Faculty

Dr. Eun completed his urology residency and 18-month minimally invasive urologic robotic oncology fellowship at Henry Ford Hospital’s Vattikuti Urology Institute in Detroit. In 2008, he took his first appointment at the University of Pennsylvania and in 2012, Dr. Eun was recruited to his alma mater, Temple University, in Philadelphia. In July 2025, he moved his practice to Thomas Jefferson University, where he will continue to train residents and fellows as a member of the teaching faculty in the role of Robotics Fellowship Director and Director of the Urology International Program at Jefferson Health.

Dr. Eun runs a regional and national high-volume referral practice for robotic treatment of genitourinary oncology as well as complex reconstructive surgery of the kidney, ureter, prostate and bladder. He currently has one of the busiest complex robotic re-operative and reconstructive practices in the world. He has performed >5000 robotic procedures and more than 50 different types of robotic procedures. Dr. Eun is regarded as a thought leader in advanced robotic surgery techniques, robotic procedure innovation, robotic technology development and advanced level robotic surgical training. He is widely considered one of the founders of the field of robotic reconstructive surgery.

Since 2008, Dr. Eun has offered fellowship training and currently offers a one-year fellowship in advanced robotic urologic oncology and reconstructive surgery at Jefferson Health through the Endourologic Society. He has published over 150 peer-reviewed journal articles or book chapters and presented nearly 300 research abstracts globally. Dr. Eun has taught numerous robotics masters-level classes, resident/fellow courses in robotics and lectured in over a dozen countries and for numerous international societies and training programs. He has performed over 50 live robotic surgery demonstrations at various international university medical centers and at large conference venues such as the American Urologic Association and North American Robotic Urologic Symposium. In 2015, Dr. Eun was appointed as an honorary Professor of Urology at Nanchang University in the People’s Republic of China for his numerous teaching contributions. In 2023, he received a medal of commendation from the Republic of Uzbekistan’s Minister of Health for contributions to help improve the national health system. Since 2024, Dr Eun has worked closely with the Kuwaiti Ministry of Health to teach advanced robotic techniques and help raise the bar for their local surgeons. He is an editor for the first textbook on robotic reconstructive surgery as one of the founders of this newly burgeoning sub-specialty of urology
