Arvin George, MD, serves as Director of Prostate Cancer Programs and Associate Professor (PAR) of Urology at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland. He is a urologic surgeon who specializes in the diagnosis and management of genitourinary cancers. After obtaining his medical degree from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, he completed his urology residency at the Smith Institute for Urology at the Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine. He remained there to complete his endourology fellowship in New York, gaining additional subspecialty expertise in robotic, laparoscopic, and percutaneous surgery. Subsequently, he completed a urologic oncology fellowship at the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health. Dr. George’s research interests include minimally-invasive and image-guided treatments, functional prostate imaging, and focal therapy for prostate cancer. His research aims to identify appropriate use for imaging in diagnosis, risk stratification, and management of prostate cancer, including active surveillance and selection/treatment of patients with novel focal therapy modalities.
