About

James C. Jensen is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has helped define the modern era of robotic prostate surgery. His primary research focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer, with a particular emphasis on improving perioperative outcomes and functional recovery. Jensen’s most influential contribution is his landmark 2014 multi-institutional analysis comparing robotic and laparoscopic simple prostatectomy, which has garnered nearly 200 citations and established a new standard for evidence-based surgical decision-making. He also pioneered the “side docking” technique for robotic radical prostatectomy, an innovation that reduces the risk of nerve injury and compartment syndrome associated with traditional patient positioning. Further demonstrating his commitment to patient-centered outcomes, Jensen investigated the impact of obesity on early erectile function recovery after robotic prostatectomy, using validated patient-reported questionnaires to provide actionable insights. Through these contributions, Jensen has not only refined surgical protocols but also shaped how the field evaluates recovery and quality of life, making him a respected authority in robotic urologic surgery.
