To improve patient outcomes and satisfaction, he is skilled in the use of minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic surgery. 

Dr. Hankins attended the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine where he was awarded the distinguished J.K. Robinson award for outstanding achievement and service. He next completed an internship in general surgery at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital followed by his urology residency at MedStar Georgetown and MedStar Washington Hospital Center. While a urology resident, Dr. Hankins also trained at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Children's National Medical Center and the D.C. Veterans Affairs Medical Center. At NIH, he conducted research in surgical approaches to multifocal kidney cancer and has given presentations on the topic.
