovery, supported by objective scintigraphic evidence. His prostatectomy research, including a 146-citation study on functional outcomes following radical prostatectomy, has helped clinicians and patients better understand what drives recovery of urinary and sexual function after surgery. Beyond technique comparison, Jeong has addressed critical systems-level questions, including the impact of surgeon volume on robotic partial nephrectomy outcomes and the national incidence of unsuccessful partial nephrectomy. His body of work — spanning prospective randomized trials, systematic reviews, and large database analyses — reflects both scientific rigor and a genuine commitment to optimizing patient outcomes in urological oncology.
