BackTable Urology · Ep. 330 Establishing a Comprehensive Cancer Survivorship Practice with Dr. Hiren Patel · 22 Sep 2026 podcast

But are you the only person probably in the world who takes urology exams and is like, oh, thank God.

I know tuberculosis isn't the answer for this one.

Oh, you're going to tell them like, I'm the guy for you, right?

Like you have to.

Oh my God.

I love that.

Traditionally, when urologists think of survivorship, you know, I think many of our minds go to post-prostatectomy troubles, you know, erectile dysfunction, stress urinary incontinence, you know, the classic penile prostheses and artificial urinary sphincters are what people, you know, often think of when they think of urologic survivorship.

But survivorship today, I really feel at least kind of where we work is much broader.

You know, it deals with complex pelvic radiation, sequela, treatments of multiple different types of visceral cancers, novel systemic therapies.

How do you define survivorship from the perspective of a reconstructive urologist?

survivorship is going to look like.

And why is it the domain of a reconstructive urologist as opposed to an oncologist?

And how do you help people shift direction?

Their focus as patients when they when they get sent from an oncologist where I think very often worried about the cancer, their survival as opposed to their survivorship, things like recurrence.

You know, how do you broach the survivorship process?

paradigm or kind of like mindset with them where, okay, we're either got things under control or maybe sometimes we don't, but we're going to shift our focus a little bit.

And appointments with me are going to be discussing survivorship, discussing quality of life, discussing symptoms, as opposed to discussing mortality and, and overall survival.

Do you ever find folks who are still coping with either anger or disappointment, frustration about the side effects that they're experiencing?

You know, I see this a lot with radiation, but I'm sure we see it with, you know, immunotherapy or or chemotherapy as well.
