He was the first Victorian surgeon to perform over 2000 robotic procedures.

In 2008, he published the first Australian series on laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, followed by the first Australian robotic cysto-prostatectomy in 2009. At Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, he established a robotic partial nephrectomy program, publishing the first Australian series in 2014 and the largest series in 2017.

A/Prof Moon is regularly involved in National and International scientific meetings since convening Australia’s first robotic surgical masterclasses in 2011. He has developed comprehensive training and credentialing documents for surgeons learning robotic surgery, is involved in fellowship training in robotics and has served on the Editorial Board of the British Journal of Urology International.

At the other end of the cancer spectrum, A/Prof Moon offers help for men regaining quality of life after prostate cancer treatment. He has developed a high volume urological prosthetics practice, restoring continence and potency in men following prostate cancer treatment.
