Dr. Georges-Pascal Haber is an internationally recognized urologist and robotic surgery specialist associated with Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. His clinical interests include advanced urological surgery, prostate and kidney procedures, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. In addition to his medical responsibilities, he serves as the hospital's chief executive officer and has held senior academic and clinical leadership positions.

His professional background combines surgical practice, research, medical education and healthcare leadership. Dr. Haber previously served as chairman of the Glickman Urological & Kidney Institute at Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. His experience in a major academic urology center contributes to his understanding of complex urological conditions and evolving surgical techniques. His official profile lists 26 years of experience.

Expertise in robotic urological surgery

Robotic surgery is an important component of modern urological care. It can enable surgeons to perform selected procedures through small incisions using specialized instruments and magnified visualization. Depending on the patient's diagnosis, anatomy and overall health, robotic techniques may be considered for prostate, kidney and bladder surgery.

Dr. Haber has particular expertise in robotic urological procedures. His published hospital biography highlights experience with robotic kidney surgery, robotic prostatectomy and complex urinary reconstruction. He has also contributed to developments in minimally invasive approaches, including procedures designed to reduce surgical access requirements in appropriately selected cases. The suitability of any technique depends on the individual clinical situation.

Prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment

Prostate cancer care begins with an assessment of symptoms, medical history, prostate-specific antigen results and other relevant findings. Depending on the clinical circumstances, diagnostic evaluation may include imaging and prostate biopsy.

Treatment options vary according to cancer stage, grade, patient age, general health and personal preferences. These options may include active surveillance, surgery, radiation therapy, medication or a combination of treatments. When surgery is recommended, robotic-assisted prostatectomy may be considered where clinically appropriate.

Patients should discuss potential benefits, complications, recovery time and the effects of treatment on urinary continence and sexual function with their treating team before making a decision.

Kidney and bladder surgery

Urological conditions affecting the kidneys and bladder may require medical management, minimally invasive procedures or major surgery. Kidney cancer, selected benign kidney disorders and complex urinary tract problems require careful diagnostic planning.

Dr. Haber's professional profile includes kidney surgery, robotic nephrectomy, bladder cancer surgery and urinary reconstruction among his treatment areas. Nephrectomy refers to surgical removal of all or part of a kidney when medically indicated. The precise approach depends on the location and nature of the disease, kidney function and other patient-specific factors.

Bladder cancer management can involve endoscopic procedures, bladder-preserving approaches or surgery, depending on disease characteristics. Patients benefit from understanding the purpose of each proposed procedure, possible alternatives and the follow-up plan.

Research, education and professional leadership

Dr. Haber has contributed to scientific literature, with his official biography reporting more than 250 peer-reviewed scientific articles. He has also participated in international academic activities and visiting professorships. These contributions reflect an ongoing involvement in surgical research and medical education alongside clinical practice.

His leadership role at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi also involves responsibilities beyond individual consultations. The institution provides specialist services across multiple disciplines, allowing patients with complex conditions to access multidisciplinary assessment when needed.

Care for international patients

Abu Dhabi attracts patients seeking specialist evaluation and treatment. International patients considering urological surgery should arrange an initial review of medical records, imaging, biopsy results and previous treatment. A consultation can help determine whether an in-person assessment or procedure is appropriate.

Before travelling, patients should request a written treatment plan, an itemized cost estimate, expected hospital stay, recovery guidance and details of postoperative follow-up. They should also clarify whether remote follow-up is available after returning home.

Why consider Dr. Georges-Pascal Haber?

Dr. Haber combines specialist urology practice with extensive experience in robotic surgery, academic work and clinical leadership. His professional interests may be relevant to patients seeking assessment for complex prostate, kidney or bladder conditions. Treatment decisions should always be based on an individualized evaluation rather than a doctor's title or reputation alone.
