Rashid Sayyid, MD

I encourage a patient-centered approach to care that emphasizes patients’ goals, values, and concerns through shared decision making and a clear understanding of their medical condition, while integrating the latest evidence and advanced technologies to meet each patient’s needs.

Urologic Oncology, all aspects, including: prostate cancer, robotic radical prostatectomy, bladder cancer, cystectomy and urinary diversion (robotic and open diversion techniques), kidney cancer surgery, including vena cava thrombus, partial and radical nephrectomies (both transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approaches), urothelial cancer of the upper tracts, testis cancer, penile cancer

My clinical interests focus on delivering timely, patient-centered care to individuals with urologic cancers, with an emphasis on access to novel systemic therapies and advanced surgical techniques. My research interests include clinical trials for patients with advanced prostate cancer, strategies to improve perioperative outcomes following pelvic surgery, and health services research aimed at better understanding long-term outcomes for prostate cancer survivors. Outside of medicine, I enjoy outdoor running, weight lifting, traveling, and attending sporting events, particularly Formula 1, tennis, and soccer.
