In November 2018, Hackensack University Medical Center was among the first hospitals in the world — and the first hospital in New Jersey, and one of only 10 in the U.S. — to acquire the da Vinci SP® single-port system to perform complex urological procedures. Under Dr. Stifelman’s leadership, the team has performed more than 280 single port urological surgeries in 2019-2020 — one of the largest single port surgical series in the world.

Dr. Stifelman joined Hackensack University Medical Center in 2016 from NYU Langone Medical Center in New York, NY, where he served in the following roles: professor of Urology, NYU School of Medicine; director of the Robotic Surgery Center, NYU Langone Medical Center; and chief of Urology Services, Tisch Hospital.
