About
Dr. Jenny Nguyen is a urologic oncology researcher whose work focuses on improving surgical outcomes for prostate cancer patients, particularly through the lens of health equity. Her most-cited study, "Perioperative factors contributing to delayed return of continence after radical prostatectomy: The role of race and comorbidities" (2022), represents a critical contribution to the field. In this retrospective analysis of patients treated with robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) at a tertiary cancer center, Dr. Nguyen systematically characterized how patient race and pre-existing comorbidities independently predict delays in regaining urinary continence—a key quality-of-life outcome. By isolating these perioperative factors, her work provides actionable insights for personalized preoperative counseling and risk stratification. While her citation count is modest at this early career stage, the clinical relevance of her findings positions her as an emerging voice in addressing disparities in surgical recovery. Dr. Nguyen’s research bridges the gap between technical surgical excellence and the nuanced social determinants that shape patient outcomes, offering a roadmap for more equitable post-prostatectomy care. Her dedication to evidence-based, patient-centered urologic oncology promises to influence both clinical practice and future health policy.
