Michael Palese, M.D., is an American urologist specializing in robotic, laparoscopic and endoscopic surgery, with a special emphasis on robotic surgeries relating to kidney cancer and kidney stone disease.[1][2]

Palese is an Associate Professor and Medical Director of the Department of Urology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and serves as the Director of Minimally Invasive Surgery at the Mount Sinai Medical Center, both in New York City. As a board-certified urologist and fellowship-trained surgeon, he specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of kidney, bladder and prostate disease.

Palese is the author of multiple book chapters and more than sixty scientific articles and abstracts. He is among the few surgeons in the United States trained in open, laparoscopic and robotic kidney procedures, of which he has performed over 2,000.[3] He has been included in Castle Connolly's lists of America's “Top Doctors” and the New York Times list of “Superdoctors” in 2009, 2010 and 2011.[4]

Biography

Palese graduated from Cornell University in 1993 with a double major degree in biology and German studies and a minor degree in Human Biology. He received his M.D. from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in 1997. He completed his general surgery and urology residency at the University of Maryland Medical Center and performed research at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he was a research resident and fellow. He finished a fellowship in robotic and laparoscopic surgery at Weill Cornell Medical College of Cornell University in 2004.[5]

In 2004, Palese joined the Mount Sinai Medical Center where he established the robotic surgery program for the Department of Urology. He served as the Chief of Urology at the North General Hospital in New York City from 2004-2008.[1]

Palese is on the Medical Advisory Board of the National Kidney Foundation of Greater New York and as a consultant for The Journal of Urology. He is on the steering committee for the Initiative on Kidney Cancer (sponsored by the National Kidney Foundation) and serves on the Medical Advisory Board to the New York Giants.[6] He is a member of the American Medical Association (AMA), the American Urological Association (AUA), the New York section of the American Urological Association, and the Society of Laparoscopic Surgeons (SLS).[7][8]

Palese is a faculty member for the Basic Laparoscopy Course (sponsored by the American Urological Association in Houston, Texas). He has been featured in news media including the New York Daily News, CBS and WPIX.[2][3][9]
