Dr. Sharpe received his bachelors degree in chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 1994. After obtaining his Medical Degree from East Carolina University School of Medicine in 2000, he completed a surgical internship at Texas Tech University, where he worked under Dr. Bernard Mittemeyer whose prostatectomy technique is the basis of today’s robotic prostatectomy. Dr. Sharpe completed his Urology Residency at Emory University in 2005 and is board certified by the American Board of Urology.

Dr. Sharpe treats all urological conditions but has special interests in prostate cancer and erectile dysfunction. Since arriving in 2005, he has expanded the minimally invasive treatment options in the area and made them more widely available to patients of north Alabama. He is the area’s first and most experienced robotic surgeon, offering robotic surgery for kidney cancer, cystocele/pelvic prolapse, and kidney drainage reconstruction ( i.e. pyleoplasty). He is also the first urologist to complete laparoscopic procedures such as kidney radiofrequency, pyleoplasty, and pure laparoscopic radical nephrectomy in this area.
