Hiren Patel, MD, PHD

About Me

I am a reconstructive urologist specializing in caring for patients who sustained loss of urinary and genital function after trauma or cancer treatments. Trained in genitourinary trauma and reconstructive urologic surgery, I treat a variety of conditions including incontinence, erectile dysfunction, urethral strictures, ureteral strictures, radiation injuries, and devastated bladder. I also provide surgical options for buried penis and can perform minimally invasive surgeries.

As a reconstructive urologist, I have a unique opportunity to support and empower people through some of the most vulnerable stages of their disease process. I am passionate about doing all I can to help restore each person’s quality of life, and my patients can expect compassion and empathy in every encounter. I believe in a holistic approach to care and always tailor treatment plans to the patient’s specific needs and values.

I enjoy working in academic medicine because of the collegial and collaborative environment. My research focuses on the impact of social determinants of health on cancer survivorship and quality improvement projects that can aid in expediting and providing the best care to patients. I have published over 50 peer-reviewed publications, book chapters, and reviews.

It’s a privilege to practice alongside such exceptional multidisciplinary experts here at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and to offer the best care possible to our patients.
