Dr Arianayagam did a two-year fellowship at the University of Miami Miller school of Medicine where he commenced training in robotic cancer surgery. Since his return to Australia in 2011, Dr Arianayagam has honed his skills and is now one of the most experienced cancer surgeons in NSW. He has performed over 1200 robotic procedures and is an expert in prostate, kidney, adrenal and bladder surgery
Dr Arianayagam performs robotic surgery at Nepean public hospital, Norwest Private Hospital and Macquarie University Hospital.
Nepean Hospital runs the busiest public robotic surgery programme in New South Wales. It is one of the most popular training jobs in Australia due to the excellent teaching and significant case load. As the supervisor of training and chair of the robotic committee Dr Arianayagam is heavily involved in teaching and mentoring the registrars. Nepean hospital has also been recognised by the European Association of Urology (EAU) Robotic Section (ERUS), Robotic Certified Host Centres as a training centre, one of only two hospitals outside of Europe.
