About the Provider
Robert "Steven" Gerhard, MD is a board-certified urologist, fellowship-trained robotic prostate cancer surgeon, and Assistant Professor of Urology at Emory University.
Dr. Gerhard earned his medical degree and completed both his general surgery internship and urology residency at Emory University, a nationally recognized leader in academic medicine. He went on to complete advanced fellowship training in robotic urologic surgery under the mentorship of Dr. Ronney Abaza, one of the world’s most experienced robotic urologic surgeons. His training emphasized cutting-edge, minimally invasive techniques—particularly robotic prostatectomy—designed to improve cancer outcomes, reduce complications, and promote faster recovery.
Dr. Gerhard provides comprehensive, high-quality care for a wide range of urologic conditions, including prostate cancer, bladder cancer, kidney stones, and urinary symptoms related to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Known for his thoughtful and compassionate approach, he is deeply committed to understanding the unique needs and goals of each patient and delivering personalized care with the same attention and respect he would offer his own family.
His clinical practice is based at Emory University Hospital Midtown and the Emory Winship Cancer Institute—Georgia’s only National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center and a nationally recognized leader in cancer care

It has been an absolute pleasure to be Dr. Gerhard's patient. He was able to give a name to a medical problem that many other doctors, over 15 years, couldn't identify. His professionalism, care, and attention to detail have proven to be unparalleled, and I am very thankful for the effort he has devoted to my case.
