Daniel D. Eun MD

Dr. Eun is a Professor of Urology at Temple University School of Medicine, Chief of Robotic Surgery, and Director of Minimally Invasive Robotic Urologic Oncology & Reconstruction at Temple University Hospital. He is the Surgical Director of Temple Hospital’s Bloodless Care Program and also serves as Director of Temple’s Robotics Training Center and Temple’s Robotic Urologic Surgery Fellowship Training Program. A diplomate of the American Board of Urology, he earned his BS from Pennsylvania State University, MD from Temple University School of Medicine, and completed a general surgery internship at Pennsylvania Hospital. Dr. Eun also completed a urology residency and an 18-month minimally invasive urologic robotic oncology fellowship at Henry Ford Hospital’s Vattikuti Urology Institute in Detroit. He trained under Dr. Mani Menon, who is regarded as the “father of robotic prostatectomy,” originally earning the title in the early 2000s when robotics in urology was being pioneered and developed at the Vattikuti Urology Institute.

Dr. Eun has performed over 3000 robotic procedures and is an internationally recognized thought leader in advanced robotic surgery techniques, procedure development, and training. He runs a regional high-volume referral practice for robotic removal of complex tumors and cancers of the prostate, bladder, kidney, ureter, testis, and adrenal gland, as well as complex minimally invasive robotic reconstruction of the kidney, ureter, and bladder. Dr. Eun has performed more types of urological robotic procedures (over 50) than anyone in the world, many of which he has developed personally. As a result of Dr. Eun’s work, Temple University Hospital has earned “Robotic Urology Epicenter” status, a prestigious designation awarded only to a few centers of excellence in the world. This program establishes Temple Hospital as a destination center that trains surgical teams worldwide who want to come and learn our techniques.
