Paul L Crispen, MD : Bio and credentials
Cancer Specialist (Oncologist), Urologist
My bio
As a urologic oncologist, I specialize in the surgical treatment of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder, kidney and ureters. My training as a Urologic Oncologist began at Temple University School Medicine where I received my medical degree and completed a Urology residency. Following completion of residency I received fellowship training in Urologic Oncology at the Mayo Clinic.
My clinical interests focus on the surgical management of bladder cancer, including radical cystectomy and minimally invasive techniques such as laparoscopic robotic cystectomy. While my practice focuses on the surgical management of urologic malignancies I place great emphasis on multidisciplinary cancer care involving medical and radiation oncologists.
My research interest is primarily related to improving the evaluation and treatment of patients presenting with genitourinary malignancies. To date, most of my research effort has focused on the management of bladder and kidney cancer. Additionally, I have a strong interest in involving appropriately selected patients in clinical trials which are designed to evaluate new treatment regimens and hopefully improve the care of patients at the University of Florida and beyond.
